pedal box possibly on the way out on 6n2.....
ok guys bit of a tricky one here, the mrs has just got hold of a 1.4 6n2 polo, which has a horrendous noise when the clutch is depressed/released! i had a look up n the footwell, and played around with the clutch pedal while having a nosey about, and all i could see or figure to be the problem, is a very small (inch or so) crack, or what looks to be a crack? could this be a pedal box on the way out?

just moved this to the correct section.
yes it does indeed sound like your Pedal Box is in trouble. I wouldn't drive it at all until it's fixed!
When the Gti had the pedal box recall, what VW did was reinforce that weak point with a better weld. I suggest you do the same (if it's not beyond repair)! Either remove it and get someone to weld it for you (cheaper option) or take it to a garage and get them to sort it out (not so cheap)
