Is the squeely sound just when slipping the clutch or any time the engine is under load for a moment? Sometimes a failed harmonic balancer makes that sound.
But yeah, if clutch it may not be worn as such but the surface glazed/contaminated or the flywheel surface has hotspots. Either way, a new clutch assembly and machined flywheel will sort it. Dunno why it £1400 though. That's how much it would cost down here in aus, would expect it to be cheaper over there.

Seeing as you're down in Oz as well riddle me this. Best bang-for-buck, sleeper, two door hot hatch?
I was thinking about getting a BRZ/86 but they're so spendy now. Same deal with the Suzuki Swift Sport. GTIs on the other hand are so attractively priced but most look dodgy AF.
Also my finance went through today so I take delivery of an Isuzu D-Max X-Rider on Monday. So much for going green. 🙄 Can't lie tho', I'm very fucking excited. Yet so, so conflicted. 🌏🔥

I understand this bloody car has led a sheltered life and neither of the previous owners got stung for any repairs. They've all started happening and been repaired during my 18 months. I'll run it until the clutch goes then it's going off Beachy Head.
