I did contact Nissan consumer affairs, I could mostly understand the nice young lady at the other end, they made a case and have submitted it to someone who will call me within 24 hours. My clutch is working but it worked the last 3 times it was "fixed" until the pedal hit the floor and would not ome up again...all three times. I told them it must be the CSC and will they honor the warranty which expired 16 October considering it was in for this problem in May and September. I'll let you know what they say.

I have not raced this car or driven it hard. At what odometer count does the clutch have to be replaced? How much will that cost? Thanks everyone.

There is no set mileage, as everyone drives the car different and in different conditions, I got about 160,000 miles on my clutch, and it was the CSC that went, but while the tranny was out had them do the clutch, as it was almost done anyway. Cost, that will depend on your area, but expect about 6-8 hours, if it's just the CSC the part is about 150-250, I'm in Canada, so pricing is very different then yours. If you don't have a lot of miles, I can't remember what you said it was, the clutch could be fine...what I would do if they are covering the repair is have them put in a CSC that you supply, if they will, and get the one from Z1. The clutch isn't the expensive part, it's the labour and the flywheel. OE at least.

Default Thanks 90ST

I have 45K easy miles on it. I will decide what to do based on what Nissan Consumer Affairs tells me.
