Clutch pedal bushing wear?
My car is developing an issue where the clutch pedal movement is no longer smooth after about 25 minutes of driving. There seems to be some added resistance. It's not always there on every pedal push, but it's there about 25% of the time after the car warms up. What could cause this? Clutch bushing is about to go? Or could this be a clutch master cylinder issue? The clutch is still operating perfectly, just the pedal feels a bit weird. Anyone experience something similar? If so, what was the cause? Thanks.

I actually just switched my clutch and brake pedal pushing to performance ones. The ones that came out did not look worn much at all with 85k miles. You can try changing them since the bushings are cheap ($20) but they're a bit of a pain to change if you're a tall guy like my self. Not much room in the foot well!
The performance ones really did makes the pedals feel better though!

I can't see bushings causing a different feel after x amount of minutes of driving, especially if it doesn't feel the same with each pedal push. I say it's more likely master or slave. When is the last time you flushed the fluid in the system? I'd at least start there. Sure it wouldn't hurt to swap out the bushings for better ones, but I doubt that will cure your issue. You could shoot some triflow on the bushing to see if that helps any.
