| Description of the problem | Came to a stop at a busy intersection to make a legal right turn on red when the clutch pedal refused to come up more than in inch, causing the car to stall the in middle of the intersection repeatedly until i was able to stick it in to a gear and get it to a parking lot of a nearby hotel where the clutch pedal remained limp on the floor. Mechanic confirmed earlier this week that the clutch slave cylinder had given out. Upon further research i found multiple people with similar incidences in the same kind of car and also affecting 6 speed manual g37's and later 350z's. When my car continued to stall in the intersection i could've been t-boned and i believe to be one of the lucky ones. It could've happened on the highway. Updated 07-16-15 *bf updated 9/21/2015*js |
