i have a problem with the clutch, when the car is warm and i depress the clutch pedal i can hear squeeky noise from the engine bay, only noticed it when the car was stationry, sounds like an old spring being stretched. is there anything on the clutch lincage or the clutch plate itself that could cause this. the has covered about 17000 miles and does not seem to be exhibiting any other gear box type problems that i have noticed so far. any ideas anybody. regards lennie

The squeaky sound is mostly caused by the diaphragm spring in the pressure plate, if the clutch condition is still OK try to live with if not change the clutch assembly.

Hi,

Had the exact same problem, it was the pressure plate spring, needs the gearbox out to fix/replace the pressure plate to get rid of the sound. Had no other issues with the clutch/gearbox bar the squeak. The sound drove me nuts once I was aware of it, fortunately the car had only done a few thousand miles and they fixed under warranty!
