2009 Cube Krom 61,500 miles purchased used at 13,000 miles. I do not believe the car was ever used to tow large loads or on rough roads.
Standard service is to inspect the CVT fluid at regular intervals, which was done at a dealer. As a premium service it recommends flushing the CVT at 30000 and 60000 miles.
I asked the dealer if I needed to flush my CVT. They said they did not recommend it unless I had been doing it regularly as it might cause the CVT to start slipping. I do not know if the CVT was flushed at 30000 as that was a premium service. If I remember right, she said something about bonding agents in newer CVT fluid could cause a problem.
Should I risk it, and against the dealer's advice, have the CVT flushed?
I did not take the car to the same dealer over the years, would my vehicle service be stored in the Nissan computer system so I could find out if it were flushed at 30000?
From the 2009 maintenance schedule https://www.nissanusa.com/pdf/techpubs/2009/2009_N_SMG.pdf
Standard: ❏ Inspect the following: Automatic transmission/CVT fluid
Note: Replace (not just inspect) oil/fluid if towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads
I do not believe that note applies to my car, which does not have a trailer hitch and is not suited for driving on a rough road.
Premium: Optional: flush automatic transmission/CVT7 (flush with ATF/CVT Fluid)
Drain and fill, don't flush.
Never flush. Drain and refill.
60k first flush you’ll be fine as long as your not having issues with it already. Just Drain and fill using Nissan ns-2 cvt fluid
