Squeeking clutch

foxc85

Hi all today my Kia Ceed 2011 clutch start squeeking.When the engine is on or off once i press my foot on the clutch theres a squeek noise.The car drives fine and there are no warning lights on the dash.Could it just need to be oiled or greased? Hopefully not a major issue

Try a bit of spray oil or wd40 on the clutch pedal hinge/return Spring area. Most likely the culprit.

But don't put any on the clutch pedal itself! :eek:

Would I spray it inside the car Ie lean in under the steering wheel and spray in under the pedal?? or is it a job for under the car?

inside the drivers footwell.
Find the pedal , follow it back to the point where it pivots and a few squirts of wd40 on the pivot hinge and spring

Can you elaborate on the fix, so next person with similar issue can try it?

I used wd40 i was able to push the clutch pedal
and spay wd40 along the metal bar , noise has stopped since

Cool, if it happens again you may want to use white lithium instead. It will last longer.
