Default Clutch pedal bump

I notice when i am sitting in neutral and i push in the clutch and let it out, i can feel a little bump where it engages. Is this normal...

Here's the next one, if i am making a left turn with the clutch on the floor say to pull into a parking spot. when i go to move forward to backup or move again, it seems that there is an air pocket in the line. Let it up and push it down, its fine... Anyone have any idea what the hell this could be??? Car is an 01 gsr wi/ 43k on it

i guess the only way i can explain it is it feels like the engages fully... Cuz after the bump, i think the dead space on the clutch pedal begins...

As long as the clutch does not slip, make any obsurd noises or anything. You will be fine.

How about this - its just a guess...

Sometimes when you engage the clutch (let up the pedal) it grabs suddenly with a klunk. Instead of slipping & engaging smoothly when you feather the clutch.

If that's a good description, maybe something in the clutch hub is broken, & sometimes it wedges in the pressure plate/flywheel. Like maybe one of those springs broke or came out from its proper position.

I suppose it's possible for the clutch slave cylinder to stick, then suddenly move a bunch. That's way easier to check for, so check that first. Open the rubber boot over the clutch fork & watch its motion while someone works the clutch pedal.
