I have the same car, It is awesome no problems at all 140 000 miles runs like new. I flush all the fluids, change all filters, changed all spark plugs and spark plug wires. Ceramic brake pads. Go to a great mechanic and have them do a 3 step fuel fuel injection cleaning service. Make sure they use BG products. It gets rid of all carbon build up The car roars now. Also use royal purple engine oil it is better then mobil 1 one oil. It drives like a race car now!!!! Also use Trico Titan wipers they work the best.

Change the filters? The tranny filter is like a screen that's about it. An oil change is sufficient Some people dont even do that.

4 qts 6 oz, drain and fill. 19mm draing plug bolt My mom has a 2010 with 72k, she bought it woth 60k and the stealership said it was "serviced" before, we shall see when I rip her Cube apart and go from there. I was going to do the "filters" but they are just fine screens, maybe with an actual paper element but I'll digress, changing the fluid is detrimental first and foremost. If there are tons of shavings and noises already, you have better things to worry about than your fluid. Replacement with either idemitsu or Valvoline, maybe Castrol if i can find it. NS-2 fluid type. Not sure if NS-3 has backwards compatibility like engine oils and gear oils.

@WhipCityWrencher2 жыл бұрын
So far the car is running fine. At the time, she had just purchased the car recently, so I just changed it as routine maintenance and will keep changing it at about 30,000 to 40,000 miles. If you want these CVT transmissions to last it's best not to leave the oil in there too long. Right now the Castrol fluid has about 7,000 miles on it. Thanks for watching👍

You're Welcome! These are CVT transmissions "Continuously Variable Transmission" They don't really have gears, but an oil and filter change may help if you are having problems. Do you have any transmission codes? A Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) does not make use of gears like a basic automatic transmission. Rather, it uses 2 pulleys linked by a belt. It's a bit like a snowmobile transmission: One pulley connects to the engine, the other one links to the transmission. The belt transfers the power between them.

Hi Eric, You can leave the dipstick in or out if it's just sitting in your driveway, don't drive with it out, and let it warm up when you check it. If you have no leaks and you put in the same amount as you took out you should be all set.👍🙏😊

I 'm looking to buy either a Nissan Cube CVT or a 4 speed auto . I have had automatic cars before , filters as well engine oil change once every 18 months and never had a problem . I have been told if i buy a CVT to change the gearbox oil every year! would I be right in thinking this gearbox is so much more fragile and less durable then a 4 speed auto or a 5 speed Manuel ?
@WhipCityWrencher2 жыл бұрын
I don't know too much about these CVT transmissions, but yes that's what I've heard also. JMHO. but after every 30,000 miles, if you change the Transmission oil and filter which I will do next time, they will probably last a long time if driven gently. The 4 or 5-speed transmissions can probably take more punishment than the CVT without failing. JMHO Thanks for watching and your question👍
