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 kindasad.gif


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

Bad throw out bearing (release bearing) had same problem when I installed my new clutch got some cheap Chinese TOB lasted 3weeks. Started to make noise, drove for about 1year, finally got pissed. Pulled off trans scrapped TOB and replaced with USA made TIMKEN or you can use JAPAN made SKF.

Had noise when clutch pushed in with engine running, with engine off it wouldnt make noise at all= BAD TOB. Besides that didnt have any other noises.
