Yikes! I had no idea this was an endemic issue with the G/Z 6MT.

Mine blew yesterday, just as I was pulling into a shopping mall parking lot. Could have been a whole lot worse. I actually consider myself pretty lucky. I'm assuming it was the CSC, and will find out for sure later today. Pedal got weak and short, then quickly went limp. No clutch fluid in the reservoir.

It's a 2011 with only 18.8K miles. Very scary situation.

[edit] Shop just called. CSC was blown. Heavy sigh.

 

Had to have mine replaced twice on my 350

 

2010 G37S 67K miles, no problems with clutch

 

2009 w/41k miles. no CSC issues, knock on wood.

 

Original CSC at 74K. Just replaced one on my 2000 Honda Accord with 190K. First time, believe I caused the problem myself when I bled the slave with a vacuum pump. I think I damaged/moved a seal. It begin to leak shortly after that.

 

same here 2010 G37S with 43k miles. no problems but last oil change I bled and replace my clutch fluid. it was BLACK!

 

It wouldnt be such a problem if they didnt design the transmissions with the CSC inside of them. Causing replacement to quadruple in cost..

 

2008 with 37k miles and no issues but then i kinda baby my car. Changed the clutch fluid last summer and will do so again in a month. It was not dirty a year ago.

 

08 G37S, original owner, 63K miles, no clutch problems.

 

2013 8k miles. First manual car. No problems yet and hopefully never.

 

ive had 2 '08s. with the first one the csc went at 41k. the second one is at 70k. never been done.

 

Still on the same CSC

 

08 at 120k. Original CSC. Went through 2 MC at 100k and at 115k.

 

just a question: what happens when the CSC or MC fails? clutch pedal sticks to the floor, or what? can the car be driven at least by rev-matching?

 

Clutch pedal will be on the floor
