Honda Jazz Clutch Problem?

I've got an 05 Honda Jazz 1.4i se, and I got it serviced a couple of months ago, but after about 2 weeks of getting it back I've noticed the clutch making a squeeking/creaking sound, as if it isn't lubed or something whenever it's pressed and depressed. On biting point this is noticed a lot more. Really weird problem, but I haven't noticed it becoming stiff or anything.

Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be? Before I give it to them, I'd rather have some idea of the problem.

It might just be a squeaky pedal or clutch cable. Do you have anyone technically minded who can dump half a can of WD40 into the end of the cable, or into the pedal box?

hi, CURE. Buy a can of spray silicon oil (not wd 40 ) get your head with a torch under the steering wheel . press the clutch pedal in with your hand and spray the rod where it goes through to the gearbox. spray again when the clutch pedal is released . push the clutch in and out a few times. BINGO. You may have to repeat the every 6 months or so
