| Hey, Scotty There's any downside of putting Way too Big CVT Cooler aside from receiving Good Side of installing the Cooler in terms of increasing Lifespan of CVT? My friend is have a 2022 Honda Civic Sedan 1.5L Turbo CVT that she bought Brand New on April 2022 and she's thinking to putting Big 18 Wheeler-rated Transmission Cooler on her Civic Sedan Turbo CVT to make it last as long as possible before it's finally Breaking Down for Good Thank You | |||||
| $30k for a 2024 SUV. Third row seat mandatory | 15Relevance | 3 years ago | whatthirdrowsuv | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hi everybody Im freaking out about getting a new car I think Ill end up making a first monthly payment on the loan from the bank before getting the car. I started out looking at Honda/Toyotas SUV and got set on Highlanders. It didnt even dawn on me I have 3 kids and that they deserve more that one row. When you look up Highlanders year by year theres always something to make me second guess buying one. I posted some of the bad reviews below thats just 2022 Highlander. 2018 and every other year has its own set of problems. Im thinking I should rethink my sea ... | |||||
| Changing transmission fluid in Nissan CVT | 15Relevance | 1 year ago | Fotozman | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I have a 2021 Nissan Murano 2WD with 75,000 miles. I saw one of your videos where you said not to change the fluid in a transmission if it is not slipping, because the new fluid can cause slippage. My transmission seems to be working fine, but multiple auto mechanics and a transmission specialist have told me I need to change the fluid and filters in my CVT for $400-$450 due to the mileage. What is your recommendation whether I should change the CVT fluid or not if the CVT seems to be working fine. Thank you for your guidance in advance. | |||||
| Answer to: 2020 Honda Civic’s Cvt | 20Relevance | 4 years ago | Dan | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Not really, they seem to be better than Nissan but worse than Toyotas - but still much worse than a regular auto. And even Toyota is having MAJOR issues with theirs, for example these two brand new cars stuttering: CVT transmissions are not good in general, 150k miles is doable, but in stop and go driving much less. Not as far as I know. Having driven a Toyota launch gear CVT, it's disappointing - felt like an auto that's going out and has a slow 1-2 shift. I agree with @kp, I wouldn't buy one either. | |||||
| Answer to: What do you think of a 2017 2.0 I4 Honda Civic w/ CVT? | 19Relevance | 5 years ago | Whatchamacallit | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| See below on CVT: Also, the Honda Civic engine you mention 2.0L naturally aspirated I4 (K20C2) is based on Honda’s K-series engine and is true and tried. That engine is also a unicorn these days in that the engine is only port injection (there is no GDI) - which is ideal. I would take that Civic as long as an independent, honest mechanic like a Scotty thoroughly checks it out, hooks up his fancy scan tool, road tests, and analyzes all the data and says it is OK. Also, for that CVT change the fluid every 30,000 miles or what the owner’s manual says (which ... | |||||
| Answer to: Should I buy a 2019 Accord with CVT? | 19Relevance | 2 years ago | Chuck Tobias | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Scotty has said that late-model Toyota and Honda CVTs are OK, though they still will likely not last as long as a well-designed conventional transmission. You will want to change CVT fluid regularly for best service life. If you research problems with that model you'll see that CVT issues are not particularly common: However if it has the 1.5L turbo engine you should be aware of potential oil dilution problems, especially in a colder climate: As far as whether that car is a good deal or not, most of us here have no idea what the Canadia ... | |||||

| ... Dry PowerShift) Here’s a description of the common issues with these in Honda’s own words, (also available on NHTSA’s website on the 2017 Honda HRV under the “Manufacturer Communications” section) Honda has put out multiple service bulletins and yet, as far as I see - the issues with very premature wear or as Honda calls it “early deterioration” are still common. There have been many complaints on this forum about the Civic’s CVT, and as far as the available information, it’s a similar unit to the ones installed on the HRV. Looking online, Honda ... | |||||

| Answer to: Is CVT fluid the same as differential fluid? | 15Relevance | 3 years ago | Dad2LM2 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| No. Some manual transmissions use a gear oil similar to diff fluid. But CVT fluid is much different. Putting gear oil in the CVT will make it nonfunctional, and putting CVT fluid in the diff will cause rapid wear. Welcome new member! | |||||

| When my interpretation of Scotty's videos is correct, he is not a friend of the CVT systems, even not from those of Subaru. I found a linked site with complaints/issues related to their CVT's: "https://www.thedrive.com/car-warranty/35585/subaru-cvt-problems". My suggestion: let her (the girl) learn to stirr a manual tranny... 😎 | |||||
| Nissan CVT judder and DTC P17F1 | 15Relevance | 4 years ago | clay2000nc | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I have a 2015 Nissan Murano SL FWD with 85K miles. Using my Blue Driver I get a P17F1 code for the transmission (CVT). Nissan said it's a fatal code but the vehicle does not have any of the typical symptoms of the CVT's pending death. Only thing I've ever noticed (for years) is when going up a incline slowly there will be a slight shutter at 20mph but goes way as I increase speed. If I accelerate a bit faster I feel nothing. The CVT has never been serviced so my question is: should I do any maintenance at this point? Should I do a drain and fill? If yes, should I add an anti slip additive during the process? Thanks! | |||||
| How does seat base inclination angle affect driver comfort? | 19Relevance | 5 years ago | etre2244 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Background idea: Hello. I have noticed that the only car seats I feel somewhat comfortable in are Honda seats. I feel that this is because the angle of the surface of the seat base is is greater than zero degrees; that is, because the part under your knees is higher than the part under your butt. Question to forum: what is your observation, knowledge, or experience with respect to this question? Restated in objective form, my question is: do different car manufacturers tend to use front seats with specific seat base inclination angles with respect to the h ... | |||||
| Answer to: 2021 Toyota RAV4 vs 2021 Honda CRV - entry models | 18Relevance | 6 years ago | Kaizen | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| I've driven both the RAV4 and CRV regularly for the past 5 years. Specifically the 2015 models. The RAV4 feels sportier and more fun, probably because of the transmission. The RAV4 has about 50K. The CRV feels more "luxurious" for lack of a better term. The CRV has about 90K, and the CVT is still strong. It's weird, but has worked well. My first time using a CVT. TMK, the quality of the CVT seems to be up to par. IMHO, it's whether or not you like how it shifts. In theory, CVT's seem simpler to me. IMHO, I don't think you can go wrong with either one (assuming you get naturally aspirated), even with the CVT. I recommend test driving both to get a feel for both. Even though they are in the same category, they drive significantly differently. See which one you like the feel for better. I personally like the CRV for longer free road trips. And RAV4 for curvy and winding roads. | |||||

| ... car!. Nissan 4 times and once Honda. Here my impression: I had Nissan and out the winter, amazing until they change to CVT garbage! They are not efficient in GAS as Toyota or Honda. The AC always dies after 5Y as Mitsubishi, and they are not efficient. Also, Nissan suffers with the winter and gets too much rust after 5Y. I changed my 2011 Sienna 3.5L for a 2012 Murano and I didn't like it, the Gas consumption was so high like my old FJ Cruiser but feeling lazy, I changed after 6 months to my current Venza 4Cyl and I enjoy it better.
