Clutch catching on something?

Clutch catching on something?
I didn't have much luck on other forums. Maybe someone here knows what is going on...
About where my clutch starts to catch there is a noticeable 'clunk' like something has slipped or was caught and then freed up. It is not very audible at all. But is definitely felt in the pedal and letting the clutch out is not smooth and has this catch feeling when I let it out in first or in neutral.
It is just a single clunk and happens right where the clutch starts to engage. I only felt it in first and when I was pushing and letting out the clutch in neutral. Did not seem to notice it shifting 2nd to 3rd and on. It is definitely felt in the engagement in the drivetrain also. After the bump is felt the clucth slips a little bit more like it bumped back a little bit.
Has anyone ever had this happen? Know what it could be?
I know I won't be able to reproduce it if I take it to the dealer [:@]

I had a similar thing happen to an old 1.6 A3 quite a few years ago. After a few weeks, the clutch failed and I had to replace it.
You should take it to a dealer or garage, they will at least be able to feel the clutch pedal and understand your problem.

Ah that is not very comforting for a car that is less than 3 weeks old... Problem is that it will stop doing it by the end of the day and probably come back a week later. I am 100% sure that the problem will never be present when I go to the dealer.
