Hi Guys,
My gf's 2005 1.6 petrol Mini One has started to make a high pitched grinding noise when the clutch pedal is pressed in. Goes into gear ok, and drives fine, just that horrid noise. Pedal also not releasing back fully every time. Mechanic going to look at it today, mentioned the release bearing as a possible cause. Just wondering if anyone has any other thoughts or likely causes and costs to repair. Would like to be a bit better informed when he comes back to me. Down in West Cork, in case anyone knows a good Mini mechanic around there...
Thanks,
Gerry.
