All possible reasons are related to each other, as same as the components of the system is connected with each other such as the flywheel which is a round metal that is connected to the engine crankshaft thus when the engine runs, flywheel turns, then there is the pressure plate that is press the clutch disc along the flywheel which allows the transfer of engine power to the transmission. By pressing the clutch pedal the clutch is released, as the clutch is released any looseness on the three parts mentioned could cause wobbling of the parts that can then transfer to the clutch pedal which can be felt as a vibration.
