Why Nissan CVT's are a FAILURE

JUNK!

Where is the best place to get quality parts

Why should we have to add things?

Nissan has been making these for over 20 years had many multi million dollar lawsuits and the still can’t get this right

Summary of video… DONT BUY NISSANS WITH CVT.

I won't buy one period!!!

Complex GEEZ !

Honda bought struggling failing Nissan

This is so useful to know. My J31 Maxima doesn't have an accessible filter or drain plug and apparently "lifetime" fluid. It's 17 years old and done 244,000km 🤞
I'll now be researching how to change the CVT fluid.

Car stop driving forward, and it only works on reverse. Any idea what part i need to change.

Good afternoon I have a quick question? I have a 17 qx60 with the notorious cvt transmission. Is it possible for me to mate a transmission from a 2022 qx60? Thank you

It's interesting to se how the bean counters have ruined a time and tested power transfer method and made it unreliable. If they didn't cheap out on parts such as balls instead of keys in the keyways and had multiple seals per piston I could see this being a fairly reliable transmission. There's less friction and overall moving parts then a standard geared transmission which would seem like a no brainer.

Looking at how these transmissions are designed just make me feel like they can fail at any moment and there's nothing u can do to prevent it

IOI have a subaru with a CVT. Why would I feel a change in gears like a regular AT?
I can get it to not 'shift' if I use a slow steady pressure on the gas pedal.
But, in most cases I feel a 'shift' even though there are no gears. Why?

2007 Nissan Sentra with cvt here purchased new. Replaced (drain and fill) cvt fluid every 30k miles. She just flipped 160,000 miles. I want to get a couple more low mile years out of her as a in town grocery getter. Otherwise no issues with this cvt.

it only failed because nissan doesn't set cvt oil change intervals to their transmissions, honda cvts have cvt oil changes every 15,000 miles

Cvt = junk do t matter who makes it CVT profit center for car mfg that dont give a shit about reliability

Nissan trucks are the only ones with 5-9 speed transmissions and 6 speed manual I’m happy about that.

I am a cvt victim from germany. Have a Nissan Juke 2015 with 99.000 km. Now the cvt failed totally. Repair cost more than 11.500,- Euro. Nissan will pay nothing. The transmission is crap. Somtime ago the Nissan-dealer said, that a cvt oil chance isnt´t necessary. BS

Nissan is doing nothing to help their customers fix their very expensive CVT transmissions. I still have a 8K loan on a vehicle I can't drive. Thanks Nissan.

I believe one of the main reasons they fail is do to lack of schedual maintence . also the drivers driving habits, Such as hard accelerations.

I have a 4 will drive transmission can you please tair down on for me please thanks 👍

"even though their late model cars are still failing" LOL

They are not made to haul ass or abuse they are made to save gas . Treat them right and maintenance they will last .

"Change your fluid." The worst part in any design is the customer.

What supplier do you use for parts?

You know what is a failure? Sticking an apostrophe into something because you think that makes it a plural.

Does anyone make a good replacement?

No fluid change at 30k miles and those that scream away from lights using it as an ON/OFF switch will reap the rewards of a broken car.

Great vlog I had a Vauxhall Corsa 1.4 auto on an 18 plate
I renewed the trans oil twice with exactly the same amount and it started to judder upon acceleration once it was fully warmed up, I did everything correctly as advised and was very disappointed ☹️

I like Nissan. They are top when it comes to design but I don't understand why they risk their business because of bad transmission. They should have fired their Chief Engineer and CEO.

I hear they’re simpler, lighter and cheaper to make than standard. Automatics sure is amazing. How many parts was in that thing to be a simpler design than standard automatics !

You’re so lucky having all those old clothes. I wish my family weren’t all nudists 🤪

Oné thinğ yoü didn't be mention is frequency of oil changes on this Typé

Busting Knutts, Pullers, This slides up and down on this shaft, behindé it is a piston, Balls falling out , vibrations,
Wut am I watching
😂😂😁😁😀😀

Your brother is gna be mad you took a piece off his shirt 😂😂😂

The more i see these teardowns the more i'm grateful for owning a toyota hybrid...

I will never own a CVT transmission, regardless of manufacturer. They're garbage.

Excellent video. Transmission seemed simple at first...

The servicing software (Haynes) i use in my garage does not state the fluid replacement interval for the European specification (I own a 2016 Auris hybrid). When I called Toyota service help desk and asked about it they said "Sir, these transmissions are sealed for life".
Erm, nah. It's coming to 50k miles and I'll he changing the fluid shortly. Not taking any chances, even though it's a Toyota.

I wold trust you to give me a heart transplant

Total insanity, ... I will never buy a cvt transmision car. Period

Have owned 4 Nissan Altima's. Was getting set to buy a new 2019 when heard about cvt transmission and backed away. Had a friend buy one about same time and had is cvt go at 60,000km. Thannks no thanks. Dodged a bad bullet.

Change your oil and dont push them too hard. Drive conservatively!!!

I'm not going anywhere whit eny Nissan Murano to change the spark plugs you have to take the top off the motor of and a lot of money spent on every month and the electric coil not good you have to pay too much money for the one I have

Some of the newest ones don't have the tube anymore either! They must have realized we could still change the fluid easily

CVT is a Bad design, technology suppose to go forward, instead it is going backword, from good long lasting hydrolic planetary gear transmission to a weak CVT one that dosent last very long and it is weak meaning you can trust it to tow somethimg behind the car or even going on dangerous uphill, CVT: power of the car rely on a belt or chain on a flat variable wheel, that crazy and stupid, they convert cars to motorcycle, at least motorcycle id better because the chain is attached to a gear with teeth from both sides engine and the wheel.
