So I just turned on the car to pickup food, and noticed that my clutch was really rough. It also vibrated and it sounded like something was spinning when fully depressed. As I drove it went away. Gear engage is normal and these no other noises. Any ideas?

Thank you. From what I understand this was a more common issue with the earlier models which was improved with the 2017+. Im at barely 36K miles.
The clutch fluid is looking a little murky.

Don't fuck around. It's done. It may frag on the way to the shop.

If you're fixing it yourself, make a parts run with a different car.

I suggest you bleed the clutch system before you do major surgery - you may get lucky -

No. It was an issue right up to early 18s. Depended of if they had changed to the new bearing yet when yours was built.

Here’s what it usually sounds like. Didn’t do the same thing as yesterday.

I don’t feel any difference in pressure and gear engagement is fine.
