My younger sis has a 2017 Impreza sedan with a CVT. It has 66k miles. She said the transmission felt like it was slipping and was noisy while driving home from work night. She’s taking it to a dealer today, I’ll keep this updated.
Nissan CVTs are very different from Subaru CVTs.I live near a Nissan dealer and probably every couple of weeks I see a relatively new Nissan being towed into the dealer. No idea if it is because of the CVT but it makes me VERY suspicious!
CVTs...one of those ideas that sounds good on paper but doesn't seem to be reliable, doesn't really improve mpg, decreases performance and makes drivability worse. When are manufactures going to admit that little experiment didn't really work out?
The CVT is here to stay until electric powertrains that don't need excessive gear reduction become the norm.CVTs...one of those ideas that sounds good on paper but doesn't seem to be reliable, doesn't really improve mpg, decreases performance and makes drivability worse.
