I just felt it this morning for the first time, it doesn't happen all the time(not after starting the car). Well I drove the car 3 times today and all 3 times I felt the prickly sensation from the clutch(feels like a rusty and worn spring or something ) at different times after starting the car.

Note: About 2 or 3 days ago there were 2 occasions when there was a slight metallic grinding sound when trying to get the car in gear. Clutch was fully depressed.

 

Going to the car to give the clutch a few tries and see whether it only happens when the car is running.

 

I too get this once in a while. If you do it in a quiet garage with the car off, you can actually hear the spring. I'll be tearing it apart in the spring to see what the heck it is.

 

spent 5 minutes testing the clutch, seems like it only happens when the car is running.

edit: Took another ride around. Definately felt it. It does NOT feel good at all and bothers me alot to have that prickly sensation whenever i depress the clutch. It is only felt when you're depressing the clutch i.e if you just hold it there you won't feel it.

 

anyone else have any input?

 

prickly sensation like u're stretching an old rusted spring when u're depressing the clutch?

 

yup

 

bump

 

I got this too, a popping type sound sometimes when pushing on the clutch, but it seems to have gone away now after putting a few thousand miles on the car.

 

They said that it was normal... GREAT
I drive this car everyday and I know whats normal and whats not

 

How long does it actually take to take apart the clutch assembly and put it back together again? Why's the dealer so reluctant
