Fluid went from max to almost min in under two weeks, had them jack it up and they noticed brake fluid leaking from seal of transmission housing to engine block.

now I have two options, either try to have Nissan dealership inspect it and see if it can be covered under powertrain warranty (5yr/60k) or just have the shop do a Z1 CSC delete kit.

For one, I don't want the dealership to drop tranny only to find out it's not covered and have to back on and waste $600 (it's still driveable now). But also concerned on how long the new one will last. At the same time, I love the possibility of dealership covering everything the replace as least the CSC (my clutch should be fine unless it's covered in fluid).

So what do you guys think? I have a spare beater I can drive around in the meantime so downtime is not a concern.

Thanks for input!!!
Not for nothing but i still cannot get my ahead around how the csc is integrated into the throwout bearing, inside the transmission, and is not covered under the driveline warrenty ehich clearly states AND ALL INTERNAL COMPONENTS. It's utter nonsense and really dissapointing. Some dumbass mechanical engineer designed a plastic component for the transmission in a sports car (you don't have to be nostradamus to see the future here) and then when it fails to throw your hands up and say "NOT COVERED" - not a transmission part. Yet when you go look up the csc on thier own site you find it under "transmission parts". For the love of god, you don't have to be so obvious when you screw over your customers...
