I'm not sure what the codes mean but have some advice. First Nissan has extended the warranty on CVT transmissions to 130k miles no matter how many owners.
On EBay you can buy a a product called a Elm327. They come for android or iPhone. It comes with links for free software. It plugs into your OBD under your dash. It reads codes and can reset them. It costs about $15.00
If one of your codes is EVAP related you must fix that first. A bad EVAP problem will cause other fault codes to pop up for no reason. I have had 6 Nissans, 3 have had SES light problems.

All codes are related to the CVT. Code P0705-Neustral postion switch, P0710-Fluid temp sensor circuit, P0715-Input speed sensor circuit and P0746-Pressure control solenoid "A" performance.
Do not where you live but find the best transmission shop is you area and have them look at the transmission. It is my understanding the Nissan is not providing repair parts for the CVT therefore, independent shops can not repair the tramsmission but should be able to advise you on what to do.
I thought that Nissan had extended the warranty on the transmission to 10 yrs or 120K but it may be 130k.
