Not only that, but are their replacement parts any better than the originals? That is, if Nissan replaces the parts, is there bound to be another failure at some point down the road?

Does this problem eventually affect all 370Z clutches or just an unlucky few? If it does eventually affect all, I'm now more inclined to go with a used auto, especially since my wife would be happier with an auto and I'm ambivalent.
it WILL happen. when? uhh not sure. some have gone off the lot others gone over 50k. I did a pre-emptive attack at 39k with an aftermarket csc. Nissan changed it to an external on the 350 later gens. then went back to original design with the 370 as an internal.. durpitiy durp durp.

btw as much as people will bash the auto's (I'm guilty) it's not bad at all. it's actually faster 0-60. the automatic is pretty damn good. I'm not sure if the base model has the padal shifters in Canada though.
