I didn't think the 2 door version version was that bad but I think Christ that Subaru didn't didn't ship that shit shit over here in America. I would much rather choose a 323 or Metro Is back in the day. Even the 1990 tercel was an upgrade.
May I ask why you hate cvt’s with a passion? Most people that say they hate them only say it cuz that’s what they heard or read about not cuz they really owned one before….
@@SubieandFriendsbecause they think it's not real transmission and not reliable. I did drive CVTs and it depends on the manufacturer. Toyota and Hondas are pretty good with their CVT(and ECVT if you get the Toyota Hybrid models). Nissans CVT yeah it sucks til they got their crap together.
@@SubieandFriends 2 cars with cvt transmissions 2 cars with transmission issues. I wouldn't COMMENT because I had heard they were terrible I know they are
@@gregg9672 interesting, I had several new Nissans with cvts and never had a cvt issue, 2007 Nissan Maxima SL, 2008 Nissan Altima coupe 3.5SE CVT, 2010 Nissan Rouge SL, 2011 Nissan Cube SL CVT, & 2012 Nissan Sentra SER CVT……now maybe those vehicles don’t count since I didn’t keep them for more then 2 or 3 years except for the last one, the 2012 Sentra I actually still have, 130k miles and it’s still running fine, especially the cvt, it’s still running good as new….could it be that I changed the cvt fluid every 30k miles? So I total I’ve done about 4 CVT transmission fluid changes and it’s time for another one….maybe that’s why? Maybe….but maybe the cvt is a bad design and it’s not uncommon for them to go bad even when properly maintained….theres been a long documented history of all the issues those cvts had in nissan vehicles since they first started using them with the 2003 Nissan Murano, followed by Nissan putting them in most of their passenger cars from 2007 and up(the Murano has always had a cvt)…but here’s the thing, Nissan don’t make those cvts, its an outside supplier that designs and builds them. Maybe if Nissan were to designed/build a cvt in house then maybe it would’ve been better….but still Nissan should take the blame since they still decide to put those cvts in their new cars, even after all the issues they had with them. I guess it’s easy when the cvt builder has to be the one to cough up the cost and the labor for installing a new cvt in a Nissan vehicle that is covered by warranty, Nissan doesn’t have to pay anything when it comes to the cvt. But not exactly….Nissan does pay something….and that something is pretty big in my eyes, which is…their reputation….that’s right….Nissan pays big by ruining their once great decent reputation that they used to have. Now look at them…..yikes! I mean it could be worst….they could be Mitsubishi….wait they own or own part of Mitsubishi…..well they could be Infiniti…..wait they make Infiniti too….yikes….anyways my current cvt equiped vehicle other then the Sentra is a 2018 Subaru Outback which I had since 2020, I got it with 67k miles and now I got it up to 125k miles and not a single issue with the cvt and I constantly take it Offroading and I mean constantly like on a biweekly basis ever since I got it, as matter of fact I’m on my 3rd set of all terrain tires, 1st set: BFG’s All Terrain KO3’s 2nd set: Toyos Open Country All Terrain KT3’s 3rd set: Yokohama Geolanders All Terrains of a (2023 Subaru Outback Wilderness) I guess the difference between Subaru and Nissan is that Subaru actually used an in house designed CVT, meaning they designed and built it themselves, now sure in the first couple of years 2012-2013 there were some cvt related issues but those were quickly resolved and now Subarus cvts are just as reliable as any regular automatic….hey the more you know…..and if you don’t know, well now you know.
