When you use the clutch are most folks pressing all the way to the floor?

I have began to just press until I feel the clutch disengage, and then I shift.

Maybe that will increase longevity?:icon14:

Forgive my ignorance of the law, but I noticed the other day, on the news, people filing a class action law suit involving an automobile defect. Could this apply here?

It could. Anyone a lawyer or have a family or lawyer friend?

MagmaRed370z 07-30-2015 07:32 PM

I think that the is a ratio or a percentage for this class action to work. I am not a lawyer but it makes sense.

Im pressing the clutch down a good 80% to the floor. I feel a lot better about driving, having my CSC replaced though.

I think this defect would have to have caused death or serious bodily harm due to this defect in order for that to happen, it would have to be a BIG problem, not one instance here and another instance there.

Not saying this issue isn't big, because it is, but those issues that you heard about on the news were huge.. The toyota accelerator problem, the GM ignition problem, these were BIG issues.

MagmaRed370z 07-30-2015 08:21 PM

imagine stopping at a railroad crossing and at the middle of the crossing your clutch pedal doesn't work.

or making a right at a busy intersection and then your car doesn't go.

Or getting thru a bad part of town and then you are stranded in there and cant do anything...

Ok guys I'm hoping someone can answer this quick question ASAP I'm taking my car in to get the sinking clutch fixed and I don't want to get played hah.

Does anyone know how long switching out the CSC takes, difficulty and usually how much that job costs? Just labor please let me know thank you!!

Labor just to drop the transmission is typically 6-8 hours by the book. Figure $80-120/hr depending on your area's shop rates.

After that the actual replacement of parts is easy, but they'll probably find something to tack on an extra hour or two. Don't forget to include the cost of parts.
