Title: click from clutch
Post by: gtitdi on 02 September 2006, 17:24

Whenever i release the clutch pedal there is a click from the engine compartment, it can only be heard when the engine is stopped - is this normal or is it something to do with the bearings or something else? Thanks

ok I don't think there is anything to worry about at the moment, it would be an idea to get someone to press the pedal while you have a look in the engine bay to see if you can figure out where the noise is coming from :)

Could be the self adjustment bit on the clutch cable if fitted.
What engine?
