What is wrong with my clutch pedal?

[Squozen]

The pedal travel doesn't feel smooth. I'm fairly sure it's not grabbing on the mat but I'll remove the mat and check.

If I feel the same roughness in the travel with the engine off, that should eliminate the clutch disc and associated bits as the source of the problem, yes? No?

I thought the clutch was like brakes...engine on or off it still works the same.

I'm with Whip350, I think it is the same either way (or at least feels the same to me).
