Peugeot 307 squeeling noise

Car: Peugeot 307
Variant: 307cc
Model Year: 2004
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
when using the cluth there is a loud squeeling noise, this can also occur when stationary. car judders when starting and on pulling away. recently had to call a mechanic out as wouldnt start, there was a air lock in fuel pipe which he released, but last week when daughter was driving the engine cut out completely, the pipe had not being reconnected properly so no fuel was getting through to the engine, have reconnected the pipe but the engine is covered in fuel, the problems have occurred since then, could be a coincidence or not , any ideas ??

sounds like clutch release bearing is worn,unless fuel has leaked into gearbox bellhousing case and contaminated clutch and release bearing then its just down to wear and tear,to find out what the cause is you need to remove gearbox and check the clutch kit and flywheel,if the clutch is juddering then chances are flywheel is knackered as well

without seeing the car and hearing the noise myself i can`t really say,would advise that you don`t drive it if you can help it,because if the bearing breaks up completely you will lose all drive,get it checked by a mechanic
