Squeaky Pedals

Misticles

Ive noticed that the pedals in my car are squeaky.

Seems to be the clutch and accelerator.

Will some lubricant oil do the job?

Is it a Lexus? Every Lexus I have driven has squeaky pedals. A bit of silicone spray on the joints will temporarily ease the squeaking.

Grease is better than oil, it stays where you put it and won't dribble down the pedal arm onto your mat where your shoe can pick it up and transfer it onto the pedal grips.

I wish it was a lexus

Its a colt, 02, I only bought it today and noticed the squeaks.

Where will I get this grease?

You can buy a spray can of it in any motor factors or car accessory shop such as Halfords. You only a tiny bit (no more than a teaspoon full) so scrounge some if you can.

Some motors factors sell a grease called "White Grease", i've
found it very good for these types of jobs. Spray it on the joint
and it doesnt move from where it's sprayed.

Motorbike chain spray does the dame job but is far easier to apply and dose

EDIT ..or see the post above mine

This is the sort of stuff:

It's made by lots of lube manufacturers, and some flavour of it will be carried by every motor factor.

Get one with PTFE in it, for extra slippery goodness.
