    Clutch Pedal Rattle/Vibration

    i'm starting to have the same problem on my 03, it has 56,000 miles so it might be time for a new clutch... i hope not though. i'm not sure what it is yet, but i'm going to try and tighten the clutch cable up a little bit and hopefully that will work. i'll let you know if i find an answer.

    iPod connection to stock stereo
