Well, if your extended warranty only covered for a factory replacement csc, you can count on it crapping again

You could always trade her in for a flatbed and start making bank off other Z owners.

My clutch sank to the floor Thursday night July 2nd...was almost to the friends house I was dropping off luckily. Only bad part is for whatever reason when I popped it into neutral and strolled up in front of her house the tranny was still in second but my shifter was locked in to neutral. 0.o

Still sitting at a shop waiting to be diagnosed.

47k and some change. It's an '09 though so beyond the warranty. Guy called at lunch and said he's pretty sure it's a bent/broken fork or dislodged pin but couldn't be positive until he dropped and popped the tranny.

ok so check it out

csc failed, took it to get replaced....... and then it failed at the dealership! I was like,

Me- "hey, did you guys fix anything? my clutch isn't right"
tech-"yes sir, brand new csc and we test drove it to make sure everything was good"
Me- "well if you don't mind, take a seat in my car again"
tech-"Shiit..."

had to leave it over night, the new one failed in less than 24 hours lol

Replacing a failed part with another of the same kind. Nissan is pure genius!

My warranty will actually cover to install a non nissan csc, just didn't have the money at the time. No worries it'll go out again, 3rd times a charm

Complain about mechanical issues then mention getting a Fiat?

Good luck, they have some of the lowest reliability ratings.

Agreed, But like I previously stated, low fluid can also cause it as was the case with mine at 5k miles. Since the fluid level is the easiest thing to check and correct first, I mentioned that as a possible/probable culprit.

So everyone keeps mentioning how unreliable fiats are!.. What's a good inexpensive car with decent reliability?
Fiats are like 15k, good mpg.. I ask for my gf since she's supposed to check out some fiats today lol.

this has to be an install issue. As bad as the CSC, it will last more than 10 miles if installed correctly.
