Default clicking noise

hey guys, i've heard this clicking noise come from my clutch pedal all day, it doesnt sound serious, at first i thought it was a loose pedal or somehting, well it turns out it's not.. could this be a sign of something serious (a loose cable or something?) or is it just normal for things to rub after a while and make that noise in a teg?

the clicking sounds like that of a muffled ibm clicky keyboard and happens through differnt clutch pedal positions

Does it happen in neutral? It sounds like a throwout bearing. Do you notice any chatter while engaging the clutch?

Mine makes that same noise occasionally. It is in the pedal assembly, so I doubt it has any affect on the clutch itself.

If it doesn't hinder performance (mine doesn't), just ignore it until it becomes a noticable problem.

You could always check the pedal assembly for any problems.
