I was looking at my oil pressure gauge while letting my car warm up for the drive home from work and noticed that when I push down on the clutch pedal, the the oil pressure will spike say maybe 10-15 psi. It did this even until the car was warmed up. I never noticed this any other time before, although it's possible it could have been doing this before. The car didn't have any problems driving back. I even did the turn left with the clutch down test for crankwalk.

What do you guys think this could be? The last thing I need is some major repair on my car.
 
im new here and stumbled into this thread... can someone explain crankwalk to me and what it is and does? and the fix for it?
