   Hello,a few weeks ago the clutch pedal started to make like a very soft squeak noise when it's unused,this noise slightly increase when the clutch pedal is used,all the gears go in just fine luckily,i was thinking it could be the clutch release bearing,is that possible? also,will it get worse if i don't replace the faulty bearing in the next 2-3 weeks? Many thanks.

   my car had this. Youre right it is the release bearing. I left mine for like 6 months before changing it. It got louder and louder eventually
   
   should be alright to use, until it starts getting worse

   To be honest it's a little embarrassing when,for example,you're parking and people walks near you because of that noise but if it runs fine i can wait a few weeks before replacing it,just one more question,how much would a garage charge to fit a clutch kit? thanks again.
