worth a look and explains what happens if you cowboy this car That said I have had 4 CVT Maximas with no issues. I would make sure you get the pleated filter changed .. The dealers don't want to do it though

Could you elaborate on the pleated filter? That is the air filter is it. If so why the fuss from the dealer?
Very curious about this.
thank you!

He's talking about the CVT pleated filter not an air filter, Nissan added auxiliary pleated CVT oil filters to CVT models starting 2012

The video above does show the CVT fluid filter we are talking about.. Small and round in its own housing.
