Noticed over last week or so, that went changing from 1st to 2nd, there is a slight squeal as I let the clutch up. Not from the pedal area, definately from the clutch itself. Does this mean the clutch is on the way out? Car is driving as normal, no sign of slipping and it doesn't happen on higher gears. Its a 52reg 2.0Hdi, @ 97K. Any ideas please?

Could be thrust bearing which means new clutch time.

Shut it u stupid little f**k, what's the point in posting in all my treads being such a c***? Least I can afford a gti180, and to get the cam belt done!

So apparently everyone knows my financial situation? If I wanted a 180 I would have bought a 180 simples Smile

Yep! If it's chirping anything like mine was its the bearing slipping. Look Into clutch kits. It includes a clutch and bearing. Garages don't like to change just the bearing

Or your slave cylinder. Thats what pushs the clutch in and out.

If the clutch release/thrust bearing is noisy, it's because the bearings are drying out, not slipping. The noise would problably be more noticeable at idle as well, stopping when you put your foot on the clutch. If it is the bearing it could last for miles/years like that as well. But if its definetly the clutch thats squealing in the lower gears (& not aux belts slipping), I reckon it's more likely to be the pressure plate &/or driven plate that's worn.
You can test for clutch slip by selecting a higher gear than normal, then try to accelerate as fast as you can. An increase in engine speed without an increase in acceleration would be a sign that the clutch is on its way out.
