Wow, that's intense! That's the first time I think I've heard of something like that happening. It must've been a nut/bolt that came loose up where it connects or something... wow

I hope it's not an actual clutch related thing...

Edit: I stand corrected... this was posted right before your post...

I've now heard it for the first and second time ever in one night

My clutch went completly loose 2 days ago

Been talking to the dealer.
Options 1 there is a clip on the rod that could have come off or broke.
2 Master Cyclinder is bad
3 slave cyclinder is bad
Will know tomorrow since I am digging into it and fixing it one way or the other.
I have a stage 3 clutch but don't think that is the problem.
