Greetings,
when I press the Clutch, a small squeak noise is being hear.
I think this happens not all the times, but quite frequently.

Anyone else faced that noise 'problem' ???

In order to hear the noise, you should not have music on.

Turn the music up, then  s;) ;) s;)  Sorry.. being serious:

Yep - a few people have reported this in the past - some people have found the pedal itself squeaked, but generally speaking it's from the clutch area itself..

In your case, does it get louder if you open your door, and sound like it's coming from 'under' the car?

I'm trying to remember if it was the clutch slave cylinder (part of the hydraulics) or the release bearing now, and I can't.. A search may turn it up, though  s:) :) s:)

A bearing squeak tends to be there at idle and disappears with light pressure on the pedal.

A squeak as you depress the pedal is something to do with the mechanism between pedal and clutch, or the pedal itself.

i reported this to Mr T at my service, they greased the mechanism and it went away, i recall that they said it was a ball joint

I had the same problem with mine, it only squeeked when it was cold or wet weather.

The dealer said it was the clutch cable rubbing against a pivot.  They lubricated it and it has now gone, although they have to drop the gearbox so the labour is expensive unless your car is still under warranty.
