[@stealthg35infiniti94]

If you go to the Nissan Stealership when your CVT is acting up, it's too late. Service your CVT often with fresh fluid every 30k miles. That way chances are that you will get a much longer life out of the CVT. Fluid is cheap, Transmission are expensive.

[@lvsqcsl]

The 'ol Marquis has a 4R70W transmission that at 470,000 miles still shifts like it did when I bought the car new. I will continue to drive it.

[@paulstandaert5709]

@@ronaldderooij1774 If you look up the cost of a used transmission for a 2019 Outlander, you will see them at $3,500+. Any time used engines/transmissions cost that much, it is either something like a Viper or Jaguar, or they are piles of crap. There's a 2012 Suzuki SX4 for sale locally that I want, but the CVT transmission is pooched and there is only one within 200 miles of home, and even then, it is $2,000 with 126,xxx miles. Not that the SX4 is a common vehicle, though. These are all Jatco units. The same manufacturer as the ones used in the Ford Freestyle and DaimlerChrysler used them for awhile as well. The Subarus don't seem to have much trouble, despite being made by Jatco. The honda civic CVT transmisisons can be had for really cheap, and the Corolla ones aren't terribly expensive, either. I dunno. Mazda is seemingly the only one still using a slush box transmission. Dual-clutch and CVTs are everywhere, making a Hybrid one of the theoretically most reliable drivetrains available in the new market right now. I think Infiniti is still using slush boxes as well.

[@dfields9511]

I have a nissan maxima 2001 , not a CVT. trans started going at 202k miles or so, P0744. did a slow flush via 3x drain and fill with 1k miles between. old fluid was very dark but did not smell bad. after the slow flush using Valvoline Maxlife full synthetic ATF , Lucas and Seafoam transtune additives it became drivable but lost 4th gear (O/D) its been driven this way for 4 years and 41k miles and still going. about to get rid of this car as it served its purpose to give my son something to drive around while he saved up funds for another car and to ride out the higher price of used cars. it now has 243k miles one thing to note, Nissans are like Fords when they age, their electrical systems turned to mush. almost every problem I have had since about 180k miles has been electrical related by a electrical component breaking or wearing out.

If the identifix silver bullet doesn't fix it, they say "it'll have to go to the dealer, we don't have the whatever-tool you need for the job". And of course the dealers seem to be only able to fix cars half a dozen years old at most. But the quick diags like these, that call for major component replacement, they're valuable to see. I find I can easily get too caught up in tracking every possibility.

No one changes fluid until a problem. I've done a few of these cvt. They are like 1800 from a junk yard and like 2300 from the dealer for a reman. I've done them both ways. Customers don't always have the sense to understand 500 is nothing compared to having to redo a job.

[@johnm281]

My Jeep Patriot with a CVT transmission (same or similar trans as the Juke)had the same whine, would go into limp mode, changed filter and fluid AND another filter element running between the transmission and cooler, whine gone, works good. See if the Nissan has the same filter, change it, will restore fluid pressure.

[@randy1ization]

on the jeep the 4th gear servo is likely cracked, leaking fluid by instead of applying the correct pressure,, this can be changed without dropping the trans..

[@jeffm5366]

That whining sound from that Nissan Juke was so loud. Usually when the trans fluid pump starts whining like that, it's already too late. But the Jeep Liberty, that's a tough call. It could just be a gummed-up valve body. But if there are any signs of metal in the fluid, it's toast.

[@GreyRockOne]

Isn't the solenoid pack external? replacement doesn't always mean a fluid replacement like a internal solenoid pack

[@eddiereichel9354]

There was the one guy who bought 6 AutoZone coils and plugs for his Pathfinder. He never mentioned the cat being stepped on sound. Just the jerking that it was doing. He had a leak at axle seal. I quoted him for replacing fluid with Nissan and replacing the fluid with Nissan. He laughed at me and said he would buy a new transmission before he did that. I laughed at him and explained he has no idea what that meant. We ended up back and forth. I told him I was only taking cash for payment. He tried really hard to get me to take his credit card. Then he started telling me he was gonna sue me and I needed to take him to the ATM so he could get cash. Back and forth he pulled 5 100 bills out of his pocket. I laughed again and said see that's why I would not take your card. He planned on canceling the charge. Don't ever take a credit card from a disgruntled customer.

I forgot to add that he showed up with coils and plugs and told me it was jerking. I asked if he had flashing check engine light.

[@anonymuswere]

okay, that's what you call timing. I have an '11 Juke with the CVT, and I've been keeping an ear out because they have a reputation. now I know where to look for my tranny dipstick. I was actually consideing coming to you for a diagnostic, 'cause the car wouldn't lock, and even the dealership (i drove all the way to Indiana) couldn't figure it out. then a few months ago, ONE door actually DID start to lock, which confirmed it's not the BCM, the Fob (which I thought it was because of the condition) or the door lock switch (which is worn smooth!) but probably a bad case of Green Crusties or bent pins

[@lvsqcsl]

I am really glad during the test drive that you weren't returning home and that Rogue didn't give a big "buck;" a big shudder. You could have thought about that and then the dashboard could have lit up like a Christmas tree and it could have powered down and been done with just enough time to coast to the side of the road due to unfortunate rodents. Please tell me that your wife no longer owns that car that always breaks down when you are away; like you are now. I know you have treated her to a new Toyota Grand Highlander because you care very deeply for her. I think on that Juke you need to offer to change the transmission. (Don't shoot yourself.) That owner of the Jeep did the right thing. GREAT VIDEO!

[@adamtrombino106]

On that Jeep, there should be a menu to show clutch pack wear in %. For giggles, I would've done a clutch pack relearn because sometimes after a repair ( like that sol assembly or even a fluid change on a higher mileage trans) the adaptive strategy is too far biased to recalibrate on it's own. That being said, it may only work properly for a short time, which would prove excessive clutch pack wear. I've always hated the fact that Chryslers have the software immediately dump you into limp mode with the smallest glitch.

[@publicmail2]

I've had approved CVT fluid go bad after 25k and aerate causing whining pump, new CVT fluid fixed. Always change every 30k on Jatco CVT. Altima CVT does have external filter change every 100k.

[@JoseSilveira-newhandleforYT]

Great diagnostic on the Rogue, Ivan! Not so obvious at first glance. The Juke makes you clench something - brown transmission fluid, eew... Good decision by the Jeep owner!

[@LesReeves]

On the JEEP you need to take approx half of the fluid out & replace it with the correct fluid if it still has a long shift the clutches are just about worn out.(It is best done on a lift & take the pan off if it able to be done & replace the filter.If all the fluid was changed out at the last service it is probably a goner.)

[@bradfaught1695]

I did get that 5.3 with the oil above the intake valve fixed. I did find that the exhuast valve had some lateral movenent in its guide. So i ended up just getting a reman head for it, i didnt want to chance waiting on the local machine shop for months. I actually bought it off my customer cos it was gonna cost more than he wanted to spend.

[@albutterfield5965]

My wife has a 2010 dodge grand caravan 62TE trans that needed a new solenoid so i purchased the body/solenoid unit from amazon and it made the shifting worst, I contacted the seller but no response. The problem started out as being an intermittent one as on occasion the trans would not shift out of second, pull off the road and restart the car and the problem would go away for 3 or 4 days and then reappear, replaced the valve body/solenoid pack and now when it goes to shift out of second it does a hard down to first every time. I know that you always warn us about buying these types of parts from some online stores, I have learned my lessen. .

On those Moparwothout dipstick that are front wheel drive you can use oil dipstick. You just use metric ruler to measure fluid level. On that one ya can use a long piece of wire and measure fluid level on wire. All the fancy pants dipstick is just a metric ruler on the end of a cable.

Do you notice excessive engine revving going downhill on the older Nissan CVTs? I know it’s programmed that way as a brake assist feature but seems higher now over the past couple months.
