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

Imperial · 01-29-2016, 04:38 AM

Just had my CSC fail on me at under 42,000 miles. Super glad I bought the extended warranty as every failure prone part on this car seems to be going out on me one by one right when the standard warranty would have expired. Still going to have the ZSpeed HD CSC installed for insurance down the road and use the opportunity to get the clutch upgraded at that same time.

@Imperial: If you didn't have the extended warranty, what would the costs have been to replace? My extended warranty expires in June of this year and I am considering extending it for another 4-5 years. I want to weigh the price of the warranty against the cost of the CSC if it fails. I only have 25K on my 2010 40th and I may want to do a preemptive strike before it POSSIBLY fails.

Of course the extended warranty will cover other items, but the CSC seems to be high on the list of failures...

Please view previous message, I'd also just recommend that you buy the csc elimination kit from Z1.

Yeah, if it ever needed to be replaced, it would not be the factory one...

Thanks for the quick response...
