Default ODD pedal vibrations

Just bought a manual xb a few months ago and lately

Ive been getting some odd gas pedal vibrations at every speed, especially around 80 mph (vibration makes my foot almost fall to sleep) then the vibration seems to go away and come back. I dont know if its the cpu adjusting something or a bad motor mount that might be going out of place.

the clutch pedal also feels rough, almost like I can feel the engine vibrations through the clutch pedal when realeasing it to go to a new gear.

Its odd I know and to add insult to injury my brake pedal feels like rubberbands stretching. I thought because of this it might be a master cylinder problem since the cluthc and brake are hydraulic, but that doenst expain the gas pedal.

before I bought this one I test drove other manual xbs and none seemd to have this prob.
ps. this by FAR is not my first manual.

Any supportive input would be great so when I take her to the dealer I can go with some possible info to avoid a brush off by the service dept.

I love my xb and when she runs great its the funnest thing ive driven in a while

I have almost the same exact problem except I use to get an annoying tick noise on my brake pedal. It still has it but only on startup, the first time I drive the car in the morning.

the dealer said they had a couple of the same cases already and have no idea what it is but they are looking into it

anyone else have this?

i get that click every morning, i get the clutch and brake pedal vibrations and i don't think there is anything wrong with the car unless it doesn't run or it doesn't start.

Anyone else have the rough clutch pedal feel when engaging gears and gas pedal vibration at around 80mph or is it just me?

Theres nothing to make the gas pedal itself vibrate, other than the firewall its
mounted to. I had a horrible vibration at 80 when I first got the thing, and it
was poorly balanced tires, I balanced them myself, its like butter now to
110. Good luck with yours!

P.S.
Rough clutch pedal feel? I also have an 06, and the clutch feels fine. It has a different feel than say
a Honda clutch, but works fine. I also had alot of issues with strange vibrations and noises when I
got mine, but you will mostly find its normal.
