Is the Nissan Murano’s CVT transmission really as bad as people say?
Car enthusiasts and owners of Nissan vehicles like the Murano have been hotly debating the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) in Nissan vehicles. It has been called a ticking time bomb by some, and a holy grail by others. The problems come from reported previous Nissan models, but the company says it has improved greatly in recent years. But as with all gearboxes, how well the vehicle is driven, maintained, as well as climate can influence CVT longevity. The result is conflicting anecdotes and opinions, making it hard for potential buyers to tell fact from fiction. In this question we try to find out from real world experiences and opinions from experts about the Murano CVT reliability in newer models.
I've had my 2018 Murano now for over 100k miles and the CVT has been smooth sailing. Other than that, just keep up with the fluid changes every 60k miles, and don’t drive it like you’re in NASCAR. The horror stories you hear about the old ones are way better than these newer CVTs.
