Default Clutch Question

Sometimes when I let the clutch out and lift my foot just above the pedal, it will pop up a little further and hit the bottom of my foot. Has any one esle had this happen? Should I be worried? There is no other noticeable problems. 5000 miles on the clock.

as long as the clutch isnt slipping your ok. you could get to the pivit point with some wheel bearing grease and lube it up a bit, that might help.

Thanks, I know it's a bit anul of me, but I notice little things like that. I think when I get my first oil change in 1-2 more weeks, I'm gonna bite the bullet and take it to the dealer and ask them to check the clutch out. I'll bet I get the old "it's normal" routine. I don't guess anyone else is having this happen, since no one else replied. It must not be normal???

I personaly dont have it, but the engagement of the clutch should be smooth and 'pop' free. putting some grease on it will probably help.
