All,

My 2016 4x4 Kadjar has developed a squeak when pulling away. It happens all the time I pull away on just the clutch or with a minimal amount of acceleration. 
This doesn’t seem normal or right.

anyone else has this or know what it might be?

Is it definitely the clutch or could it possibly be brake related?

is it a squeak like stepping on a mouse or like a grinding  thump

its hard without seeing it but as its 4x4 dont forget you have double everything could be a dif taking up the strain for instance.

does the noise go when in 2 wheel drive is it better or worse ? is it better or worse going forward or backwards.?

before we go on can you tell us the millage ? if its relatively low i would go dry bush on the suspension rather than a clutch

It could be something extremely simple. A bushing or sleeve twisted in a strange way, dirt, wire jumped out of its path and many more. I bet on something simple like that ;) Shedder101 has a point. Try his proposals, to hear when it's appearing.

As Duracel said, it could be brake related. Try releasing the handbrake before letting the clutch out and tell us if it still makes the noise.

We had a Punto a few years ago that squeaked every time it pulled away and that was a shock absorber damaged when the exhaust broke and wrapped itself round the rear suspension. 

Squeaks from the clutch are usually the thrust bearing, but many can work happily for years after the noise starts. Getting a clutch done under warranty is probably nigh on impossible as it's a wear and tear item, unless a manufacturing fault is proven.

Think we need to know how much mileage is on it to try and draw better conclusions, whilst the car is 2 years old, thereabouts, mileage could be low and yes it could be high. I have a 2 year old car that does not even have 10000 miles on the clock yet.
