petrolhead63 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 My TD5 manual has a creaky/squeeky clutch when the pedal is pressed (creak as pedal moves down...not a bearing squeel) . However this occurs when it is all good and warm. When the car is cold it is as quiet and gradually gets worse. I wondered if it could be the slave cylinder getting tight when it is warm? I have known the seals to start seizing. Is this noise a known problem? any ideas welcomed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petrolhead63 Posted May 19, 2008 Author Share Posted May 19, 2008 I have sprayed WD40 everywhere.......the noise seems to come from underneath. I have not had the chance to crawl under listening with someone pressing the pedal yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
