One thing most techs and people don't know about the Jatco CVT- It's got a hidden very fine material filter behind the cooler that bolts to the case and it stops up around 50K sometimes earlier for folks that drive aggressive. Since it doesn't get changed, it causes the trans to run too hot and fail a lot quicker.

The one huge benefit to a CVT is that if you pay attention, you can keep the engine in its power band and let the transmission catch up. My Honda accelerated faster if I keep the engine at about 3700 or so and let the transmission adjust as the speed climbs, than if I do what Scotty did here and wind it right out and force the transmission to make large ratio changes at one time. I’m sure he knows that too and was doing what he did intentionally but that’s not how I would drive MJ e if I wanted to pass someone.

With these transmissions, you should not use them in the manual mode. If you use them that way regularly, the steel belt in the trans will wear into the pulleys at each pretend gear that it switches the pully ratio to. Also to get the most out of these terrible transmissions, you should change the trans fluid and filter every 30k miles religiously. (Just change it, don't flush it)

CVT WARRANTY EXTENDED .. In Dec 2021, I bought a fully loaded 2018 Rogue SL (manufactured in Japan) with 22,000 miles. Now 7,000 miles put on it and no reliability issues. The original drive train warranty is 5 years/60,000 miles which of course includes the CVT. However in Feb 2023, Nissan sent me a letter that the CVT warranty was extended to 7 years/84,000 miles to "… address concerns … expressed by plaintiffs in class action litigation". Now I feel much better about the purchase.

Both my dads 2014 Pathfinder and my moms Murano have bucking issues at low speeds. It was just a few months ago I was driving through a residential neighborhood doing 25 mph while barely touching the gas and I could feel it bucking and the RPM gauge indicated that. The tack was bouncing back and forth between 1500 and 1750 RPM. It’s like the transmission can’t decide on whether or not to drive in 2nd or 3rd “gear” (I know they don’t have gears). My 2014 Toyota RAV4 doesn’t do that driving that exact same way.

The pullies inside are starting to stick and the transmission's are trying to find the ratio they want, but the pullies aren't cooperating because the bearing balls the pullies slide on are crumbling. They will fail soon, best to decide what to do with them while they still move. First try a fluid and filter change, but if nothing changes, or if there is a bunch of metal in the trans pan, they will need a overhaul.

My 2009 Subaru impreza had a cvt transmission with 137k miles and started having shifting issues so I traded it in for a newer 2021 model. When I would accelerate it would go up to like 40 mph then downshift on its own then shift back up for no reason. No stress on the motor or anything. Also found that using premium fuel was perfect. Regular gave bad mileage and super would cause it to kick really hard on acceleration from having fantastic acceleration. Went with premium problem solved 90%.

2009 does not have cvt my friend bc i have a 2010 impreza(i have drained its transmission) its a 4eat that gen. Its the 2012+ Imprezas with a cvt. If you had shifting issues you should have dropped the pan changed the filter and possibly the shift solenoid.On top of that maybe even lucas oil bc according to manual it is actually compatible with dextron and mr subaru on youtube recommends.

Honestly anything with a CVT with Mitsubishi is a lottery at best. You can drive the thing decently spirited and forget to do the fluid changes diligently and have issues but then do the fluid swaps as needed in the manual and baby the car and have the transmission grenade itself before reaching 60k miles.

worst cvt transmission was the cvt in saturns! I worked for saturn and you were lucky for the cvt to last 20,000 miles in the SUV seen many not make it much past 10,000 miles when in a car they lasted longer but still failed. Some Aftermarket warranty companies stopped offering warranties on them which I dont blame them because it was a gaurentee for the transmissions to fail. Its crazy to me how a transmission so bad ever gets put into production how do they not test them to know i mean in this situation if they only put them in cars and use a different transmission for the suv's it would have been a much smaller problem.

@metalmike570 Жыл бұрын
The purpose of the switch is to turn off the automatic overdrive. It mean turn off the overdrive gear, which is the highest gear on the transmission. On my 1999 Corolla the overdrive gear is 4th gear. I don't know why I would want to turn off the 4th gear (overdrive) but it has the button just like your Crown Vic does. I tell you what, google the question Why Should I turn off the Automatic Overdrive on my car, and then get back to me!

I personally like CVT's but they definately are not for people who do not feel how their cars reply to aggressive drivers.... like my father.He drove my car once and I could tell he definately strained the system. It took me a while to retrain it and it seems to be back to normal. Another trick I tend to use is letting go of the gas and then re-pressing the gas to reset the tension. It's more of a skill to use them.

What year is his? We recently bought a 2018 that's really basic because it was a company car. The company did all the regular upkeep on it & its still in great shape, he just likes to purchase new cars every 2 years & got a massively good deal from the dealer for buying 5 new cars at once when the market was bad. Only driving issue I have is the same complaint he has for it in low speeds. My other issue is we took our kids down the road to a local beach & I didn't think to get the info of the truck & boat trailer that pulled up beside me. Later on when we were ready to leave there was a NASTY deep & long gouge out of my back right quarter panel & it's dented in a little. Wouldn't you know it, this marina puts all it's security cameras on the Ferry & the 12 boats that rent slips. They don't have a single CCTV on the parking lot & playground areas. Luckily the damage is all cosmetic, the sensors all still work fine but MAAAAAN was I pissed. We were on day 5 of our 7 day Love it or bring it back test drive. Had we taken it back that repair would've come out of MY pocket. Back in the day I could've fixed that myself just like my father taught me. But new cars there's all the recalibration of the computers & high tech "Nope don't do it"
