canthai55 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 Thinking about upgrading our Teana to a new 2.5 Navi. Any problems or issues with these ? Never owned one, never drove one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebastion Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 They just keep the car in a optimal rev range if you drive it normally. Can be off putting for someone new to them. They are smoother compared to the conventional automatic gearbox. Go test drive it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Curious Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I've got one. 30,000 km's on the clock now. No problems with the Nissan at all. Go for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GARYZX6R Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Had one and hated it . Maybe better with the bigger Tena engine. Would have to test drive before spending out a million plus.. Yes it was a Nissan too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavisH Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Larger engines should be better as you dont need to floor it to get it going a decent speed. Its what i hate most about the eco cars but they do give decent fuel economy. Or try mazda 3 that uses a 6 speed auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMHO Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The Jatco CVT's in Nissan's are very reliable and pretty much bullet proof. In fact, most CVT's are - the only exceptions being Honda's, which got themselves a bad reputation for reliability in Jazz/City models (and were swiftly replaced wit torque converters), and Mitsubishi's one used in the 2000-2007 Lancer, which was lethargic, too rev happy, and just plain weird to drive.
