How we diagnose your Nissan
We scan engine, CVT, ABS and body modules, read the CVT temperature and pressure data during a road test, and smoke-test the EVAP system when needed. You see the results before we recommend a repair.
Keeping a Nissan CVT healthy in South Florida
Heat is the main enemy of a CVT. Stop-and-go traffic on I-95 and US-1 with the A/C running keeps the fluid hot. We recommend a CVT fluid service with Nissan-spec NS-2 or NS-3 fluid at the interval in your manual, sooner for severe use, and we check the CVT cooler and the radiator so the transmission stays at a safe temperature.
