Squeaking clutch noice Options

[glenn]

For years I have had this squeaking when i press the clutch, it sounds like it come from the engine bay rather than the pedals.

Now after the ST205 been in the garage for a year its worse than ever, people on the street turn around if I press the clutch at a stoplight..

It does not sound like a mechanic (as in metal to metal) sound, its more like a uhm, cheap kid whistle.

Any ideas ?

I was thinking of changing the clutch fluid as the first thing, but it looked like it was a PITA to do


..I can add that the clutch works as good as ever

No, it does not matter if the engine is running or not, the sound comes when the clutch pedal is pressed.

So the slave cylinder is accessable from outside, very nice, this is not the case on my SAAB for example

(Sometimes I wish we still would use wirebased clutches instead of hyudralic..)
