   where to start, lol
   
   firstly, have been driving around recently, and all of a sudden, no matter what speed or gear the car starts jolting forward, asif it choaking, then stops for a while, then starts again, also a couple of times its done this its stank of burning clutch, but the rev needle doesnt move, and havnt noticed any changes in biting point or anything, and cluthch was changed 12 months ago.
   
   seondly, there is a rather loud creaking and clunking noise that comes from behind the glove box everytime i press or release the breaks
   
   thirdly, the passenger side wheel squeels, and it gets more high pitched the faster i drive
   
   if anyone could shed light on any of the problems, would be a great help

   1. Did you have the clutch release bearing done when u had clutch changed if not that could be it or cable starting to seize inside its casing.
   
   2. Not to sure dno how brakes would make noise behind glovebox
   
   3. Tracking probly reason for sqweeling tyres your tyres scrubbing away

   Creaking behind the glove box could be the master cylinder.

Possibly a coilpack, or even a release bearing, not sure unless i can see it tbh. seondly, there is a rather loud creaking and clunking noise that comes from behind the glove box everytime i press or release the breaks Master cylinder, or if its a noise from a bit lower, driveshaft! thirdly, the passenger side wheel squeels, and it gets more high pitched the faster i drive Same as above, puts more of a case on the driveshaft. if anyone could shed light on any of the problems, would be a great help

   Possibles.

   Check for rust where the brake servo is bolts to the chassis.
