I've had my MINI Cooper since July and just this week I started getting a 'creaky' feeling/sound to my clutch pedal...
It feels weird - anyone know what I can do to fix it?
Thanks in advance for any input!! :smile:

Well, at the risk of being a smartie-pants, it should be covered by warranty if you have not yet driven 50000 miles.

I would get under there and see if a couple drops of lubricating oil on just the right spot would make a difference. Knowing what I do know about cars and service technicians, that is the first thing they are going to do when you bring it to the dealer for repair. If it stops squeaking they will say that they" just did a little adjustment and it should be fine now." Save yourself the trouble and time that it will take to bring in in for repair if my suggested fix works like it probably will.

I thought my cluth pedal was squeeking, too, most every time I pushed it in. But, it wasn't the clutch pedal--it was the drivers seat squeeking. Try pushing back in the seat and see it it squeeks. Squeek went away after a few days and has not returned.
