That was my first reaction, but wife won't trust CVT now

I wanted to make it another year on this car, see if the car market dropped. I think we are going to solicit offers and if they are 11,000 or more, sell and just have 2 cars (a 2015 and a 2017, so we could be in this situation again). ** Edited by WestyHokie at 10/14/2025, 9:14:03 PM

Gearheads: It was NOT transfer case, was transmission - what do now?

Trade it in and don't say a darn thing about the transmission issue.
GSOHokie01 • 10/14/25 09:18 PM ET
Trade it in, the dealership should have knowledge of any inherent problems

85k miles is nothing. If the car is otherwise nice, I think...

Is this at the dealer, or an independent mechanic?
EDGEMAN • 10/14/25 06:04 PM ET
Yes, independent shop, will ask when they open, thanks **
WestyHokie • 10/14/25 08:26 PM ET
If at the dealer, ask what they would give you as a trade in today.**
EDGEMAN • 10/14/25 06:05 PM ET
Holy crap, I miss my '71 Nova**

Maybe find a transmission shop and have it repaired. Double A, MCO.**

Continuously Very Troublesome**

Especially Nissan CVTs**
EDGEMAN • 10/14/25 06:29 PM ET
Assuming the vehicle is paid off (not purchased recently) I would trade it.
MP4VT2004 • 10/14/25 04:28 PM ET
Me, either... paid off years ago **
