Hi
Engine began sqweeling few weeks ago, initialy thought it was the clutch release bearing as it only happened when using clutch. However now it pretty much happens all the time after about 5 minutes of the engine running. I presume its a bearing of some sort around the clutch /flywheel area but my mechanical knowledge is limited atm. so could anyone identify my problem and guide me to the neccesary actions. any help greatly appreciated
cheers

Could still be the bearing. It'll be spinning all the time, just under pressure when you depress the clutch.
