    Hi,

    I started to hear a pitched squeaking as I press the pedal when I start the car. Noise for a while and afterwards it stops. NO NOISE when I change gear.

    Any experience?

    Are you hearing the noise as the pedal travels to the floor or when you reach the bottom of the pedals travel? If it's the latter I believe a clutch release bearing can be the culprit. As for the primary I once drove a family members skoda Octavia that hadn't been driven for a while and the clutch made a squeak as it was depressed, but it went away after being driven for a bit. Has the car been sitting a while?

    I believe it was the second option as I'm driving it lately and no noise. Thanks for getting back.
