Yes, hence Nissan issuing a recall for 2007 350z clutch hydraulics.

Also, note 2008 has the fix...

Thanks

Just because the Hyraulics are different doesnt mean the clutch pack and flywheel is.

Im just throwing this out there. Apparently people didnt even know the slave cylinder was internal. So that shows me other things are likely in the air.

My point was has anyone even seen an 07 apart yet to even know what was different?

to the smart *** comments above. . I will ignore them and assume your ignorance.

I dropped my Z off at 7:30am this morning. My service advisor told me it will be ready this afternoon. They got me a rental because, I had no way to get home and I had called NCA before going to the dealer. They gave me an 08 Quest It sucks!!! But at least it's something

Dropped mine off at 7:30 AM as well but was told it won't be ready until tomorrow due to them being very busy. They gave me a Pathfinder to use until it is fixed.

Hmm... so was anyone able to get the clutch replaced as a result of damage caused by the faulty slave cylinder?
