A batch of 2003-04 cars were fitted with harder clutch linings, which were then dropped for the earlier type. VIN 293500 to VIN 332991 had them apparently. Mine's in the list and occassionally gives a dry 'squawk' on starting off. Yes, you can feel it through the pedal. It's nowt to fret over they reckon.
