This happened twice so far i just bought a new 06 Base Z and i drove it for about 600miles already but while i was driving it one day i pressed the clutch to change gears and the clutch didnt come back up for some reason it didnt pop back up and took about 6-7 seconds to come back up. have anyone ever had this problem??

 

Congratulations on the new 350Z and welcome. In the future, a post such as this will get more attention in “repairs” instead of the general forum. And a title such as “No return clutch” will spark members interest.

Concerning the clutch: are you having problems now?

 

Oh sorry im new to the forums and yea this problem happened yesterday and it happened twice within the 600 miles

 

happened to my 05..i have no clue why. It happened to a few other 05's. Someone else had a topic on this a few days ago. I did a massive clutch burn cuz i didnt feel it come up and i thought i just had no traction..

 

when you're trying to burn out, don't shift into second gear until the car's velocity (not speed) is high enough to warrant shifting into second. obviously if the rpm's are too high for the target gear, then the clutch slips. yup burning smell.

the dealer will tell you that everything is ok. well it is, but you most likely made the life of your clutch a little bit shorter.

ok, i know i'm assuming a lot of things here... lol

but, i'll admit, it's what i did a long time ago.
