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

BC Thinking back maybe it was either the hot Florida Temp. Or the dirty fluid getting flushed out did the trick in my case. There was never any fluid leak

Thinking back maybe it was either the hot Florida Temp. Or the dirty fluid getting flushed out did the trick in my case. There was never any fluid leak visible. The stock setup is close to all kind of hot stuff and the pumping action of the clutch makes all kind of internal crap that you can see in the fluid. I still periodically stick the tube of a windex sprayer down the clutch fluid fill and pump out the dirty fluid into a cup and put some new in. When it was acting up it acted the same as the clutch failure, dropped to the floorboard or went half way down. That's why I think some here might be helped with the service bulletin flush and refill cause they might be boiling over or have contaminated fluid vs an actual failure.

Just got my car back, a day earlier than expected. All seems well, and the out-the-door total didn't increase (*whew*).

I did, however, fail to anticipate that new clutch = new clutch point. I felt like a newbie stick driver all the way to the office just now.

MAN did I miss my Z!!
