Hi All, it is with sad news that i just got the call no nissan owner wants to get, that their child has a going bad CVT. :-( Only had the car a year and only put on 13k miles, only at 49,454 now. Nissan engineers determined that pressures were bad and they will be replacing my cvt under warranty. So Kenny if you dont see me this weekend thats why :-(

I was always afraid of being added to this list. But to be honest i love my maxima, and this is not deterring me from keeping it after the cvt replacement. Ill keep you all posted with the technical data. Good news is i got the p0101 code fixed and they updated my ecu last week. Spoiler comes n today and looking forward to getting her back.

 

Going ahead and getting my fluid change at 50K. Keep us updated.

 

Dude, totally bummed she is down but at least it's covered under warranty! Makes everyone wonder lol...I've got 75K on Maxine...wondering when I should have it changed?

 

Drove it too hard?

 

I've got 135k miles on my 09 with full throttle runs every day.
I change the fluid every 30k and I haven't had any problems yet.
I think it is unluck of the draw on longevity.

 

Agreed. While I don't have many miles yet on mine I pound the crap out of it every time I drive it and have zero issues with anything on that car. I feel for you guys hearing about all these problems you encounter. My Z28 is the same way zero issues 97k on it gets its *** handed to it every time I drive it. My integra has 230k and its got virtually no issues other than needing a clutch, not the cars fault. My boys TL is the same way no issues way over 100 on his. And they're known for tranny issues. End of the day it's as previously stated, the unluck of the draw.
