Wait or were you talking to someone other than me..?

Haha, I brought it up for everyone to think about.

I've read a few complaints from Z owners since '07 about clutch burning smell and slipping after a few months of ownership. The dealer later concluded that the clutch failed and wouldn't warrant the repair. I think the CSC and/or master cylinder was to blame as well.

At least one owner here had both the CSC and clutch assembly replaced. When my CSC failed, my clutch disc was in good condition so it did not get replaced.

When I picked up my loaner today, one of the service techs asked which car was mine. When I told him, he laughed and said that their service center manager was on the phone with nissan for over 2 hrs yesterday.

Interested in finding out exactly what went wrong.
