Sticky: (Official) 370Z Clutch Pressure (CSC) Failures

darkphantom · 05-18-2015, 09:30 AM

Can we sign a petition or get something started for Nissan to address this issue? Not sure if there is one that exists.

^ mind sharing which dealership you took it to?

Im a couple weeks away from buying a new flywheel and southbend stage 2 clutch from zspeed, I figured I would being that I'll be replacing my CSC & CMC on my 2010, why not do it all at the same time.

Does anybody know if the 2014 - 2015 models have any kind of new or improved CSC?

Doesn't sound like it.

This morning noticed sticking all the way to work. Almost seems like a detent or something since it pops up if I nudge it with my foot. Only about 1900 miles. Never launched or anything like that and only just recently started driving a bit more aggressive since break in recently ended.

Yeah my 2010 started doing this occasionally also (usually when running hard on a warm day). It has only 9000 miles on it. I guess I'll be going with the Z speed CSC. might as well get a lighter flywheel and new clutch also.

Or how bout this one: Z1 Clutch Concentric Slave Cylinder (CSC) Elimination Kit (Z1 motorsports). Seems like it might be a better solution. Anyone try this slave cylinder setup?

It is too bad Nissan has to put some junk parts on their cars - especially on a clutch!

Me, too: just tonight, while driving from NJ to VA. Clutch started acting up in DE.

MagmaRed370z · 05-21-2015, 12:28 PM

its seems almost unbelievable that this is a known issue and Nissan hasn't bother to improve it or fix it for the newer models.

Uxi · 05-21-2015, 12:40 PM

Notice I have no fluid in the resovoir though was pumping the clutch with it off. Will definitely take it in to see if there's leaks or something

eastwest2300 · 05-21-2015, 12:49 PM

ah bro, that sounds like a CSC failure, the good thing is, you're still under warranty.

MagmaRed370z · 05-21-2015, 01:07 PM

On a 15!!!! damn bro, I don't know why Nissan doesn't replace that Sh*t
