Default Fortunately, that's something I haven't experienced...

...<font color="003366"> That said, my clutch felt especially "grabby" for the first 500~700 miles. Now it feels less touchy.

Or maybe I've adapted to the car and no longer notice it.</font>

Default My car did it a few times today and I heard a thump on one occasion.......

I think I am dropping the clutch before I let off the gas by a few tenths of a second. That seems to cause the noise and if the gas is dropped before the clutch then no noise.

Default yes, you don't really need to press the clutch fast, but at least give

very very very little gas that will solve the problem. This only happens when you completely off the gas before you press the clutch on a engine braking situation.
