Clutch already went out on my 15 Nismo

Jepawa

my 15' makes a vibrating rattling noise when in neutral and letting off of the clutch. if I push the clutch in then immediately the noise is gone. I hope I don't have the same problem as you, admitting I am an aggressive driver I guess I have it coming if it does go out.

That's just the throwout bearing, and as long as it's not really loud, it's totally normal on this car.

I'll just make my exhaust louder and not think twice about it.

Didn't disappear just busy as he'll right now Sorry guys. Haven't been getting notifications for some reason either so didn't realise all the responses. No it wasn't the csc they did have to replace that along with flywheel and a complete new clutch assembly. Apperently the clutch broke into 3 pieces is what they said. No reason given to me I asked what could have caused it they have no idea. Just a defective clutch is all I got. My local dealership still has her. Apperently they didn't put the shields back on right around the tranny. They were just hanging according to my local is what I was told. They did take her back apart and made sure she was 100% lined back up. I also get a burning smell they said they dont don't have an answer on that just that everything looks good and is right lol I'm starting to hate these cars

I would be willing to bet it was improper installation that caused it to break apart like that. I wouldn't be too surprised to have some burning smell with a brand new clutch it just shouldn't be a lot and shouldn't last long.
From another site "New Clutch Smell: The OEM clutches do really smell for about the first 3-400 miles. ... Clutch material is similar to brake pad material..."

Sounds good.

Update - I was told they had a bad batch of clutches late 14 and 15s that the pucks were bad. Which is why mine blew out.

Also was told they've upgraded the clutch a couple a months ago and that's what they've installed this is from my dealership after dissembling and re assembling ensuring the work was done properly since I was getting a rattle.

Rattles = fuse box and wires were loose, shift rattle (we all know it's the ring) , plates around the transmission, exhaust and cats were loose, and last but not least they adjusted my intakes causing the bracket to hit against the car (my local dealership actually kept my car for a week and went over it completely). Very satisfied.

The damage to the front bumper I've heard nothing back since Friday. No one wants to take responsibility of course. I replied back to their call and no response this is the company that shipped the car back to me not Nissan.

Sounds like they took care of most of it. Glad to hear it. I'm getting a rattle from the shifter above 4k RPM. Was thinking about making a appt at my local dealer.

It's in the shifter it's the ring for reverse that comes loose or drops down if you have techs that know what they are doing they will already know. Mine did I already knew what it was from guys on here but to have a tech explain it to me was music to my ears. A Nissan tech that can actually diagnose and fix 370s I was in shock...
