hahaha, it's a piece of crap. if you plan on keeping it, get the z1 cscek and have the dealer install it in place of the oem csc.

yeah if it goes out again ill just do that lol.
the part was installed and it broke on their first test drive, so by the time I got the car it was pretty much drained out which is why my clutch pedal felt so shitty. But they replaced it for the second time and it seems good so far

are you sure they have actually replaced it the first time, not just bled it? there is alot of shady dealer mechanics....

do you mind PM me the dealership you are dealing with so that I would avoid them simply because they are either incompetent or shady in your case.

Just be glad yours didn't end up like my CSC replacement. They replaced everything including the pressure plate, CSC etc. Well I took the car and 5th and 6th were kind of tight going into gear. Took it back they replaced the transmission under warranty (every gear shifted fine until they replaced the CSC) stating the syncro's were going out.

Now I have a new transmission that EVERY gear is tight to get into. They keep telling me that it needs a break in period to loosen up of 500+ miles and that its so tight because of the B&M short throw I have.

So now I have to find the original shifter replace it back to stock and take it back to them AGAIN! So frustrating sometimes.

Either the CSC is not extending enough to disengage the pressure plate from the disk, or there is a problem with the pressure plate. Good luck with everything. And the break in excuse is bs. A clutch should be broken in for the first 500 miles, but everything should shift with ease.

Yeah not surprised on their BS excuses haha. Though everything feels like it is disengaging correctly. Its just feels tight to push into each gear. In gear no movement from car until clutch pedal is at the correct point and that all feels fine. Still seem like pressure plate problem (sorry don't know much on how that works)? Was thinking of switching out to Redline and seeing if helped at all...?
