Default Clutch/Trans derps when shifting and releasing clutch into second.

Yea, I said it, it DERPS (only way I can think of to describe the sound...lol) when I shift and release clutch into 2nd gear intermittently. It doesnt do it all the time, maybe times when I shift into 2nd when my speed is a little lower than it should be. Or it could be how slow I release the clutch sometimes due to traffic/driving situations. It also happens every so often in 3rd but not in any other gear.

I've since changed the trans fluid and bleed the clutch. Im thinking maybe the master and slave cylinder, but if that was the case wouldnt it make that sound in all gears? Or could it be the clutch itself?

Any and all theories welcome!

Its becoming more and more frequent. Anyone have any ideas of few diff things j can do to isolate this issue?

I'll be honest with you man, I have no clue. "DERP" is the best way you can describe the sound? Does the car jerk or any vibration that isn't normal?

Yea I know dude.....I hate trying to describe sounds but it's like a deep gulp, or a rubber band kinda sound. It mainly happens when im releasing the clutch out into 2nd gear around a turn and it sometimes happens in 3rd. All other gears are fine and shifting is actually pretty smooth.

I dunno, Ill figure it out....and report back. Thx
