I noticed that the friction point of the clutch is lower than usual. And I also noticed this weekend that if I am at a stop light waiting my turn I idle without being in gear and without the clutch being depressed.

As my turn gets closer, I depress the clutch and put it in 1st gear. I noticed this weekend that the idle drops and the car struggles to idle with the clutch to the floor.

are these 2 related?
