My clutch makes a popping noise. Right at the top of the pedal right before I remove my foot off the pedal. Any ideas? C5 z06 Thanks for any help!

Get down by the pedal and take a look at the over center/return spring. It may be broke.

And if it's not broken hit it with some WD40 then see if the popping is still there...
