click sound from clutch pedal

Have you heard any sound when you press on the brake pedal(engine on)...nissan tech say this is normal(low grade clunking sound)

yeah, some clicking sound that seems to be coming from the pedal assembly itself. it's almost like the sound of a ratchet when you turn it. i inspected it and nothing seems out of the ordinary. when i have time, i'll probably try and take the pedal apart and inspect it in more detail and probably lube it, though the service manual says to remove the entire steering column in order to remove the brake pedal

My 350z had the same click sound in the clutch. If its like my old 350 then its the safety for disengaging cruise control that you hear.

The clicking sound is the sound of all the beautiful unicorns and ponnies under the hood. The louder it gets the happier they are, you are one lucky driver!

can you explain? my clicks will happen even if the car is not on.... so cruise control is not in the picture at that time...

are others able to recreate the sound with the car no on?

It was years ago on my 2003 350z. The clutch made the same sound up untill the day i sold it. I took it into a dealer one time and thats what they told me unless they were full of it. But i owned the car for 6 years and the click never went away nor did it get worse. Nissan engineering?

its not Nissan engineering, its the unicorns clucking around in the engine. Nissan put them there to make more ponnies under the hood.......just dont worry about it
