Creaking clutch pedal how do i fix it ??

[Tamthebam]

i have a 2.0 8v gti and when lifting the clutch pedal up it creaks and is slightly sticky any ideas how to fix it , its doing ma nut in cheers

I'm guessing the return spring at the top of the clutch pedal is a bit mucky? WD40 will do wonders.

A failing clutch cable can cause stickiness though, so if the WD40 doesn't fix it, try and look at the clutch cable.

mine was the same. I replaced the clutch cable, solved it!

Oh, and my pedal box has split, and been welded (badly) at some point, and has started to split again. i just bolted a bracket/clamp throught the bulkhead, and it doesnt flex anymore.

Definetely sounds like the pedal box issue. Plenty of threads on here about it.

Kezz you really should have a look at it before it does go and the pedal hits the floor and doesnt come back up.
