Crunchy clutch to a crunchy brake pedal? :(

About a month ago my dealership was kind enough to replace my entire clutch assembly under warranty due to the nasty crunchy TOB. Moving forward to now, my car has developed that same feeling and sound in the brake pedal (although not as bad as the clutch noise).

My '14 BRZ currently has 18.9k miles so I was wondering is it normal to hear the brake pedal make a light crunch noise? or maybe a hissing noise (brake booster)?

I admit the clutch issue made me go crazy whenever I hear an awkward noise in my car now so maybe it is not an issue at all, but I can definitely tell the brake pedal doesn't feel as easy as it once did. My cars pretty much stock except for exhaust.

Anyone with the same symptom develop a fix?

I don't have that problem, but, you may consider (in this order):

Checking the fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir , top off if necessary

See of the brake pedal (under the dash) is binding

Maybe bleed the brake system

Have your car's brakes inspected

Then again, maybe it’s just latent crunchy sounds in your brain …..
