Message	Thanks to all for the advice. I'm going to consider everything the dealer did on the car and said as bad info and wasted money. I'll find another Z repair shop to replace the one that closed, have the clutch system bled and take it from there. Thanks! :Sounds like your clutch is not fully disengaging. You can try to bleed your clutch lines to fix this problem. There are two ports that you will need to bleed. There is one on the slave cylinder and one on the passenger side shock tower by your power by your Hicas valve. You need to bleed them in the correct order, slave, then shock tower or you will not get the air out of the system. You can bleed them just like you would your brakes by pumping the clutch and then momentarily cracking the fitting. Try this before you spend any money on parts or "synthetic fluid". FYI. If you do have an internal problem such as the synchronizers going bad, fluid is not going to fix that
