Clutch Clicks

Hey me again. I was wondering if you know why my clutch would start clicking when I push the pedal to the floor. If I push the clutch down too far, and to the floor, I hear a faint, yet annoying clicking sound coming from somewhere. If I release the clutch a little(not to the point where it catches by any means, remember, mine catches all the way out), the noise stops. I noticed this first after I got it vet tested, but I don't think they could have done anything to mess up the clutch. any idea?

check your u-joints. I had the same clicking and I too thought it was the clutch. Turns out it was the rear u-joint needle bearings. Fixed that and the click was obsolete. Remember, replace both u-joints.

It could be just a coincidental happening that this happened after your test, but it might be only some linkage slipping due to a worn out plastic bushing. Check out my post here and take a look to see if it's your problem. I know it created a click in my system:
