I recently had my clutch replaced and ever since it has 'squeaked' every time I change gear. I've tried WD40 but no luck - any ideas?

I have the same problem with the squeakiness, sounds like there's a hamster under the pedal

Does the pedal squeek? or does it sound like the clutch..
If its the pedal i would use some 3 in 1 oil not WD40 as thats only meant to be a temp fix.

Definitely the pedal. Where should I squirt the oil - and how much? (Simple explanation please!)

Have a look under the pedal and follow it up.  Just wherever there is a new join/connection.

Ok - will try it - but if WD40 didn't work - will that? Thanks for the replies!

Or use some motorbike chain lube spray, it worked fine on my brake pedal that squeaked, couldn't get the 3 in 1 can at the right angle to squirt the pivot point. Its also a "dry" lube so it wont attract dust/dirt which causes wear.!!!!!
