Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Sticky: (Official) 370Z Clutch Pressure (CSC) Failures

DarylP · 01-16-2014, 09:59 PM

VIN: 553000
Purchase Date: June 2011
1st failure- Aug 2013- final "STF" (Stick To Floor) 10/16/13
Occurrence Mileage: 32,000
Clutch Type: OEM

Update: Last week (Jan 2014) at 34,350mi. pedal started to get mushy and not returning. Limped it to Baker Nissan (awesome service) where I explained what it was doing and that TSB was done in Aug. They simply said they will take a look and fix the problem and gave me a free rental car. They called me the same day to report the CSC is leaking and it will be replaced. Once they replaced CSC and test drove car the Master was not pressuring the system so it was replaced as well. Glad I did not have to get towed and it was a painless experience with dealer to replace under warranty which expires in 1,500mi and I opted out of extended warranty. I will replace next failure with Zspeed and tell everyone Nissan clutch systems are weak until Nissan addresses. Thank You Baker Nissan for not making me have a horror story like others on here.
