I could replace the master cylinder but the noise is not coming from the battery compartment where the cylinder is located.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi All,
Got this random creaking noise that happens when I depress the clutch pedal.
Sounds like its coming from under the car not the actual pedal in the footwell.
See video here ...

Doesn't happen all the time but most often it will initially be quiet and then start after about 15 minutes of driving.
I'm thinking that the slave is on the way out or the connection to the fork is bad?
Any thoughts welcome
Other possibly related issues.... First gear and second gear are not always easy to engage.
Hi Rad
Clutch helper spring?
check out the thread here as it has a good picture of what & where it is & views on removal.

Just read through that post and looked on Design 911 at parts.
Annoyingly my computer does not seem to want to show me the images any larger than a thumbnail.
However, from Design911 I found part 99642308119 on this diagram
https://www.design911.co.uk/pages/diagramsBrowser.aspx?categoryID=7&diagramID=2664
That however suggests that the spring is in the footwell not outside the car. (my car is not with me at the moment so I can't check)
Hi radial ,
Just had an identical problem with my 996 fixed. The creaking noise was absent until the car had covered about 20 miles or so from cold and it gradually worsened over a period of months. I tried spraying lithium grease on the pivot point but it didn't make much difference so took the car to my indy.They picked up on the issue straight away ,the clutch master cylinder had developed a small leak.They replaced it and it's night and day different - silent and smooth again.
Regards , Paul.
Just been looking again at parts. I could replace the master cylinder but the noise is not coming from the battery compartment where the cylinder is located. It's clearly coming from under the car. I'm thinking perhaps I have the same issue but in the slave rather than master.
I don't see any obvious leaks on either.
