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

So add another one to the list...
2011 Nismo

I just encountered this issue yesterday. Clutch traveled halfway before engaging. Later on the highway, the problem got worse and the clutch had to be pressed to the floor to change gears. Occasionally, it would also get stuck and I had to pry it back with my foot. The problem seems to be intermittent for now but I took it straight to the dealer. They drove it and said they couldn't find anything wrong. They kept the car for a day and gave me a Versa for a loaner (ugh).
Dealer called today and mentioned that the car is fine and that it is most likely a heat soak issue. Thanks for the posts and comments in this thread cause I'm headed there tomorrow with proof in hand and a demand to inspect the car more thoroughly.
