| Description of the problem | I went to start my car and the clutch pedal was low. Once i went around the corner from my house, the pedal almost fell to the bottom. Since i could not put it in the next gear, i put it in neutral and pushed it back into my garage. My mechanic said it was the clutch slave cylinder. He also said there was a lot of break fluid in the transmission coming from the csc. I went on 370z pages and this complaint is all over the place. There are numerous forums to this issue. Luckily i was not driving on the freeway or i could have caused a major accident. If this issue has been happening for a long time to hundreds if not thousands of cars for this make and model, why has this not been fixed? Bill was around $1000. 00. Haven't had any issues since replacing the csc but only have put about 4 thousand miles on it since. |
