True. I think it's closure. Noise bouncing off the walls.

Precisely.

I will also add that the "clunk" seems to be relative to the speed at which you release the clutch pedal. If you dump the clutch, I expect it will clunk quite loudly. I just tested it this since my last post and when I release it fairly quick, it makes a noticeable clunk, while releasing it slowly does not clunk at all. I would it think it best to avoid making it clunk like this.
