Anyone experienced a noisy clutch pedal on their GQ when its depressed. Like a kind of clicking noise coming through the pedal arm itself. I've sprayed the whole area with lubricant and it didn't do anything. Its annoying as all hell. Help!

Not I, touch wood! Intrigued though.
A worn thrust bearing maybe ?
From time to time I do..... Its the pin that holds the push rod clicking in & out of the groove its warn in itself over use.Quote:
