Creaky Clutch was created by Grego

I Have a very creaky clutch, the creak seems to come from around the pedal ,
I've sprayed oil around the pivot but it has made no difference, could it be the cable?, the clutch is not stiff at all

Any ideas?, the thing is driving me mad.

Had a couple of hours to spare so disconnected the cable at the clutch end (can't even see how it connects to the pedal) , put a piece of paper in the footwell and dripped oil thru the cable until it dripped on the paper...well lubed.

Slightly quieter but definately f*****d.

I will replace it with a new one (thanks anywayJames )when I get the time and figure out how it connects at the pedal end

A new one is the only way to go. Just ordered one from my Distributor for LittleJimny which has the same problem. Heavy creaking clutch but no clutch slip or judder.

The cables are nylon lined and wear through the nylon sheath on the curve in the cable.
