While the car is running after you put the fluid in shift thru all gears and pause for like 5 sec b4 u shift from gear to gear. Go from park all the way down even in over drive then slowly back up to park

Cvt dont change gear. Theres no gear on a cvt transmission. It’s simply adjusting the size of the pullys. Changing the oil will definitely help with the lubrication

The Allen bolt tube is the transmission fluid level keep adding till it over flows.

Thank you for the Awesome post, Question is the Allen Bolt prevent Over-Flow thus the removing of the 19mm bolt after fill????

@NissanNut74

2 ай бұрын

It allows for the correct amount. Here is the best steps: remove drain plug, remove tube "allen bolt", drain fluid. reinstall tube and plug. Add oil. remove drain plug, start engine let warm up. Then reinstall plug. You can fill from bottom or dipstick.

Ive seen other videos to make sure how to do it. I’ve seen other videos not tighten the drain plug all the way to let it drain the new oil. If it waterfalls the new oil, that means it’s full enough?

@NissanNut74

Жыл бұрын

Correct.

Unfortunately my cvt shat the bed at 130k. Was hoping cvt fluid change would fix the issue but it did not. Surprised i made it home with how bad it jitters and slips, there were times when im at a stop light and the car would just not move and i have to restart my car several times. Also i heard some noises probably from the cvt while i was going back. I don’t hear anymore after the fluid change tho. As i was doing my fluid change i notice about 5 mm shards and sprinkles not sure if thats normal but i assume not. Someone told me to try and do a flush and filter change as it's already broken and might as well go all out as it won't really matter if it does get worse. I've also been told it might take some driving before anything changes.

There is no traditional dipstick. Its just a plug. There is no way to calculate what is inside.

I’m a little confused. So I should take off the main drain plug and unlossen the smaller drain plug to drain all the old fluid.. Then I should tighten the smaller drain plug. Then I go to the top and take off the dip stick. Add the 3 quarts fluid using the funnel. Then check under the car and when I see it slowly dripping that means it full Then I put the dip stick back in? Is that everything?
