M3 stiff gas pedal

Hello all,

Anyone with a newer model M3 having difficulties with a stiff gas pedal?

I have a '96 M3 with approx 2000 miles, and have noticed the gas pedal 
becoming stiffer and stiffer.  It is to the point now that when I pull 
out in 1st gear, more force must be applied to the pedal which causes it 
to depress further than needed (wanted) which results in surges in 
acceleration.  The problem is also noticable at interstate speeds in 4th 
and 5th.

Haven't contacted the dealer yet as I was hoping to have them address the 
problem during the first oil change.  Any ideas or suggestions for a 
quick fix, or am I looking at a more detailed problem.  Respond privately 
or on list.  Thanks!
