I Fix This Nissan Rogue And Give It Away.

This Nissan Rogue was donated to me, but it needed a new transmission which is a BIG JOB! I decided that it would be cool to fix it and give it to a person graduating high school that could use a hand getting started in life. I appealed to my AWESOME audience to help me pay for the parts, and you guys donated WAY MORE than I was expecting. Thank you!! So I bought the parts, fixed everything up, and found a deserving winner of this car. I'm humbled and honored to be able to do this, made possible by my patrons and so many people who made one time contributions to the cause. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!

The way this young lady feels....so many "wealthy" folks have no idea how it is to be stuck without a job or a car to get a job in the rural areas of the world. Its a tear jerker b/c its so damn hard to get out of these spots

Wonderful job! The cvt fails "early" and the engine has "only" 150,000 miles. That's a good life for many cars. It does suck that the car is designed such that replacing that one part is so complex to make it not worth the money. Great job saving this old car and giving it to a new owner!

( not a car mileage you have to connect the scanner to your vehicle and hit the transmission then worksuport tab then you can see CVT DETERIORATION COUNT.) But my more than 20 Years nissan experience i recommend every 80000 milage replace the CVT Fluid it's last Long. Most nissan CVT fail because of miss using. Please check CVT Fluid level After warmup and engine idle condition 🙏 😊. Thanks.

[@kristoffscuba5466]

Another great video. Be aware when torquing small bolts like that (or any bolts I suppose), that when you choke up on the torque wrench handle, you will get a false reading, you will end up over torquing the bolt. Most times you will get away with it, but I didn’t get away with recently on a glow plug swap when I was aiming for 11ft/lb’s and I snapped off a new glow plug in the head. I always thought that torque is torque, i/e equal at all points on a lever, and that’s true in the maths sense, but the design of the torque wrench, where the pivot point is not in the centre of the bolt, it means that unless you hold the handle of the torque wrench in the correct place at the end, you will be getting a reading lower than the actual amount of torque you are putting into the bolt. I’ve been torquing bolts for twenty years and only just found that out.

[@inkman996]

That is incorrect. The torque setting inside the mechanism does not care how the required force is applied, once it reaches the set torque it trips. All that changes when you grip up or down the handle is how much force you have to exert to move the lever a certain distance. The further out on the handle equals less force but also less travel. The closer in to the fuldrum point requires more force which equals further travel.

[@kristoffscuba5466]

@@inkman996 you're wrong. I don't blame you, I've been wrong for 20 years. Search for the video on youtube "Why GRIP Position on Torque Wrenches MATTERS!" by "the bike sauce". It explains it easier than I can in words.

[@DFPercush]

My guess, it has to do with the way you make a twisting motion with your fingers or wrist, rather than just pulling one way. A lot of times when you're spinning a wrench you'll pull on the tail and push on the head, or push in the opposite direction with your thumb. (edit) I'm wrong lol. Went and watched that "Why Grip Position on a Torque wrench matters" video you mentioned. For some reason all the replies have been deleted, but it makes a lot of sense. There's a ratio of distances between a) the pivot point of the handle to the bolt head, and b) the total length of the handle from pivot to grip position. The actual force experienced by the "clicker" is not the actual force experienced by the bolt, so there's a calibration that needs to happen between those two. Decreasing the grip length and increasing the force proportionally doesn't work because of that offset. It's like, just because 1 degree celsius is 34 F, that doesn't mean that 2 degress C is 68 F.
