Is the 2024 Nissan Sentra a BETTER new compact sedan than a Toyota Corolla? 

My cvt just went out on my 2020 nissan.I've been in too many forums to count and there are people complaining their 2022/2023 Nissan cvt is bad. They need to get it together before they release anymore cars.

@@rachelvalour2711show us videos of your 2020 going wrong

​@@rachelvalour2711our 14 rogue with the CVT has 160k miles on with no issues. We do the regular fluid changes at 30k though

@@rachelvalour2711 my Nissan Sentra 2014 still going strong! I changed out my cvt fluid every 25 thouansand miles!

@@scott8238I believe that is the key with CVT’s is maintenance-fluid changes every 30,000 miles like it says too. I have owned 6 Mitsubishi all bought new and now 1 Nissan and they all came with a CVT produced by Jatco. My 3 Mitsubishi Mirages (2015, 2017, 2021) and my Nissan Kicks (2023) all use the Jatco CVT-7 unit with just different tuning between Nissan and Mitsubishi. The Jatco CVT-7 has been reliable overall. Our Mitsubishi Outlander Sport (2016) and our two Mitsubishi Eclipse Crosses (2019’s) also used Jatco CVT’s but a different model. Years back they had a tons of bugs with Jatco CVTs especially in Nissan but most all of the issues have been worked out. Alot of the issues you see are due to poor maintenance, running the car like crazy, or not changing the fluid every 30,000 miles like it says to.

Fixed??? … same piece of shit Jatco as before!

They didn’t , new Nissans transmission going out at less than 50k miles like NO

@@heychlooooo Because the frugal people buying these cars dont know to change the CVT fluid every 25-30K miles

These cars are reliable. Just take care of it and it’ll last. People judge Nissan badly mostly because of their OLD CVT issues, which have been corrected for while now.

The engines are solid. It's the CVT but if you can get a manual (Canada) It's solid and way more fun.

Nah new Nissans are also conking out

True garbage transmissions but hoepfully it's fixed

Great review! Yes to manual stick with turbo

I got a 2022s crashed it now I'm buying either the 24 or 25sr depending on how fast I can get a good deposit

Got one in a manual in Canada. The 6 speed is better, but it's not in the class of Honda manual transmission......

@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8 Yes, the manuals should be much more reliable too. I own a 1.8 Honda Civic and a 1.5 Nissan Livina (3 row Versa in Asia Pacific), both of them are pretty reliable partly because of naturally aspirated machine and manual transmission

​@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8How much trouble is it buying in Canada but living in the United States?

@@wilchambers1401 Its not an easy procedure. Probably better to have an Canadian resident buy the 6 speed manual Sentra in Canada and then import the vehicle to your US residence. Thats my guess......

​@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8you guys also have the Sentra cup race

I agree, tell that to Toyota owner…

So true

Have fun replacing your crap transmission at 9,000 miles like I did.

​@@sc3034yeah okay...we have 150k on our 14 Sentra CVT

@@sc3034One in a million chances.

I have 121,000 miles on my 2017 Nissan Sentra. Same CVT transmission and bought the car new. @@scott8238

Notice that too. He never gets in the driver backseat, maybe to sell how big/less room one has depending on the make of the car? Idk lol

Any reason why now are not considered?

Most car brands are phasing out fog lights completely. They will be a thing of the past soon unless people get them custom installed

@@mr.grumps3544I notice that. Why are car companies going away from fog lights?

@@415alkeez Because they no longer serve a purpose. Supposedly the lighting in the headlights of newer vehicles work just as well as fog lights.

​@@415alkeezAnd fake, plastic vents are more attractive lol.

Best bet would be the Sentra nismo

You mean a 6 or 7 SPD manual?

@@AIDAHAR210 no I want an 8 speed auto

@@Daley_GV why lol? A manual is a lot better for a lightweight performance compact.

I always thought it was the MAXIMA going away not the Altima

What didn't you like about the Sentra, just curious

@qnzman578 It felt very cheap and seriously lacked power. I’ve driven cars with 1.8L engines for years and I know they’re not going to jump off the line but the Sentra was extraordinarily slow. It didn’t make me feel safe.

Drove a rental corolla for 6 weeks … trust me when I tell you … The SR blows it out of the water .. we all drive inside car … the Corolla interior is dated 1998-2000s ish… features are 2003 ish… please don’t be bias.. just look at your car and look at a sentra.

Agreed, the Sentra looks sensational. Nothing beats it in the class.

@@TRPERA Says "please don't be biased". Proceeds to be biased. I like the Corolla, you like the Sentra. We all have preferences, it's not a big deal.

Nope. Look elsewhere like boring Mazda.......

​@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8lol imagine calling Mazda boring 😂

​@@fortheloveofnoisemazda is boring

@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8It obvious your level of excitement is the Chevy Spark!

@@fortheloveofnoiseit is tho

Yeah the Altimas are huge man

Turbocharged tech is a waste on such small cars and it only brings problems. It’s unnecessary.

Look at the jetta and Malibu😢

Mitsubishi Mirage

230i

Honda Civic

@@HeyImDiO thanks

And so does Honda & Toyota.

Nissan isn’t the only company .. -VW -GM -Honda -Toyota -Ford even -BMW

Toyota: most catastrophic recall in automotive history & constant engine sludge issues. Honda: most recalls in automotive history & their 2016+ 1.5T engines are catching fire well before Hyundai/Kias 2.4L. Do your research & stop watching Scotty Kilmer.

@@JustinPennitoHey! I like Scotty lol

So do other brands.

Go online they’re listed at multiple dealers by me at least in IL for like 21-22k for an SV trim

@@davewilson7602 that’s an SR trim…. That’s why I said this car…. None of them start at 20k. Not even the S trim

Exactly, not sure why Joe brought up the starting price on the lowest trim, rather than the SR trim shown in the video. It does start at nearly 30k, and there’s WAY better options to choose from at that price point

That would be really nice if they did.

Digital gauges cheapen the interior, it is cheaper to make digital screen gauges than actual analog gauges nowadays. They make it seem like it is such a luxury, but it is actually a downgrade. You don't need all those extra gimmicks in the screen, and even if you want them, just make them accessible in the central touch screen.

Most Honda and Toyota cars are cvt’s as well. So..

@@trevorfoster9028 ya and those cars are also boring to drive

I am not Joe. but the CVT in the Sentra is fine and Nissan Jatco has done some changes like better cooling for the CVT since 2019....

​@@crow_2k11beatsbydre8still a jatco cvt. No matter what updates they do it they're still junk

@@mattmekhaeil Keep living in the past. NISSAN Jatco CVT failure rate since 2019 is much lower. Remember some owners of CVT neglect tranny fluid change and blame the Car brand......

@@mattmekhaeilthey’re fine now. Nissan vehicles reliability has improved a lot overall over the last 6 years. This Sentra is ok, so is the cvt used in it

Yes, they did for '24.
