Hi guys! Maybe someone help me with this problem. Has anyone encountered this clutch feel? It's kind of weird and i'm a little paranoid about the weak transmission and grinding issues on our Z's.

Background:
Happened to me twice. Got the car for about a month. Have driven the car for like only 10x max. Haven't really driven it hard. Both case happened when the car has not been used for about 3-4days. About 7k miles on the car.

Problem:
The regular clutch feel has a loose portion when you press on it at first right? About 10% of the pedal feel. But when I don't use the car for about 3-4days then this "loose feeling" would increase for about 30-40%. But I can still drive the car like normal except for that increased loose feeling, although it comes back to that regular feel right away after about 1 minute of driving (the loose feel slowly decreases). Other than that, everything feels normal and doesn't have any problem. Has anyone encountered this?

Thanks!
