cluth master cylinder out?!?!?!?!?!
 

ok... was driving home last night and when shifting to 5th cluth pedal didnt come back up.... was able to drive home wasnt to far but does not feel too good for the car!! have about and inch or 2 to play with on the clutch pedal. hmm... warranty going to cover this? :shakes head:

Were you driving hard today?
Hot in Texas, it may have just been overheated.

no. was actually driving normal. thinking this is the problem because ive had to replace this part before on my civic awhile back and it did the same thing. have no mods done to the car yet do hoping warranty will cover this. :(

:facepalm:

It might be covered under warranty. Another member last week had the same problem but we had a aftermarket clutch so it wasnt covered. GL

yeah i saw that. thnx and will update yall if its covered or not.

Sorry to hear..with no mods yeah they need to cover this for you..

:iagree:

:eek: i hope so. the part for my honda was only like 70 bucks but doubt its that cheap for this z

Damn man, sorry to hear this.

Have you checked the clutch fluid level? Any noticeable leaks near the clutch master cylinder?

I think that there is a vendor working to get some after-market support for this issue.

These are the guys working on this issue. Anyone want to call them and see what their apporoche is?

just like my honda cant notice the leak. if fluid is added car will work fine for a day or 2 im sure. but dont wanna rig it... ill take it in first thing tomorrow morning to see what the dealer says. :( my babii is sick :mad:

More than likely the slave cylinder. My G had a recall on it for doing the same thing. Most of the time you could pump it back up and continue on. Repeated hard launches and or very frequent clutch action like bumper to bumper traffic can cause a reaction as well. Warranty should cover.

ok heres the update. dropped the car off this morning and nissan called me back saying it was the clutch master cylinder. :( getting a new one overnighted from tennessee or something like that he said! still hasent mentioned anything about a price so im hopeing its covered!

Hi, do not know if the warranty in the USA is the same as for us in the UK, but had the slave cylinder and the CSC plus the hydraulic pipe to the CSC replaced under warranty at the end of last month, my Z is 11 months old and had 4550miles on the clock.
