   Everytime i lift off mainly in 1st, 2nd and 3rd, i get this squeaking noise. has anybody else had this problem before? im not sure if its coincidence but also seems if it happens more once shes up to temperature. any suggestions?
   thanks

   I had the same problem, sounds like you have not got enough copper grease on your brake pads.
   
   Just take the brake pads out and put copper grease on the back.

   What about where the manifold joins the centre pipe? Try putting your handbrake on get someone to lay near the car and lift the car to the biting point to see if they can work out where it is coming from?
