The Last Straw! CSC - Removing the Transmission
I've been a huge fan and owner of 240z's, 280z's, 300z and 370z. They are wonderful automobiles. However, there's a steep price to be paid that transcends the all mighty legal tender.....being stranded. Was getting ready to get mid-evil on my 370z with upgrades and was stopped dead in my tracks. Yep, CSC failure and it wasn't pretty. Perhaps I should have got a Elimination kit though I was pretty heated with the whole situation especially with less than 17k miles on my 2017 370Z.
I'm done with Nissan! It's over! I've evicted my true love forever! Not even a slightest look when a 240z with LS swap blows by me. Done and no more Z-fever, ever! Don't care about those throaty notes or analog gauges anymore. Not interested in seeing Ducati's sweating it when I'm railed around tight mountain roads in second gear and my hood's stuck up their azz. The end, game over.... I've stopped the madness. Finished forever!!! dannnnnggg, that 240z LS swap's phat........if I sell some of my Sadowski's and dip into my 401......MOTHERPHUCR!!!!! |

SO you had a 4 yr car with only 17k miles (barely driven) that started giving you maintenance issues from not driving?
Sounds like you need to do some research, the research would have yielded that this is a common fault in these cars and that those who join a forum to just complain about this does NOTHING but ruin your online reputation. Hopefully you can learn from this before you post about high oil temps you might experience as well. |

Member since 2019. Has one post, and it's this one. If he's been reading the forum. He would know that the CSC can be a problem.

This and those that know about the steering lock fuse yet don't pull it then complain about getting stranded are my confirmation for being surrounded by stupid.

Idk. Your spark plugs should be able to tell you what type of oil is best.

You need a pop and bang tune to do that.

Speaking of that. I saw our favorite tuner on IG the other day complaining about doing 15 tunes in one day. At, let's say $600 a pop (pun intended), not a bad living.
