  • Let’s check out how a CVT transmission vehicle drives at low speeds & higher speeds. It does feel a bit different than your traditional transmission. Let me know what you about the CVT and would you want one on your vehicle?!

All I've been hearing is how much crap they are but then I saw a video where basically you just have to replace the filter and fluids about every 30-50k and you should be good. It might be frequent but it's better than replacing the transmission itself. Also I've seen how people drive with a heavy foot constantly where they stomp on the gas. I don't like the fact of not knowing how the previous owner drove their car but hopefully the transmission can last me a little bit if I take care of it mechanically.

    Except here's the kicker... What you just showed isn't how a CVT was designed to behave! Original CVTs, many years ago, did not simulate gear shifts. OG CVTs would hold RPMs at the higher range and just stay there. Then, the modern customer complained about how awkward and unnatural it felt. Now CVTs simulate gear shifts, completely defeating the point of a CVT! 🙃

    CVT fake shifts? ohhh hell no.
    if you ever got to ride a CVT Scooter that's what it should feel like.
    a CVT works by setting engine to run at a "constant" rpm usually it sets the rpm on the rpm of which it makes the max power when you floor it or max torque if you're on the throttle but not flooring it.
    then the transmission variates the ratio to give it's optimal performance / economy/ etc.
    this happens while you're accelerating, going up hill, cruising, or slowing down.
    Fake Shifts defeats the purpose of a CVT.
    maybe it does that to make it feel like a Regular A/T, because it may sound like it's broken for untrained ears.

      You're probably proving my theory. It's my belief that the overwhelming majority of all CVT failures are operator error. Having lived in an upstairs loft right next to the stoplights, I noticed that most people seem to think they're in a drag race when the light turns green. So if your Nissan CVTs aren't giving you any problems, I'm guessing it because you use gradual acceleration rather than those jackasses that put the pedal to the floor every time the light turns green. I gave my daughter the same advice when she bought her Rouge three years ago. She hasn't had a problem yet either.

    Earlier iterations of CVTs had the uniform revving and lack of perceptible "gear changes" that made them feel like a 1-speed with infinite ratios.
    Modern CVTs however definitely mimic the shift patterns of traditional automatics, simply to accommodate the feedback car brands received over the years from drivers.

    I hate them. I like the idea but they have no place in ice engines. They burn up too easily and they’re way too difficult to diagnose when they begin to fail. You really won’t know it’s going out until it’s way too late. Conventional automatics and more so manuals are very easy to purchase second hand because it’s usually pretty obvious when they have a problem. Not so for cvts. Plus a cvt makes every vehicle they’re in feel sluggish and believe it or not they just follow a number of preset gear ranges. It’s not like the computer is smart enough to make micro adjustments like most people think. It allows for a lot more gear ranges with less transmission complexity at the cost of durability and desirability among people who like a car for something more than a commute to work.

    • @Jorge-dw8pb

      This is true. All the benefits of a CVT are not really taken advantage of by car makers. However, a Formula 1 racing team created an extremely effective CVT and it was banned the second time they tested it. It was far superior to traditional automatics. But then again, that is formula 1, no car manufacturer is going to spend the time and money to create a good cvt.

Now you have a transmission that is pretending to be a regular transmission so it's not as efficient, and you also have a transmission that's much more unreliable than a regular transmission.

    In the coming days all will change for CVT automatic,,, these words are coming for a Die Hard Manual Gear Driver,, as in city Bumper to Bumper traffic the gear cars have lost its glory and give us more leg pain peddling the clutch and hand pain by shifting gear from 1st to 2nd nowadays with 20k kms we need to change the gearbox due to constant gear changes n applying the clutch,,so i my self converted to CVT automatic car only if you are in Rural side or drive in high ways you can opt for gear vehicles

    False presentation...CVT holds constant RPM.

    😐 keep revving it up to 5000 rpms and your cvt will break like a rubber band. Lol. You need to keep it below 3000 rpms.
