Honestly, for a car that only runs about 50K in 4 years, I'm feeling quite bitter about the reliability of the CVT gearbox.
I think we should do a petition, many bros here have similar issue and had to pay such a big sum of money to fix a substandard nissan product. This is not right.

TCM recommended me to go to Toa Payoh TCM Branch Workshop for further diagnosis and obtain quotation from them. The reason is that only Toa Payoh has the transmission experts in their workshop to give me more professional advice.
Generally, according to the service adviser from the TCM service centre I went to, they recommend replacement of the gearbox.

Dats y 1 of è salesman advise his customers to go for 4AT than CVT when buyin cars though the latter gives a smoother gear shift.

Yap, 4AT, pickup is good as well as for overtaking on expressway. :smile:
