EPLegacyGT Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 So the Leg's been making some wierd clicking sound with the clutch pedal. I would like to post a video of the sound to help out but i dont know how? Any help in either situation would be great. I checked underneath and the spring is fine. The hinge is greased I have no clue. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AcUinbYkQRY]YouTube - 05 LGT Clutch Pedal Clicking[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoplightAssassin Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 At what part in the travel of the clutch pedal does it occur? You sure it just isn't the clutch switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPLegacyGT Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 If I could post the video you could see exactly at what time. I would say its half way. Dont think its the switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoplightAssassin Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 When you push the clutch, can you feel any resistance when you hear the click? And what about the clutch feels weird? Is it unusually light and/or feel non-linear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPLegacyGT Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 Clutch feels normal. Engages like it normally would. Just the clicking sound that I can kinda feel through the pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoplightAssassin Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 If everything is normal, it's most likely the clutch switch for the starter interlock. Get under your dash and try to operate the clutch by hand, or have a friend do it with a bat when you're under there. Otherwise, it's from the pedal linkage or the master cylinder is sticking a bit. In either case, you should be fine. Just keep an eye on the fluid level, if you start to lose fluid, it'll be from the MC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPLegacyGT Posted March 14, 2011 Author Share Posted March 14, 2011 You got a pic of this starter interlock switch. Now that you say that my buddy couldnt start the car last week. He would push the clutch the hole way and it wouldnt start. As if youd turn the key without pressing the clutch. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EPLegacyGT Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 I need to know if this is the slave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoplightAssassin Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 It's not the slave. You wouldn't be able to feel any clicking and theres no reason for it to click. It could be the master cylinder. Have you got under there and looked for the sound while operating the clutch with your hand yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jproy12 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I also have this clicking, and everything is brand new, tranny, clutch, slave, just the mc... I thinl it comes from the depal assembly.. Since I have the click in the brake pedal as well! JP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evak Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 My clutch was doing the exact same thing a couple months ago. I was very worried and the noise seemed to get worse. Believe it or not, it went away on its own after about 2 weeks. I have noticed the "click" here and there, but I hear it once, then its gone. Like you, I did a bunch of research on here and cannot find much info, so for now I'm leaving it alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPLegacyGT Posted March 17, 2011 Author Share Posted March 17, 2011 Damn. Ill keep looking for a little while and keep you guys posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcw8584 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 I just noticed the other day that if i lift off the clutch really fast, i can feel and hear a click. When i lift off normally ( slower ), then no such noise or feel. This is on a 2005 i recently bought that had less than 10k on a new single mass FW and clutch. Thanks for the tips, i will stick my head down there and try to simulate, hope its only the switch as i was dreading how much the little click might end up costing ...

Izzy_ Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I have the same click on my 01 gt. Just started doing It. I noticed that if you keep your heel as high as possible while repeatedly pressing and releasing there is no click. I thougtht it was the rubber pedal pad but it isnt. Maybe a bad throwout bearing or pressure plate? I do have a throwout bearing that is begging me for a change too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltasierrahotel Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 A similar clicking just started on my 05 LGT today. There's a clicking just as the clutch reaches the floor. I wondered about the switch, but when I opened my door I could hear it much more clearly and when I popped the hood and had someone else push it, is sounds like it's coming from a spot about a foot below the intercooler. My car had a new clutch and flywheel about 10k miles ago. Car feels normal otherwise and so far everything is engaging normally. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingling1337 Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 I wonder if LGTs are susceptible to the same problem the 08+ WRXs have, which is the spot welds on the firewall breaking from stress. This caused clutch pedal issues for many people, enough that some forum members attempted a lawsuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzy_ Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 A little update guys: I changed the clutch with an Exedy OEM replacement and put the TSK TOB kit for my 3rd gen and the clicking is gone. The previous TOB failed me shortly after my previous post here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
