Mine does it too!! I thought i was the only one who had to suffer with that, its really really annoying! The best thing to do is to just turn your music up so you can't hear it lol

Mine did squeek, soaking the pedal mechanism/spring and whatever else is there with WD40. The noise went, then came back...........now its gone again, think the WD took some time to do its stuff but i got there in the end!

You'll be fine lol Just spray at the top of the pedal/arm ,whatever ya wana call it, if ya strong enough, press the clutch pedal all the way down with your hand, this should expose the spring a bit more, really soak it as well, dont be tight peeps!
