Hey people, was hoping you could help with what hopefully is a small problem....
I've been noticing a 'tick' sound as I release the clutch on my XR, or if the clutch and brake are both depressed it 'tick's as I release the brake. The noise is just one 'tick', and sounds like a flexing piece of plastic. When I've looked under the dash and pushed the clutch with my hand I notice that a piece of the pedal box flexes toward the left of the car, and another piece that is bolted to a body-coloured bolt and nut flexes down towards the bottom of the car. It seems that the sound is coming from above this bolt. My question is: do you think that perhaps my pedal box is on it's way to fracturing, or is it that perhaps whatever it is bolted to is tearing/moving away from the body of the car? The area of the firewall that the clutch cable passes through is not torn or fractured in any way, and doesn't flex at all when the clutch is depressed. Any ideas? If anyone needs any pics I can post them tomorrow. Thanks in advance! |
