Creaky Clutch
I get a creaking noise when I depress the clutch on my manual transmission. I am sure I read somewhere on this forum, that this points towards a particular problem. Can anybody enlighten me please?

There's a helper spring attached to the clutch pedal lever to assist the driver when making gear changes and has nylon/plastic ends which become worn, usually the male portion of the stem. See the item in question on Skandix. You can replace the spring and plastics or you can try spray a dry PTFE lubricant up there or disassemble and apply some white lithium grease.
P.S. ...don't use original WD40 as it's a penetrant, not a lubricant, and will dry out.

Does it only happen when the pedal is being depressed or when it's held down?
If when being depressed, it may be the plastic bush on pedal shaft. If it's there when the pedal is held down it's likely to be the clutch release bearing which means gearbox out job. |

I will check the spring mechanism too, but I am having the gearbox out to replace the main oil seal (didn't change the PCV in time DOH) so I'll check the release bearing at the same time. Thanks
