Clutch clicking noise upon release

Postby Mx5lee » Wed Feb 19, 2014 1:59 pm

So every so often (more often now than before) when i go to shift and release my clutch there is a clicking sound. My car is a 1993 Na6, i have read through the forums but didn"t find any solutions to the problem.
I have seen the blue pieces of the supposed "stopper" just around the floor of the pedals.
Any suggestions to fix?

If the plastic stopper is broken off it's likely that the pedal arm is now contacting metal at the end of it's travel, which may lead to the click.

Either find a replacement stopper (probably at a wrecker, it may be the same as a 323 etc)
Or maybe just buy some of those rubbery sticky pads that stop chair legs scratching wood floors. Just stick one of them there to pad it and stop the click.
