Ive noticed the clutch arm creaking when the actuator moves the clutch arm is it a strip down job or is there a way to grease it or would it be the clutch pressure plate as seems to be changing gear not very smoothly.

I do remember a mention of a creak from the actuator and this can be cleared without a major strip down.

Try to access the rubber boot of the clutch actuator and pull it back to allow you to lubricate the inside with some white lithium grease in a aerosol (click here).
