Clutch Shaking

I am finally getting annoyed. Everytime i come to a stop, or coast down to a stop sign, or red light, and press the clutch in and shift to neutral and coast, it clamps down very hard, and causes you to even hear it getting unreleased, and a slight shock coming thru the car.

The clutch is a mazda OE replacement as in the receipts when it was changed like 6 months before i got the car. Everything seems normal otherwise, but it is getting annoying. Does anyone have the same thing, and if you fixed it, can you please tell me how

Thank you

Kinda feels like a bang as you pop the thing out of gear? try to engage your clutch sooner than you are, before shifting out of gear. Your clutch fluid (really the brake fluid as well) may be old or low, such that the clutch is not fully disengageing (I HATE trying to spell that word!) when you put it to the floor. Of course, one pump of the brakes, and the clutch is fine again... until next time.
