07- 09 Nissan versa cvt transmission swap part 1

[@HB-yq8gy]

AM make it look so easy with no fancy equipment or garage lift with only one person crazy. I seen two men struggle with the state of art auto equipment,tranmission lifts & air tools. This dude is one crafty counselor!

[@corkyshrigley]

Hey there. I have a 2008 nissan versa sl with cvt transmission that needs replacing. I've done flush and changed out filter and switch but still issues. Do you know if I can put in an automatic transmission to give it a longer life rather than replace with another cvt? Salamat!

[@HB-yq8gy]

@@corkyshrigley I’m not sure 🤔 if it’s even possible or cost effective.

[@isaacmorales7731]

U made it look easy. I will be attempting same job with same jack 🙃 this video really gave me confidence.

[@carlosaguilar1945]

Doing this job on a lift is a bit of a pain can't imagine on the floor great job!!!!

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

so true...

[@hellopeople343]

I know that video is kinda old. But I want to ask you. Where is the neutral safety switch located in the vehicle ?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

top of the tranny

[@hellopeople343]

I have a 09 versa with a transmission just like that one. I want to know the location of that neutral safety switch to replace it. Please help.

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

top of the tranny

[@jacobdykes6736]

When i removed the engine in a versa i noticed the bell housing bolts are differnet lengths do you know where the long ones go

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

watch the video couple of times i might show it there

[@johnworkman5121]

Thanks for not showing you losing the torque converter bolts...now I know as much as I did when I search up the video

[@jpegjake]

state the rest of the problem or how can you expect any help, im also interested to hear as I am prepping for this job...

[@luismelendez1761]

Thanks man,,but this info will help me to replace the engine.and it look it was very cold, God Bless you

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

Glad it helped

[@mattcisek5654]

can the engine be pulled with trans left in place(supported)?

[@pinkyxboi]

If replace, Does anyone know if you have to relearn or reprogram the 4speed transmission? I’m planning to replace the 4 speed mission myself. Not sure if relearning only applies to CVT. I am not going CVT - 2008 Versa

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

no relearning has been made in here my friend

[@chippersautocare9675]

I did replaced the cvt and it seem like a same issue, do I have to reprogram it or not?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

did you use ur old ROM the black square shape on the valve cover body

[@jpegjake]

wonder if you could hoise it out instead... Any significant differences for regular AT?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

yup definitely you can do it from the top but i find easier if i do it at the bottom

[@loveloreal]

After I had my transmission replaced, (same Nissan Versa), my car starts, but the RPM drops right after it starts up. It drops very low and then goes up again to around 1000, which is still pretty weak. Its lower than what it was before the transmission was replaced. What could this be?

[@pinoymechanic5306]

Do the relearn process if ur throtle body

[@abdelkhan8206]

I have an 07 Versa having issues with reverse going in and sometimes not. What can I do also can I swap it regular transmission?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

use the same cvt transmission

[@kjirstentrujillo6947]

How did you turn the flexplate to access the torque converter nuts?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

use a long flat screw driver

[@sagezayn254]

InstaBlaster

[@hebermendez2707]

how much fluid does the cvt transmission take?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

start with 6.5 then recheck ur transmission dipstick

[@Pat-Van-Canada]

Magandang umaga. Ilocana ang asawa ko. Nagkasal natin sa 2003 at maroon dalawang anak. Can I confirm that the exhaust pipe was not removed to allow removal of the transmission? It seems that these small front wheel drive cars do not need the exhaust removed to take the transmission out as a general statement, is that true? .

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

panoorin mo ung entire video bro hopefully nandun ung sagot sa tanung this is an old video im not sure kung kailangan tanggalin ung exhauast but most likely u need to

[@Pat-Van-Canada]

@@asianmechanicguy6483Okay, walang probleme. Maraming Salamat po!

[@christopherO243]

How was the shift linkage removed?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

it's easy to remove i gurrantee you u rather focus on the bolts of torque converter especially on installing

[@SuperLilbob1]

Is the Torque converter weighted? Will it only go back one way or multiple positions on the flywheel

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

you can rotate it it doesnt matter how you positon ur torque converter as long its bolt will go in to the hole on the flywheel

[@shalingonzalez1650]

I have an 08 versa... what other years are compatible for the cvt transmission? 07-09?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

from my experience only 07 08 and 09 are compatible other year model had different size and design of the tranny

[@soundfxasmr]

I wonder, is it possible to just lift the engine and transmission as a whole with a hoist? Or is there not enough room on the transmission side?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

i recommend you to do this procedure rather than taking the whole thing because its faster and its easier but its also possible to remove them together at the top i did try it before but it didnt work for me

[@soundfxasmr]

@@asianmechanicguy6483 Thank you for taking your time and advice. But taking both of them out is my only option because the engine is getting replaced. Somehow piston #1 and #3 are shattered and my best guess is the cylinder walls are all scratched up. Even if they weren't all that badly scratched, the repair cost would be higher than just getting an used engine.

[@tommyinajar]

How long did it take to swap it out and in again?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

i can do it in one day 8 or 9 hours

[@willynurse]

Shift linkage?

[@asianmechanicguy6483]

what about shift linkage

[@christopherO243]

How did you remove the shift linkage?

[@nilugajjar8205]
