| Description of the problem | I have a 2009 370z. It is daily driven (no clutch dumping, burn out, track, racing, etc.). The clutch is oem. At 16,158 miles i was leaving work. I was getting ready to pull out of the parking lot when the clutch pedal sunk to the floor. The more i press down, the more pressure was lost. The dealership diagnosed the problem as a failed concentric slave cylinder. This is probably the same part that is used in the '07+ 350z with similar issues. Thankfully this problem occurred in the parking lot. The pedal sinking to the floor was sudden and without warning. |
