Unhappy

I have just started to notice a clicking Noise from my clutch. I can feel it on the clutch pedal, kind of like a ratchet feel.

As my Warranty runs out on Monday, I'm in a bit of a desperate situation

The clicking seems to be coming from where the cable connects to the rod at the back of the block. Anyone any ideas?

Just get it into a dealer. If it's a warranty item, as long they identify it inside the warranty period you'll be OK.

There is no cable on a turbo/sti clutch, its hydraulic.

Talking

Just sent an email to Mainland Subaru in Widnes, who responded very quickly

Yes on past history i would think that the problem you have is the clutch cover plate ! The best thing to do is get the into us ASAP so we can at least record the problem before your warranty is finished on 18th
Taking it in tomorrow to have the problem logged

IT COULD BE JUST THE SELF ADJUST RATCHET JUST TRYING TO CLICK ONTO THE NEXT TOOTH BUT NOT QUITE CATCHING AND CLICKING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL TOOTH.BUT FOR PEACE OF MIND GET IT BOOKED IN ASAP.
