They called back yesterday, quoting me parts and labor of $2800 to replace the whole assembly (master cylinder, slave, lines, clutch cover). They also had contacted Nissan, who offered to pay up and brought the cost to me down to $820.

I took it, my mechanic figured it'd be 700-800, and I assume he wasn't going to replace the whole thing (plus re-towing etc).

Should hopefully have her back by tomorrow.
Cant tell these days buying a used car, never know what the original owner did or did not do. Good thing NNA stepped up and cut the price for you. A tip for when you get the car back is to flush the brake fluid and keep an eye (ear) out for the quack sound. g/l and I am sure the dealer will do a good job, it's pretty much straight forward replacement. Might as well swap out ALL the fluids, its about time. Transmission fluid, gear oil, coolant.

I bought it new, I've owned the car the whole time. I baby it too. About the hardest driving is a canyon run here or then, and fully warmed speed-ups onto the freeway. But no launches etc.

My bad, thought I read you got the car used. Freak of nature I guess...oh wait I am reallly missing your previous threads, thought you had the same part failed as mine and NOT the CSC....CSC...MSC...all get me confused in this acronym world.

Mine was the simplier fail and fix,yours full blown. Glad you got it back. Time for a blood transfusion on all body parts.
