my clutch is working perfect
but it squeaks a little bit every now and then
it also happens when the car isn't even on
the sound isnt coming from under the dash its coming from the engine or under the car
i have an ek civic
has anyone else has this problem?

you might want to have a look at the clutch rod, you might find that you have a leaky clutch master, same issue with mine. have to take it next week for a service and i'll get robert or one of his guys at Hanny's to re-kit the clutch master.

i've only had to top up the clutch fluid twice in about 6 months as i noticed the clutch grabing at the bottom.

the squeak would be from the brake fluid seeping in via the clutch rod into the car...

thanks mate
how much do you think it would cost to get fixed
would it be easy to fix with a mate who knows his way around a car pretty well?

just have a look at your gearbox and you will see this black rubber thing,
grab a flat head and take it off, then just grease it up,
thats what i did and the noise has gone ever since

thanks guys
i regreased the slave cylinder and it hasnt squeaked for about a day
so here's hoping that it'll stay that way
thankgod for forums like this, they can really save you alot of money taking it to an overpriced mechanic
so again thanks everyone and thanks ozhonda
