Car Forum / Nissan / Nissan Cars / May 2008How durable and lasting is the Rogue CVT?
I am looking at the Rogue and wonder how durable and failure free an owner can expect the CVT transmission to be? Is it really a rubber belt? If so, will it last or will it have to be replaced under 100K miles. Thanks for any information. >I am looking at the Rogue and wonder how durable and failure free an owner >can expect the CVT transmission to be? Is it really a rubber belt?

Considering that Nissan only sarted selling the Rogue in the Fall of 2007, I doubt you're going to get any answers based on actual experience. However, you may want to look up the Altima since it also uses the CVT tranny. Furthermore, if you think that the CVT "belt" tranny is especially unique to the Rogue, think again. Many other manufacturers also use it. http://www.vibratesoftware.com/html_help/html/Diagnosis/Reference/CVT_Transmissi ons.htm If you're concerned about thhe Rogue at all, frankly I don't think it should be about the transmission.

It's made from lots of STEEL segments with STEEL bands holding them together. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABaJidk9SJA >Considering that Nissan only sarted selling the Rogue in the Fall of 2007, I >doubt [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] >JK >  SignaturePeter Hill Spamtrap reply domain as per NNTP-Posting-Host in header Can of worms - what every fisherman wants.

CVT technology has been around for decades, and has been much more reliable that standard transmission technology. It has just not been economically viable for mass production, owing to a higher cost of construction, until the technology had been developed to a more bottom-line friendliness.

It's been used in other Nissan vehicles for several years and has been used successfully for two years by Chrysler in the Caliper, Compass, Patriot lines. |
