As above, doing my head in a bit....all it'll need I would surmise is some GT85 on the joint and it'll shut up, but how do I get to it ? There is a metal plate on the inside above the pedal with six bolts in it but they look a bit heavy duty to be holding a plate in place so they obviously hold something else. can I / should I remove them and does that give me access to the assumed rubber gromit that is squeaking ?

Any help appreciated

I have recently had the same problem. I ended up using a mirror and a oil can with a long spout. With the use of the mirror I managed to get it in the right spot before giving it a few squirts from the can. Seems to have done the trick.

Hi,

I just took the MC cover off of the inside of the engine bay 6 small bolts, where the mastercylinder adjustment is. Sprayed a load of lubricant in there and also sprayed up the hole in the carpet where the pedal goes. That improved things. Make sure to clean the pedal afterwards.

Cheers

Cheers chaps - Mike, that seems the easiest option and I have a long spouted oil can and mirror so will try that first. If no joy, Neilly's way it may be....

Thanks guys

Just to clarify @Mr S1

This is the small MC cover plate in the engine bay, not the bolts holding the pedal box in place.......................

Cheers

I thought they all squeaked! I will have to look at mine now.
