May be the floor mat, used to happen on my 1 series when it got trapped under the pedal.

yep i had the floor mat do exactly this.

It was too far forwards and the clutch pedal would catch on it and pull it up as you released it.

Thanks when i got home i phoned derrick oh cora,but he was busy so was arther c clarke. So i borrowed a bible and made a crucifix out of two lolly sticks and an elastic band.so i ventured forth towards the car shouting demons be gone and the lords prayer, opened the door put my hand in and pulled the mat back 1 inch. Straight away i noticed the difference and a smell of flowers filled the car problem solved.
