Clutch clicking
Hey guys, just noticed that when i depress my clutch within the first inch or two it clicks. I crawled beneath my dash and pushed it in with my hand to get a better idea of where the sound was coming from. Seems to be coming from inside of the sleeve leading into the engine area where the rod enters when depressed. Basically in front of the rubber boot towards the engine bay.. I've driven manual vehicles all my life and never had this happen. The clicking occurs when I push the clutch in and when I let it out. Started when I got it back from the dealer after a simple diagnostic test. Any ideas?? I just bought my 17 camaro ss less than a week ago with 19k miles.

Surely someone has to know what causes this.

A few years back I had a Beretta with a clicking clutch pedal and it was a cheap part and plastic bushing linking the pedal arm to the master pushrod. I remember thinking what a lousy design. If it is a similar situation and goes uncorrected, it could damage the pushrod from wear.

Hopefully it's nothing serious. The sound is still there but less prominent today. I have an appointment at the dealership on Monday.

I dont know what causes it, but I just greased every joint down there with some lithium grease, hasn't come back in over 10k miles.
