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

ahhlun · 05-22-2015, 02:03 AM

Looks like to fix this it cost ~1500?

I don't have this problem yet, but my car is out of warranty (2010 with 55k miles). This did happen to my co-worker's 370z though. So I am thinking maybe I should get an aftermarket extended warranty in case this happens and the extended warranty will be worth my money? Any comments?

If you gotta pay out of pocket, don't even consider another OEM CSC. Get one of the aftermarket solutions so it doesn't happen to you again. And make sure the master cylinder is done at the same time.

Couldn't agree more. Go with the ZSpeed HD CSC or the Z1 elimination kit.

I wouldnt buy an extended warranty, we've seen far too many times Nissan wiggle out of fixing/covering this issue with cars UNDER warranty..

Me personally.. no thanks, i'll pass.

2015, 1700 miles: Clutch was sticky on the way to work, and by the time I was off, it completely stuck to the floor when pressed; couldn't get into gear. Towed to the dealer and turned out to be the CSC. Fixed under warranty, no questions asked. Had it back the next day.

That's ridiculous. I am waiting on mine to fail (I am almost 10k). It will definitely piss me off

I wonder if Nissan will agree to change the CSC with an aftermarket. (I'll pay for it). Also wonder how much that would cost.

Blows my mind that Nissan hasn't addressed this problem after all these years

.

Just shows what they think of their customers
