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

Dwight Frye · 09-16-2015, 05:36 PM

My '09 has 55K miles on it now, I bought it new. I refreshed the clutch fluid at 35K miles, keep a close eye on the fluid level and have not experienced any problems. However, when it comes up for the 60K mile service I am considering replacing the CSC as a preemptive measure. Is that all that needs to be done, or should I have a shop install the Z1 CSC Elimination Kit instead ?

I just had my CSC replaced with the ZSpeed HD CSC. My shop did a fantastic job and really burned the midnight oil to get the job done, but let me tell you, it's not an easy install and the thing is very hard to bleed:

Tips/Tricks to bleed the CSC?

If I had to do it again, I would definitely go for the Elimination Kit.
