CVTs enter the chat, but it's mostly to ask when they'll be replaced so you can use them again.
(I don't remember details, but we decided to specifically avoid cars with CVTs because of reliability issues. Sure enough, the only person I know with a CVT is having belt slipping issues. Seems like certain manufacturers were switching back to dual clutch arrangements)
- chrisandchris 3y agoDrove a Suvaru with CVT for 100k km. Never had any issue. Never heard of anyone having issues with CVT (from Subaru).
- cryptonector 3y agoMy understanding is that the Nissan CVTs weren't outfitted with a large enough radiator, and that the resulting overheating is what tended to kill them. I don't think there's anything inherent about their design besides the insufficiently large radiator that would cause failures more frequently than non-CVTs.
