Based on his sig Agent K could still be under warranty, but I'm definitely not (only 28k miles, but it's a 2010). It happened once last year, after a panic stop: the problem went away by the time I brought it to a dealership the next morning, and they found nothing wrong. I'd read about the CSC problems, but figured it was a result of the stop.

There was no panic stop yesterday, though: after 2.5 hours of not using the clutch (averaging 80mph on interstates), when I finally needed to downshift suddenly it went to the floor. At first I could pop it back up with my toes, but it was barely engaging and twice it wouldn't come back up/wouldn't let me shift. Had to pull to the side of the highway once. I drove it up to NJ with no problem on Saturday.

I'll get it to a dealership today -- I haven't started it yet so I don't know whether it'll be driven or towed there -- and ask them to do the service bulletin fix.

*sigh*
