I told him that this is a known issue on the 370Zs. And that my clutch bottomed out and would not come back up on it's own; I had to flick it up with my toe. Also, it's hard to engage the gears when the clutch pedal does return on it's own. They're going to look at it and let me know what they find. Of course, I'll let you guys know what they find.

So, the service guy calls me this morning. He tells me that the Nissan tech couldn't find anything wrong with the clutch...WTF!!! Un-FN-leavable!!!! I know what my clutch was doing...I just didn't dream it up.

Anyway, I told him that maybe the clutch felt right because it was cold so have the tech check it again. Even though after a cold start, I can tell the clutch isn't right. Sometimes I believe a lot of these techs don't know how to drive a stick. This was the case with a salesman when I test drove a Z before I bought this one; he could barely get it off the lot. I'll probably have to take the tech on a test drive myself but right now I'm too busy.

Good luck bro, I hope you get taken care of.
