Nah! Nissan manuals have something messed up with the design. It's a pretty common problem in the Altima/Maxima VQ/MT vehicles. My previous 2007 Altima 3.5SE 6MT did this as well. If you slip the clutch at a high rpm too aggressively, something in the master or slave cylinder gets all screwy and looses pressure. When I took my Altima to the dragstrip, I can't count how many times this happened.
The clutch just sinks to the floor and won't come back up and you end up slipping. Frustrating problem.
SEVERAL 350Z/Altima/Maxima owners have had this happen in routine driving. Dangerous if you ask me!
