2009 Coupe Clutch Clunk

Hey guys,

New G owner here but with a question.

My clutch can clunk pretty loud when I let the pedal out, its almost like a clunk and somtimes a rattle (donno if this would be caused by my rear subframe bushing going out and IIRC this one happens when i depress the pedal in first).
Now I've read threads where people say this is normal but nobody has posted a video so I'm not sure if its the same noise and as a new owner I'm paranoid hah.

So here's a video of the clunk in my parking garage so we can hear it extra loud.

Another little comment, the throwout bearing seems to be a bit loud as well. It doesn't seem to be as loud as my old hard body when I had to replace it but I cant remember for sure haha.

Any idea how many miles are on the clutch?

Also, welcome! Is your handle your real name or a misspelling of The Dude Lebowski?

Unfortunately I do not. It feels like its in good shape though, grabs nice and doesn't slip.

EDIT: It only has 100k km (62137.119 miles) on it so if its been changed it would be quite new.

EDIT 2: Didn't notice this portion of the post :P

haha when I was younger and got xbox live my dad made the account for it. He loves that movie but every form of lebowski was taken untill we reached this one and I've since stuck with it ( and equally love the movie)

Throw out bearing will make it sound like a cement mixer. If you end up replacing.the bearing you do the clutch at same time since you're there and clutch won't be hard behind.

Yeah I don't think the throwout bearing is done yet, It isn't really loud unless I'm out of the parking garage.

Thats basically what I did on my nissan hardbody, that things throwout bearing was loud as ****.

My guess is the integrated throw out bearing. May as well upgrade to the HD CSC.
