nissan & suzuki cvts havent had much mileage in our country. we probably wont know when theyll conk out. give it a few years before owners start asking about these cvts: "high rpms" and "slippage" symptoms..

would you buy a cvt sylphy? i know you and I wouldn't.

i'm not putting suspicion on the post-er.
i'm commenting on what one might download from the internet, thinking it is "Bible-true".

Agree on this... and it’s up to us to decide whether to believe, to follow or the other way around...

Good point!

Who makes the CVT tranny for Subaru, Honda, Mitsubishi, and Toyota? How are they in terms of reliability against the CVT used by Nissan?

I have no issues with Subaru’s CVT tranny. I have not heard of any CVT-related concerns on the newer Subie vehicles.

How many local Lancer EX and ASX vehicles had their CVTs fail? Nissan used CVT on their previous gen Xtrail, were there failures also?

i used to drive a 2003 cedia with cvt, with 100K on the odometer.
"it drove fine."
but the car gargled gas. i reluctantly let it go.
