To those of you wondering why we're a replacement society and nobody bothers to fix/rebuild things anymore, this is why right here. Imagine if this was your car and you brought it to the shop. It's your only car, you're making payments on it, and you have to get to work. You wouldn't be very happy to have to wait 6 months to get it repaired, would you? This is why most shops would quote you an engine, whether it "needs" one or not.

Ah yes, the Renault dipstick trick. I worked with a fleet of Renault minibuses with a two-foot long dipstick made entirely of plastic which followed a winding route into the sump. Because we had to check the oil every day, the bottom nine inches or so regularly snapped off and vanished into the sump. Some of those buses must still have four or five broken dipsticks floating about in the sump....

Went back and swapped it for another one. Went home and found that the replacement was also for the driver's side. Went back to the dealer, who was starting to think I was crazy. This time the dealer ordered one directly from the Nissan central parts warehouse. It was also incorrect. The main parts warehouse then pulled and checked their entire inventory. all were wrong. Someone in japan had packaged the switch for a right hand drive vehicle with the part number for a left hand drive Z. Nissan overnight air freighted the correct part directly to my home. I always wonder how much trouble the poor guy back in Japan got into.

Found out on Nissan CVT Internet Form: that when you place Nissan CVT in drive position, it should not do anything, until throttle up engagement... !! If CVT is placed in drive position and gets a jerk or a clunk, it needs to be serviced... The Car Wizzard has a previous video on complete & comprehensive maintenance of a Nissan CVT... !!

I had one. Wizard, you are right on. I got 155k of trouble free miles from mine.. less the CVT that crapped out at 87k.

I once bought a '72 Marquis that was dead. Turns out the oil pump had something in it which locked it up. The engine was completely unharmed because the shear pin for the oil pump drive had broken and stopped the distributor's rotor. Replaced the oil pump and shear pin and I had a good running car.

runs really nice, congratulations on getting it working again.

Late to finding your channel and I love it! I bought two used 2012 jukes (at 40K miles) for each of my kids. We love them. Of course the cvt is changed as I preach every 40k. I miss driving their jukes since they have moved out. These cars are great for all kinds of weather driving. The turbo really makes it extra fun zipping around. The jukes now have over 120k on each of them and my kids still love them. I'm the Nissan "Z" driver in the family. :)

Back in the early 1970s a college classmate suffered a similar catastrophic engine failure. Her parents had gifted her a Mustang II at her high school graduation and at just over 2,000 miles (and on an interstate) the engine bit the big one. Needless to say, my classmate had to walk several miles to a pay phone (Yes Karen, there was a day when cell phones were not a thing.) to call her Dad for help. Dad, and a wrecker arrived a couple of hours later, and the Mustang was towed to the originating Ford dealership. Long story short, after a complete engine tear down, an aluminum clip, similar to the one visible in your shirt pocket, was found in the oil pump. How did it get there? Apparently at the factory. Thankfully the Ford dealership in her hometown did not make excuses or expect her parents to come off the hip for even more money and replaced the engine on their dime. My classmate drove that car for almost twenty years before she traded it for a Ford F-250 which she drives to this day.

This engine has found its way on many cars in Europe including Mercedes A class, Gla and others. Also, Dacia. Crazy to think that a Mercedes shares engines with a Dacia

If you add one more cylinder to the KR15DDT, you get KR20DDET currently sold as the "VC Turbo" optional engine in the Nissan Altima midsize sedan.

Think what was happening was they were sourcing you the 1.6 petrol engine bearings

Hi, I bought a new bolt(w/magnet) for my '08 Acura TL oil pan . I took it out of the package and somehow the staple from the bolt package ended up on the magnet of the bolt which I found a year later. Luckily after a year I found the washer on the next oil change.

Wizard, my cube (and your cube, if you still have one) has the older, slower cousin to this engine, the MR18DE. And I've learned this week that some vital parts are permanently out of stock for that engine. So your story does not surprise me. I discovered a coolant leak on my cube's engine this week, and I believe it's coming from the water outlet at the back of the engine. Probably just the gasket going out. Thankfully the gasket still exists and is still listed at $3 in the Nissan parts catalog online, but if by some chance I find the water outlet is damaged when I get in there to change the gasket, my only option is to source one from a junkyard. It's not bad, sourcing spares from junkyards, but it does make a man think how much longer he might get to enjoy his car.

This was great to see. Was hoping to see an update

I had a guy from my high school class that had a 1970 Boss 302 Mustang. He installed the intake manifold package for the inline 4 barrel carburetor. As they installed it they found one manifold bolt missing. They found it on the first roadtest. Stuck in a piston.

I had a Nissan Juke junk with cvt, I had no issues even with the cvt. But, at 139000 my catalytic converter failed and they said that it damaged the engine.

Great mini series. Just saying Renault engines are normally pretty good. They seem to hold up well. These are used in mercedes too. I bet it's really good on fuel as petrol/gas/essence is expensive in France

The multi turn stop valve on my guest bath toilet would never shut the water off. When I put a new quarter turn valve on, I took the old valve apart to see what the problem was. There was a screw, identical to the screw that held the handle on, inside the valve body. I'm guessing it came that way from the factory.

There's starting to be an After market for these cars.. There's 2 different Tuning software's that work really well, ECTek, and UpRev.. Both can turn a stock juke into 250/300 HP beast depending on Bolt ons and Cat back..

I stopped recommending Nissan years ago, and hated doing it. I loved the company since it was Datsun here! Honda is right behind them. My oldest son and I prefer 2002 back for most of our projects in general. We like a few all through newer years, but we're very careful. Always good info.

I think a lot depends on how you drive and especially how you service modern Nissans. I have a cube at 182,000 miles that's just now suffering its first mechanical problem with visible coolant loss around the water outlet. I suspect the $3 fiber gasket has finally let go. I'll pay to have it replaced later this week, probably put the $20 upper thermostat in there while it's apart because why not, and put it back in service. Our last car before this was a 2004 Sentra. Great little car with a slightly different 1.8. You can definitely see the Renault influence in the engines that started going in Nissan's smaller cars in the 2007-up years, but they're not necessarily bad engines if they get serviced regularly.

Wizard, if you want that turbo to survive, get an after market turbo oil supply tube. Either Mba, of Fast Religion males one that will live the life of the motor and won't suffer from heat shrink and close off and starve off the oil supply to the turbo. Plus, I would add a trans cooler and beehive to it a d for sure do a trans service every 30k. It'll live well passed 200k if you do this and oil changes every 3k miles using only quality oil. Plus on the trans service only use Nissan branded CVT fluid.

My local Nissan dealer is on the same page as you with servicing the cvt. They actually recommend to service it every 30, 000 miles. I wonder if they watch your videos.

Thank the Wizards 👍 Shoe🇺🇸

From memory in Australia the Juke was UK built for Australia and for RHD markets we got a 1.2 Turbo manual base and the auto base initially had a Nissan NA 1.6 with the CVT only then upper spec got the 1.6 with a turbo in man/CVT?

you would probably get the bearing in the uk they are built in the uk well we build jukes over here anyway not sure about us market. there is thousands of these 1.6 jukes over here so im sure parts would be readily available.

A lot of owners switch out the transmission “beehive” cooler from the 08-13 Rogue. This lets you add a better transmission fin cooler that can be mounted in front of the radiator. And I think Nissans drain/fill service schedule is every 60k miles. I do mine 30-40k since these CVTs are notorious. By the way, the manual Nismo/Nismo RS version is the way to go.

They get really sludge up. They need the oil to be fully synthetic (they were putting in semi synthetic at the start) and be changed every 3000 miles. The turbos do okay with failure at around the 150k area. If you change the oil every 3,000 it will help prolong life. Nissan doesn't really support the motor anymore. There are a lot of tech line cases with replacing the long block. There was a recall early on to replace everything associated with the timing chains.

My Mercedes B class also has a CVT transmission (it's the only model that had one), and the transmission service at the dealer is made every 60.000 KM (37.500 miles). Maybe even 50K is too much

Just like with a 2014 Suzuki Vitara I had, was equipped with a 2.4 Gasoline engine and to my knowledge there was a 1.9 DSL(which was also sourced from Renault) version in other countries, but we didn't get the DSL version here in the PH.

The US only ever got one engine for the Juke, the 1.6T. That said, there was a revision of the engine design for the 2015 model year, and those incorrect bearings are probably for that version.

20 years old? The las Renault vehicles in the USA were sold in 1987...a few Renaults survived the AMC merger (e.g. Renault Premier) and soldiered on into the 1990's. The last Renault part I'm aware of that Chrysler used is the Premier transaxle which was used in the first generation Chrysler LH cars. That's why they're front wheel drive but have longitudinal engine mounting (the way front wheel drive should be!)

I think we had a lemon. 5 transmissions ( all with the same failure ) turbo, cooling fans and relays, ac compressor, timing chain issue and a few other odd things, all before 100k miles.

CVT might fail without regular servicing? I'd say it will fail without regular servicing.

I love my juke nismo rs. To the people that bash on the cvt either dont own one or dont keep up with maintenance. Ive had nothing but goodluck on mine just drove it on a 3146 mile trip with no issues.
