Is the 2018 Nissan Titan Transmission Fluttering Fixed?

[@danmckenzie9153]

Found this video after I had taken my truck to the Nissan dealer with 98,000 miles on it and they said I needed a new transmission for $8200 worth. Then I took my truck to a trusted friend and he said the same thing that the transmission fluid is burnt. so I decided what the heck let’s put an AGM battery in it even though my battery tested good and was only a year old. I just test drove it for 30 miles and no issues. I’m shocked that the dealer didn’t have a clue on this or anyone else thanks 1 million for posting this saved me piles of money.

[@danmckenzie9153]

Oh, I have a 2018 Nissan Titan pro 4X with the gas engine

[@danmckenzie9153]

Also, I live in Georgia and it got down in the teens on the weather and was not wanting to start without multiple pushes on the start button. In addition, I’ve made several 10 hour trips, pulling a boat and a couple of times it was bogging down and I had to pull over turn it off. Wait a few minutes and restart for it to fix that, I truly believe it was all voltage issues to the computer and sensors. Will update as time goes by.

[@4KMotoring]

Disconnect that gray plug while you're at it, The Smart Alternator feature is ruining these trucks

[@danmckenzie9153]

Just an update. I pulled the gray plug and it is running even smoother at low RPM. I really wasn’t having any issues above 3000 RPMs or on the highway. I did have issues when pulling trailers along distance I believe that the trailer was drawing voltage as well and the alternator dropping down was causing issues. Thanks for posting your video super helpful save me the aggravation of replacing a transmission and having the issue still.

2017 Titan S Crew. 72k miles. Threw a P0720 code (Output shaft speed sensor) will NOT go beyond 3rd gear! reset it with my iphone/OBD. Was fine for about 20miles then happened again this morning. Mine has ALWAYS done the slow start shit/fluttering shifting, and in my honest opinion is a complete and utter POS! I've had one other Nissan, an 06 Trashfinder and that should have been my lesson because it was nothing but trouble. I'm trying to reset my ECU (disconnecting battery as I type) which I know wont fix anything but I'm at my wits end here. I can TRY a new battery I guess, but I'm honestly ready to trade it in and will NEVER EVER buy another Nissan as long as I live. Thanks for posting and I'll keep you posted.

[@4KMotoring]

Let me know what you find out, sounds like a sensor failure for sure. I was never able to get the truck to store any sort of codes when mine was having the fluttering issue. Unfortunately just about every new vehicle gets lower and lower in quality as the technology becomes more advanced and complicated. If you want something reliable, don't buy anything made after 2004

[@greg20152015]

@@4KMotoring Do you recall what your battery was measuring at stand still? Mine is 12.5V with no load. When running it's around 14V. I know measuring a battery with no load doesn't prove much, but I don't have a load tester at the moment. I did drive it around the block just now and it shifted fine after ECU reset, but for how long?

Update on my 2018 Titan S , I bought it with 54k miles a year and a half ago (6/22). Started shifting bad 2 months later so changed the battery . Shifted better but not great so I lived with it since I can't afford running back to the dealership and leaving it for no telling how long . A month ago(10/23) it started again , slow starts and slipping trans ,so I bought a new battery but it didn't work this time . Take it to dealership and they say , codes read "transmission replacement" . I freaked out but having bought an extended warranty at least I won't have to pay 9100 bucks for a new one . Well an inspector from the company that has the service agreement comes and denys the repairs claiming leaking fluid lines caused improper fluid levels while driving ...even though there were no warnings indicators showing on dash and no signs of leaking fluid in my driveway where the truck sits . I'm scewed ... That truck is my lively hood .

[@4KMotoring]

That's crazy! Can you appeal the decision? I'm assuming you've tried adding fluid to the transmission to see if things improve?

Great video and great detective work! I went to an AGM (more expensive than standard) three years ago and mine has not had any issues since. A battery is not cheap but having an angry wife because of issues that could be remedied with another $150-$200 more for the heart of your vehicle's electrical system is a "no-brainer"!

Remove they gray connector on negative terminal. The smart alternator undercharges the battery and causes issues. Please look up disconnecting smart alternator and you have a brand new truck

[@MatthewHuff1]

I had the same thing jumped through a bunch of hoops.. I put in a new battery and it all stopped. I'm glad it was not just me and now there is a known problem and fix.

[@johnscott6072]

My 2018 did that one time at about 17k miles I didn't think about it being the battery. Started to struggle with start, so I went to dealer and they replaced the battery under warranty. It wasn't until I came across a video where someone was discussing modern cars (specifically the A/C) and how the batteries play a far greater role in the vehicle electronics (which affect pretty much everything in modern vehicles) than decades ago. That's when the light bulb went on and I figured that was the cause for my stuttering on acceleration. Hasn't happened since I replaced the battery.

[@anthonycella9548]

Thanks for the info! My 2018 SV just started doing this. Still under warranty so hopefully the dealer can replace the battery. If not, going with your recommendation. Thanks again!

[@GlenStoner]

I've had a few small issues with the trans on my 2017 Titan. Sometimes I get a hard shift almost a clunk of a shift when I use the toggle switch between 3rd and forth at slower engine speeds. Other times it would flutter at low engine speeds in 2nd gear especially if going up hill. My tach wasn't bouncing like what you showed in the video. My original battery was replaced twice under warranty.

[@poaleevang332]

I had no start issues with low voltage. Baught a new yellow top battery too. About three months later the pronlem returned. Did some research and found that there is a problem with the voltage regulator. Been 6 months now and no more starting issues. I just disconnected the voltage regulator on the negative battery connector.

[@4KMotoring]

These electrical gremlins can be a pain to track down. I had similar issues with my Corvette replacing a couple alternators and voltage regulators before solving that problem. I know my old 1st Gen Titan ate batteries every couple years, so far the yellow top is working for me flawlessly

[@robertcodling4211]

I'll be trying this today, thanks for the great video 👍

[@kylebutcher-sq1yk]

I had this same issue on my 2018 and as well no codes. Long story short. They had my truck for 3 months back and forth. Had to have a engineer come to my nissan shop to help and it was bad connections on the body harness all of them they replaced all of them and the cpu. If you had it sorry to say it's not over if you just changed the battery. Issue at 15k and 30k and 40k and 50k back and forth. After the changed all that on my truck no issues at all with that and I'm at 98k . Still dealing with a/c issues every summer

[@4KMotoring]

That's super frustrating. Modern vehicles have become so increasingly complex that I fear we should just expect this in the future. Luckily my issue has resolved from the battery and hasn't returned

[@slicksebring]

Same issue and symptoms happened 2 months ago to my 2018 Platinum Reserve. The battery was weak enough to be replaced under warranty by the dealer. No problem since the replacement.

[@4KMotoring]

That's nice, my dealer told me that I would have to keep coming back month after month to see when my battery would finally test bad enough to be replaced under warranty, that's why I bought it myself

Hmmmm. I have a 2020 Nissan Titian Pro4x. I have noticed a slow start, and am having a weird shifting issue with my truck. It is not as bad as what you saw, it is more of a shudder when shifting between gears. The truck will shake, but shortly after it evens out. It seems to be not as bad or happen almost not at all after driven for some time. I will monitor the voltage and perhaps change the battery and see what happens. I have 115,000 on mine, with factory battery, but I fear it may be mechanical issue. Do you have an updated link to the battery you used?

Unplug the grey cable from the negative terminal and make sure you're following the transmission fluid change schedule. You can search on the Optima website for the correct yellow top for your truck

I was thinking that the torque converter might be going out but after watching this maybe it is to weak of a battery??? 😮

[@oldmtbdudes6963]

I have a 2018 Titan Pro 4x and I'm getting a shift flare around 3rd gear. It goes away after I drive it for awhile but it is consistent just after start up. It does not have the original battery and I tested the battery and tester read the battery life at 60 percent remaining. Should I change the battery? I'm not the original owner. I have not noticed any slow starting. Great video. Also, after I bought the truck I did have the transmission flush service done at the Nissan dealer. Mark

[@4KMotoring]

Do you know how long you've had the battery in the truck? Both the first generation Titan and my current Titan have seemed to eat batteries pretty quickly. The slow starting and limp mode mine went into work clearly as a result of a weakened battery. Was testing good by Nissan but showing not fully charged so they wouldn't replace it under warranty... If yours is not doing the limp mode thing, only a single gear slip at certain temperature. It may be more of a torque converter or transmission issue rather than a computer generated limp mode.

[@biosteamllc9445]

There is a software upgrade from the dealer that helps. Install a sprint booster and it fixes it for the most part.

[@GenerationOldschoolEspañol]

My 2018 Nissan armada is doing the same thing that yours was doing

[@4KMotoring]

New battery time!

[@a2bendit]

Mine only does some jerking when accelerating. But once I've been running for a little bit. I have no issue. No bangs. Maybe a odd crank every now and then but my battery is under a year old. I read about a torque converter but that I would think that would be bad all the time not only while the engine was cold. I bought the battery from Walmart so probably not the highest CCA

[@4KMotoring]

Try disconnecting the grey plug from the negative battery terminal to see if you get any improvements

[@GenerationOldschoolEspañol]

What’s your opinion when it comes to removing the smart alternator plug?

[@4KMotoring]

I made another video about that, it seems to lessen the draw from the battery and provide more consistent voltage. Will have to wait to see if it provides any longevity benefits

[@delsteroth]

I'm currently having strange issues but not with my tranny. Fan Clutch roaring and slow forward motion and nav screen rebooting at various times. 2018 Nissan Titan XD 4x4 going on 40k miles. I've been to the dealer 3 times on the issue and receiving deer in headlight look. Saw you video and went to my truck with a voltage meter. Not running I show 12 volts. Running showing 14 respectively on an analog meter. This issue has just started within the year. Your video has merit for all the electrical considerations. The one thing that puzzles me. You were able to remote start your truck with the hood up. Mine will not. Which I found out with volt meter attached to battery and hood up. Not even with volt meter attached and hood closed. Interesting. Your thoughts? I was wanting to see the draw down on starting.

[@4KMotoring]

These issues are always puzzling. I've had my fan clutch replaced under warranty, as it seems to be a common problem with these trucks. My aftermarket remote start may be a different brand than yours, so that may be the difference in starting with the hood up. The nav screen rebooting is one I've heard from several people, usually resulting in replacement of the infotainment system. That said, if you're still running your original battery it's probably starting to die. Mine was still testing "acceptable" but was definitely bad. At least, a new battery will rule out that as a possible issue

[@delsteroth]

@@4KMotoring I’ve looked on the internet about your battery. Of course I’m ready more good than bad on the reviews. What makes me lean towards your battery. I do have an inverter and this battery is recommended for that. And I have had the fan clutch changed, twice within the year. But understanding low voltage. I can see why the nav would reboot. Minor voltage drop. Looking at the fan clutch I see a brush pad riding on the sleeve. Another electrical. If I were reading more than 12v on the battery. I would rule it out. But it looks like the alternator is working over time. Thanks for your video. If you came direct me on a nav video with my experience. I’d appreciate.

[@delsteroth]

Update: Low and behold my transmission eventually did what yours did. Off to Amazon and bought my Optima D27F. My part number is different though, 8037-127. I see a difference between yours and mine is the CA. Not a big difference. 1000 vs 1025. But my other issues so far have not presented themselves, yet. When the transmission did what yours did sold me on the new battery.

[@jasonbarthle9660]

The main thing probably started from that Nissan titan smart alternator crap and which most people have been unplugging them because of the problems they cause. I watch my voltage jump all the time and I'm debating on just completely unplugging mine especially since the transmission seems off at times. The voltage jumping can't be good for the electronics

[@livingsimpl3]

My 2019 nissan titan is doing that between 30 to 40 mph and after that drives great. My battery is reading 12.30 volts now,do you think that this could be kind of a issue?

[@4KMotoring]

These trucks (and many new vehicles) are incredibly sensitive to small voltage changes. When are you measuring your battery voltage? Immediately after driving or the next morning? A full battery should read 12.6v. if it's more than a year old, it's probably time for a new one. Unplug the grey cable while you're at it

I took it into nissan to have a full inspection done and was told that the transmission and torque converter need to be replaced. Through Nissan, that tallies up over $10,400, which is half of what the vehicle cost me. I did ask about the ecu, tcu, or computer flash/ upgrade and was told there was no update available for it.

That's frustrating! It's a fail-safe limp mode. Without storing any codes, a voltage issue is the typical cause. Throttle body and torque converters are other frequent causes

[@chrisludwig9783]

@@4KMotoring It is frustrating cuz I love the truck and I don't want to get rid of it. I guess I'll try throttle body then voltage. so if it's the torque converter, they want to replace the whole trans?

[@danmckenzie9153]

The Nissan Dealer said replace torque converter and transmission.

[@chrisludwig9783]

my problem was the torque converter. all good now

[@danielk0106]

Could've just told us the problem and to swap the battery. 🤣 2 minute video but great info

I think you're looking for tiktok, not KZbin!

@@4KMotoring couldn't resist but I'm a Titan fan as well. I was looking for the stereo upgrade video. Are you doing that Phoenix radio? I hope not. 👍

[@4KMotoring]

@@danielk0106 I love how big the Phoenix screen is, but I know better than to trust the Chinese android type tablets. I have the Pioneer AVH-w4400NEX installed in my Corvette and am happy with it, I will likely go with pioneer or alpine when I'm ready to update the Titan (with wireless Android Auto/ Apple Carplay)

[@danielk0106]

@@4KMotoring They say there's a Pioneer unit that works with all the controls on the Titan's steering wheel without needing extra components. My OEM has become glitchy. Turning off and on, freezing and tuning from a local station to satellite radio on its own 🤣

[@edgardorosa3619]

Did you replace both of the batteries?

[@Samandnae04]

Is yours Cummins

[@4KMotoring]

No, it's the 5.6L gasser with the 7 speed transmission. I test drove a couple of the Cummins powered trucks but wasn't impressed by them

[@MrBlack-cd1ot]

Remove the grey plug on negative terminal. The smart alternator undercharges battery on short trips, under 8 miles and battery fails

[@4KMotoring]

Yes! I have another video on that!

[@rustywalters80]

I thought that was stuck in safe mode

[@carlosponce3350]

I have titan 2018 sv with 83000 miles, nissan already put new transmission for my truck!!

[@4KMotoring]

Yikes! How often were you changing fluid?

[@carlosponce3350]

They never told me about changing fluids!!

[@JHar-di6rr]

2019 gas Nissan Titan when traveling at normal speed then try to accelerate the engine and and the transmission downshift and then it would not go any faster than 20 miles an hour. One thing no one mentioned in this video when this happens, the traction control lights come on .Dealer replaced the transmission now. I’ll try this fix deep cycle batteryYellow topOptima.

[@johnrosenbalm2197]

My Titan does have kinda weak start right now and was sitting in drive thru and truck would barely move forward. Traction control light was on and check engine. Got it moving but wouldn’t get over 20mph. So I cut it off for a couple of minutes and crank it up and traction control light went off and drove home normal, but check engine light is still on

[@4KMotoring]

How old is your battery?

[@johnrosenbalm2197]

@@4KMotoring it’s a Nissan Battery and I looked and couldn’t find the date on it. I got the truck in November of 2022

[@4KMotoring]

That maybe it, is definitely a good place to start. I'll be doing a video soon on disconnecting the smart alternator setting to hopefully end some of these problems our trucks have
