I know my clutch isn't in the best of condition but it isn't slipping yet. However, there is a funny clicking that I can feel through it when I hold it on the clutch. Its like two little clicks through my left foot every second. I presume it would probably be more if I increased the revs. Anyone know what this is?

Cheers

Could be the Release bearing, bit hard to diagnose without hearing/testing mate...
Not much help but that is where i would start looking, one thing though.. it may be the bearing on its way out, how old is your clutch??

One other thing, is the noise consistant?? or is it say.. two clicks then quiet.. two clicks then quiet etc etc??
I know you said that it is two clicks a second which if consistant ie. click click click click click.. and so on.. then it would suggest something smaller turning and clicking due to the constant clicking... ie. release bearing.
However, if it is intermittent then it would suggest something larger ie. flywheel or clutch assembly..

Not sure if i have made sense??

Its only sometime there and only seems to be when I'm holding the car on the biting point, which I seldom do for long anyway. You can only just hear it sometime but more so I feel it through the pedal. The clutch is 3 years and 35k and is showing signs of being on its way out.
