I have noticed a squeeking noise, when the car turns on. I can hear swish swish squeeek as I turn the car on, but it seems to be coming perhaps from around the bottom transmission area, maybe "clutch" side ?? seems more inside than the pulleys and belt areas that you can see. I think one of the pulleys maybe squeeking a little, but there is other swish swish squeek as well.

The clutch engages just fine, but I am wondering how do you tell if the clutch is about to go and will I get any advanced warning....i.e....does it die a "slow death" or a "sudden death" ??

Otherwise the car runs great and even the clutch engages fine and smooth. The squeeking goes away after driving a few minutes, but is very noticeable when started after say a day or two. It only has 76K miles on it, so is not driven too much.

Thanks in advance for your response.
