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

Car wouldn't shift into 1st unless I turned the car off, put it into first, restarted the car. While driving it was very difficult to shift into any other gear and so I took back roads to make sure I didn't cause a wreck.

Stopped at a stop sign right next to work and sure enough it wouldn't shift into first from neutral until I turned the car off and put it into gear that way. Hopefully I can get home today. Going to call the nissan dealership I bought it at and see if my warranty covers it. I bought it used but have only put about 8K miles on it since I bought it 6 months ago.

Not many people have been successful getting it replaced under the powertrain warranty but it has been done. Hopefully your dealership will work with you.

FYI the powertrain warranty is 5 years / 60000 miles.

Yea, called the dealership this morning and the service advisor said the CSC should be covered under the extended warranty. He also said that the first step is to change out the fluid which I have to pay out of pocket for.

Unfortunately for me I can't get down to the dealership till saturday so my car is going to be sitting at home while I ride my bike to work everyday. Time to get my workout on!
