so, im not sure exactly when this noise started propping up, but being a perfectionist, i want to be sure everything is 100% ok with my car
neways, i made a very short 11sec clip of me depressing the clutch then releasing it.
the clicking noise occurs about 2 inches into depressing.

I just got back from AutoZone and bought some lithium grease. I unscrewed the console underneath the steering column and sprayed all around the clutch area. Maybe I missed the spot, but no changes from that. Brake fluid is at max capacity.
Any advice?

Mine does that too intermittently, and I've greased it, and I couldn't figure out the problem. Annoying as hell, but I guess you gotta live with it.

Maybe it's the clutch return spring?
