Squeaky clutch pedal

G

Anyone know how I can stop my clutch pedal from sounding like I'm standing on a mouse everytime I use it? Tried wd-40, but that doesn't seem to have done any good...

Also, on a separate note...anyone know roughly how much it would for a full respray? Washed, polished and waxed the car today, there are a few stone chips/stratches that I want to get rid of, but as my car is a complete biatch to colour match, I don't really want to ust touch it up.

Thanks,

Rach.
 
Hey Rach,

The clutch pedal squeak is caused by the return spring expanding & contracting, every manual vehicle does this.

Maybe put a bit of grease on the cable guide @ the top of the pedal, that may quieten it down a bit.

Not too sure about the respray though. :O
 
i got the pedal squeak also and its anoying, look at paying around the £1000 mark for a decent spray job
 
ok thanks guys :) will try greasing the top of the pedal at some point!

hmmm £1k...sounds a lot. Then again, I've just handed sh*tloads more than that over to estate agents for doing bugger all, so it doesn't seem too bad compared to that! lol might have to save some pennies and do it as a future project :)

Thanks again,

Rach.
 
I have this to, girlfriend has it in here car aswell and she told me she pulled over when driving and checked car cause thought she was squashing a mouse! Lol
 
my pedal does my head in to!! u pump the pedal and get someone to spray that spray silicone oil stuff for motobike chain's that worked for me. I got a price to do all the arches (de rust) get the dint out the back, fix my front splitter, all parking dints, re aline my bonnet and a full re spray for 750£ good price i think, he's really good to, my mother smashed her almera and he made it look brand new! but thats in newhartley miles away from you!! just a guide price tho!

Ok will try that thanks :) can get some high grade silicone oil from work, amazing stuff!

Wow, that is a good price! Well my parents live near Newcastle, so it's not far from them really. Sure I'll be visiting there long enough to get a respray at some point. Haven't got a spot of rust on the car :D waxed it today and found none! There are just a lot of stone chips and crazy paint on the bumpers and skirts, would like to get it looking brand spanking new...have to say though after giving the car a really good clean today, it looks rather sexual ;)

Thanks for that johny :) What was the company's name?
