Hi there. I looked at an 05 exige today and when pressing the clutch it really squeaks. This is with the engine off. Is it normal when cold? It's the only concern I had with the car!

P.S - spelt SQUEAK wrong in the subject - someone shoot me

Pedal? If so yes, as are rattling brake pads, windows, engine cover etc etc Bumps and creaks from the dash and the odd bang from mechanical bits when you push it.

^ What he said. If it's the pedal, unless it's a squeak of escaping air you need some WD-40 and that's it. If it's the clutch itself, that's a different matter entirely.

you can hear it from the outside. It wasn't a cockpit thing. It makes me think it's not the pedal. Sounded like grease was needed some where - not necessary a huge fault but cause for concern!!!
