CVT Transmission Rebuild in Less Than 20 Minutes - Nissan NV200 | Nissan Doctor 

Jatco* Jatco designed these transmissions. Nissan/Renault just overly invested into them lol. They are also the same manufacturer (Jatco) that made the CD009-CD00A transmission for the 350/G35 - 370Z/G37 that is capable of holding up to 800HP with no issues other than slight synchro wear

They've been around since 1896 why you think is that...?

Jatco makes it not nissan they just put it in their janky cars lol

My altima needed a new transmission after 70k. It’s ridiculous how bad they are.

@@Keawemauhili697mine is a 54 k just blew the tranny I feel you

Yeah, I caught that too..

Yeah,the most important he didn't show...,i call it bullshit

How much

Any suggestions on what to replace and what to leave?

Interesting

@Vic02 You make a good point but no one seems to distinguish the V6 CVT being any better than the 4 cylinder in most press releases I read. However, I agree overall V6 engines across the board in any brand are more durable and reliable than 4 cylinders.

If cvt transmission is from 2010 to 2014. All those cars are getting close to 150K at least. So everyone is gonna star having Transmission problems. They should do a RECALL TO add the cooling system. Before every Nissan CVT breaks down, especially Rogues.

You can add a aftermarket transmission fluid cooler with a radiator

They fail because the belts stretch, it is a common problem with the Jatco CVTs there should be a lawsuit over it.

The differential gears sound like no oil to me, is that possible?

Taste it. If it tastes good, then it's over. A buddy of mine would taste random puddles, and could tell you if it was oil, coolant, transmission fluid, urine, diarrhea, etc. Unfortunately I never got the hang of it.

Disconnect the cooler lines where they come from the radiator, or remove the transmission cooler/warmer from the transmission but leave the coolant lines connected. Then pressurize the radiator with a cooling system leak tester and see if coolant comes out of the open oil lines, your tranny is contaminated if coolant comes out here. Also, if the oil level increases in the transmission, thats where it is coming from. There is really no other fluid that leaks into the transmission without you adding it.

There is no clutch

@@joshuamast5128 I think he mean those two rolling wheel thing for belt. it called clutch in some video that explain about cvt.

It was replaced chain assembly it works as clutch the big piece lifted with engine hoist

@@joshuamast5128 Then why they call them clutch packs?

I'm from Russia, in Moscow there is a service that has been repairing cvts for a long time and does it very well with a 100,000 km guarantee. I'm surprised that this is not possible in the USA.

Is the losing of a class action lawsuit by Nissan for failure to acknowledge and recall an engineered design flaw put into production on every model from years 2014, 2015, 2016 specific enough for you?

Baby it and make sure don't overheat because CVT are hot box.

Replace your torque converter if you really want the fluid to be clean

As long as it meets ns3 specs idemitsu makes NS3 fluid for Nissan and sells their own much cheaper

Install extra trans fluid cooler and add some Hotshot’s Secret Shift Restore.

They will always use a remanufactured or rebuilt unit. All companies do that. They are not going to waste a brand new unit on a used vehicle

Probably low on fluid it was happening to me

I agree. Just disassembled the covers and "replaced" the entire main drive unit with a new one from dealer. Didn't show me nothing...coulda just bought an entire new complete unit for what the mechanic in the video is gonna charge for that drive unit plus all the time he took taking the covers apart and playing with his fancy fluid vaccuum...

The belt itself is comprised of some odd 2000 individual little clips. Each having a indent on its lower back and detent on upper front, holding each other in place. The groves of the two pullies it rides in are inclined and they slide back and forth. Fluid pressure being the force that determines their position. Which inturn manipulate the tension and shape of this $1500 belt. The advantage of this design is cutting half the size and weight of a traditional transmission, thus being a big roll in achieving those high MPG's. But also resulting in higher temperatures in it of itself. Poorly managed by an inadequate cooler. Heat causes this impressively engineered belt to fail. Whether Jatco's engineers reluctantly and ultimately refused to bring light of such an error. Or the company itself intentionally swindled Nissan with an initial first production run of high quality control then cut costs after contacts were deemed satisfied and locked in. Or perhaps neither Nissan or Jatco were unaware of an issue until thousands had already been sold (God forbid either company take what would be a significant loss to correct). My money says that cvt was common knowledge being a PoS before the first production left out the door

Get rid of that car and buy a Honda ASAP!

Keep your original transmission valve body and swap it into the junkyard core

Same thing if you never change it after 70k don’t change it you will clog it up

I had a Nissan Sentra cvt. At 50k miles it started to slip and reverse was sooo weak. So I replaced the tranny oil and it’s filters myself (bought just original Nissan oil) and it worked perfectly again, just like brand new. ( I sold it when it was 80k miles and still working fine) So don’t be scared to replace your oil, cvts works way different that normal transmisión ( in torque converter tranny is not recommended to change the oil when is high mileage and you have never change it before)

Change the oil bro lol

They do, it’s sealed in the main drive unit which is not serviceable in Nissan CVTs. I wouldn’t consider this a full rebuild.

My transmission lasted 95k.

I hate Nissan and their cars now. Never again.

Manufacturer recommendation destroyed your car? That's a new one for me

Their transmission last like rotary engine.

You can't really properly maintain a Rube Goldberg mechanism. These things are designed to fail, and fail so expensively that there won't be a second hand market for them and people will have to buy new cars. If they can afford it that is. The way things are going, half the country is going to be without a vehicle by 2030.

Exactly! I thought I was going to see them. I already know how to clean gasket material off a housing

it was the housing he pulled with the hoist,he replace the complete unit

@@JesusRodriguez-hl1iy What click bait

Why would you want to do that?

It's a racket.

Forgot subaru, mate

@@erikssongl9897 decent, definitely better than Nissan, but still not as good as toyota/lexus

Toyota and Ford. CVTs

@@JJones2011 still definitely better than most, but after seeing a video of a clapped out prius pulling a huge 16k pound trailor which it isn't designed to do ofc, from that point on especially I was in like flin man vids called We Did It!! We Towed 16,000 LBS With our Toyota PRIUS!!!! It Hated It!!! Video is by JH Diesel and 4X4 This Dude has a few on his channel of this monstrosity that at the least is worth a laugh brotha. Seen many other things over the years too.

ford!!??? all i see on mp are ford cvts broken along with the nissans lol @@JJones2011

How much did the dealer charge you?.

@@lnstaKarma $4500

Nearly the same price for a new one

3500

In 2019 I had to get my cvt replaced. I had an extended warranty through my bank so I paid less but the bank had to pick up the tab that was about $4,500 and took about 2 and a half weeks. I suspect it would cost more and take longer with shortages of parts and staff with the necessary skills. A junk yard might be a good place to look for a car with a transmission to bandaid while you limp along and save for a full on replacement cvt. I know the comment was made a while ago but this info will hopefully be valuable to those in this situation and stumble across my comment. If you have not had trouble yet, get a warranty the day you get your car inspected (if applicable). That's what saved my bacon from being denied. They can't raise any concerns about it already existing if you get your inspection the same day.

Commercial Van 2016 - 98k miles. Still under warranty. 5 years or 100k miles warranty on these trucks.

@@NissanDoctor Doesn't look like anything exploded inside, so was it the valve body that failed?

Is always the valve body that fails and makes the belt slip. Once the belt slips, then most of the time we have to replace the sub-assembly and the other components.

@@NissanDoctor So is a pro-active service of the valve body a good idea? Is Nissan / Jatco making any improvements to the valve body to extend their lifespan?

Hello, no pro-active service you can do, unless Nissan comes up with a program update or some type of recalls. Yes they do make improvements all the time, the newer transmissions are way better than the older ones, but there are ways to go still. In my personal opinion these transmissions have no place on commercial trucks or towing yet. My personal opinion.

In Mexico the Mechanics don’t use one either, its just matter of Practice. Y son CHINGONES. 🤣

6:17 old out, 8:55 new in.

He replaced the entire belt/pulley assembly with a brand new one.

@@curtreimer2150 I must have missed it!

And the pump so it must have been the cause
