Default Clutch ???? ................

While cruising in 6th gear at interstate speed for 10 or more miles and then needing to downshift the clutch is very stiff. Then I give the clutch a few pumps and it is back to it normal resistance. Has anyone had an issue like this. I hope noone says that the clutch is going out!!! TIA

Default sounds like it could be the clutch slave or master cylinder...

I would try bleeding the clutch and see if that helps.

Default Yet another thing that the dealer will have to take care of under warranty....

if infact that is the problem. I just hate having to take it in to them. They always screw someting up!

Default If you are mechanically inclined, I would bleed the clutch yourself first...

I learned my lesson the hard way from dealer trips.

Default I am and I could, however I do not have my tools with my in VA.....

all my stuff is at my house in MI. The dealer might be my only option unless bleeding the clutch does not require a jack/stands and tools. Plus the car is still under warranty so I prefer that the dealer do what they are paid to do. Thanks.
