Thanks for the video. I just did this job on my sisters 2007 Nissan, would not have done it if it was not for your video. Like I said before, I got the same codes and the transmission went into limp mode, Took it to a shop and they could not figure it out and sent us to a transmission shop, they too did not know what the problem was as they are new to CVT, but curiously the shop I had just come from sent me to them with a paper copy of the Nissan bulletin stating that the Valve body should be replaced with those codes and symptoms. But the Trans shop said they think it is an electrical issue not a transmission issue after keeping it overnight and said we should take it to an electrical shop. So I said FK it, Studied the service bulletin and found your video and decided to try it out. The refurbished assembly I found on ebay was like $150 and it already had all the parts, Rods/spring/sensor etc so I did not have to move anything from the old CVT assembly to the new one. Your video saved me from screwing things up primary with the info on what bolts to remove to get the unit out (I would have been pulling all kinds of bolts out and made a mess) and how to use the Allen wrench to hold the rod in position while installing. The 2 most helpful points. I also did not need to remove the electrical bracket at all. My fluid looked like motor oil and stunk the whole garage up, it was pretty burnt (luckily it looks like no damage to the rest of the CVT). Got that all put back in no problem. But to keep this problem from coming back in the future I also installed an external cooler (small radiator) to keep the fluid temp from going into meltdown again. I have been driving the car around town the last couple days to see if any issues come up before taking it on the longer commute to work (leaks/error codes - check engine light/ trans acting weird etc). error codes were erased and no code has returned as of yet and the trans seems to be functioning like a new car at this point. A day of work and maybe $300 total in parts and fluid. I can not imagine what a shop would have charged me to do the same job including parts considering I also installed a new block cooler with bypass to the new external cooler. I will start driving it to work tonight and report back in a week or two. Thanks again for the video and the replies to some of my questions, you were a huge help.

@@chinogodinez Pretty easy to install. I took out the top bolts that hold the radiator to the frame so I could lay it back a bit to give me room to work. Just pick the spot on the front of your existing radiator that you think eill get the best air flow and leaves a little room to rout your hoses for it and then you just mount by putting plastic stick like zip tie kind of things through/between the fins of the cooler and radiator. Easy. you will also need to replace the existing block mounted cooler with one that has the ports to allow the fluid to flow to the external cooler. as for the fluid, I just put the recomended ammount and idled the engine for a while through all gears then just checked the fluid level and added a little at a time till id was at proper lvl, I think it only took like an extra half qt. also check it daily for a couple days as the air works its way out and to watch for any leaks from any of the connections. To be safe I doubled up hose clamps on all the connections. so far no leaks and no issues, but the car has been mostly driven in the early morning or evening, no long distance drives in the hottest part of the day to really test the system out in the conditions it failed at.

Here is my experience: I purchased a 2015 Nissan Murano new in July 2015. We had transmission issues starting week 1! Hesitation and then over acceleration were addressed with multiple software tweaks but never corrected the issue. My CVT transmission failed and was replaced under warranty by Nissan in June 2019 at 52,000 miles. Today 11-29-21, at 62,100 miles, my transmission failed again due to the transmission oil/cooler/radiator assembly failing to cause the cooling fluid and the transmission fluid to mix, resulting in having to replace the Transmission, Radiator, and associated assemblies for a cost to me of approximately $6,700! Based on my research, this is a known issue with Nissan CVTs but was only partially addressed in the Class Action lawsuit because individual owners had to personally sue Nissan and their vehicle models and years were the only ones included in the extended warranty. How a judge does not include all Nissan vehicles with the CVT is beyond me especially when my dealership was replacing three a week when my 2015 Murano's CVT was replaced. All my service was completed at the dealership and we never prevent any work from being done when required. The only upside is Nissan is paying for 80% of the repair but I am still paying out of pocket on something I believe should be fully covered. If I had an Altima with the same issue it would be covered under the class action suit extended warranty coverage but the same CVT with known issues in another Nissan model is not covered!

P0845 is a circuit code though, not a performance code. I have fixed these by changing the wiring harness bolted to the valve body for the solenoids. The wire was broken right where it went to the solenoid connector and if you pull it slightly it will come apart because its just held there by the insulation. Never listen to anything nissan says about CVT's. Their fix for everything is to replace the cvt.

Gr8 vid, I am one of the lucky ones, I don’t have a CVT. I have a older 2001 Nissan Maxima, 203k miles It did have P0744 code. And shifting and driving. Badly, almost impossible to drive. Drained fluid, it came out black/brown, no metallic tint or metal shavings. About 1gal came out. I added a little over qts of ATF (valvoline max life synthetic ATF and 1 bottle of Lucus transmission fix). I also cleared the code Drove it 70 miles and the code came back but it was driving a lot better. Continued to drive it 300 miles later it was say 70% better, Shifting from 1->2 had some issues but all other shifts were smooth and mostly on time. 600 miles later it was even better 900 miles later it was almost back to normal. I cleared the code , and saw it was a little over full of ATF, so I pumped out some ATF to bring to right level. Check engine light hasn’t come back And it’s shifting consistently now, though the 1->2 shift sometimes happens a little over 3000 rpm. Only time will tell if this has resolved the issue. It is what it is, it’s old (19), high mileage car(203k) Living on lift support , runs smoothly now and shifting ok now as well. It leaks oil from rear mail seal that is tool costly to repair. It’s now my son’s first car. Hopefully he will get some years out of it. Maybe another 30-50k miles AT-205 and high mileage oil seem to help. I may drain ATF again sooner to get out more of the old fluid. A drain only gets out maybe 45% of ATF .

So sisters 2007 started acting up coming home from a couple hundred mile trip. Loud whine, speedometer stopped working and car was running in a lower gear and would not upshift. Took to a basic repair shop and they gave us a print out of that bulletin after doing basic diagnostics, told us codes were transmission related, We do have 2 of the codes listed. 840 and 845. They recommended a local transmission shop. We drove it to that shop (the car now running normally, weird) I have had it on short trips in town and it runs fine, but have not had it on the hwy, I thought it might be a PCM issue. The trans shop kept it for a day and told us they do not think it is the transmission but rather an electrical issue and recommended taking it to an electrical shop. What? They did admit they are new to CVT and do not quite understand them yet. But if the first shop found the bulletin saying if you have those codes then a valve body replacement is needed, why would a transmission shop ignore that and think it is not the valve body and think it is electrical issue? Do you think the shop is wrong? I did not notice the bulletin in our paperwork till after going back through it after watching your video. I offered the paperwork at the time to the trans shop but they did not seem to want it, just wrote down the codes. I plan on heading back over to the transmission shop later this week and ask them why they believe the issue is electrical and not a valve body issue. But just curious what you think. I will be looking for a different trans shop or maybe even the dealer. I am not really set up to do it myself being at an apartment complex. Also, is it common for the transmission to act up and then act normal with valve body issues?
@YourCarGuyDR
5 жыл бұрын
John Norris the car in this video started having the same symptoms that you described and did it intermittently for several months before it was brought to me for repair. Many people will look at the codes and assume that it is a wiring issue which is partially true as the wiring and sensors that are part of the valve body are what is causing the issue. When your car sets the codes the transmission goes into limp mode. This is when it feels like it is running in a lower gear. Many times after you shut it off and restart it the codes will clear and it will drive normally. If the codes are cleared it will drive normally until it sets the code again. Many transmission shops only focus on mechanical failures and don’t do anything with the electrical part of the transmission.

Yes. These are adaptive transmissions which means your computer takes into account your driving habits, fluid temperature, pressures, and everything going on inside your transmission and uses that info to dial in your shifting. When replacing any solenoids, sensors, valve bodies, rebuilds, ANYTHING in the transmission, you need to relearn the TCM so it can adjust for the new parts.

First great video, thanks so much for pretty thoroughly explaining the process! A few questions: 1) You mentioned a service bulletin was alerted for this problem P0845. Would Nissan then be obligated to correct this manufacturing issue? I’m not technically under warranty anymore. Bought it brand new in 2007, have 140,000 miles. I maintain it very good over the years. (I only noticed the problem because my engine then made high revving noise then my speed started fluctuating as I was driving as well as my rpm’s going down then way up. So I took it to a nearby shop and the code reader popped up this error issue. Fluids are good, no warning, no service engine soon light came on. Just driving normally per usual and then it started acting strange.) 2) You said we have to reset the code at the end. Do we physically do that or after the car is then put back together and runs for a “while” it will reset itself? 3) I understand it’s fairly simple for any well practiced mechanic just “messy” however how long does the process roughly take? I received 2 quotes and the labor hours were quite different. No offense but as an uninformed female I feel I get taken advantage of based on my lack of car knowledge. Thank you for your help and guidance! 😊👏🏼🤞🏼

Jessica Palmer lets run through your questions. 1 - A service bulletin is something that helps with repair instructions whether in or out of warranty. It is different than a recall that the manufacturer would have to pay for regardless of warranty. Nissan did extend the warranty on these transmissions I believe to 10 years or 100k miles. 2 - Resetting the code can be done with a scanner or many times can be cleared by disconnecting the battery for about 30 minutes. 3 - The average person should be able to do this in 2 hours or less. Any decent mechanic should be done in about 45 minutes.

Nana Osei this code can be caused by a wiring issue, however Nissan has identified that they have solenoids that are failing and thus issued the TSB (technical service bulletin) to replace the valve body with one that has been update. The update could mean that they have changed the design of a solenoid to improve function or reliability or it could even be that the solenoids are made by a different manufacturer with better quality controls.

While driving on the freeway it lost power it went from 60 mph to 40 mph, I made home but I notice that the vehicle wasn’t moving forward only backward, I put a scanner and read code P1777 and code P0845, I changed the stepper motor and after I changed the car now move for forward but not backward and here and then while driving it makes some sort of pull abd feel like it want to get stuck, so what do think my mechanic did wrong when he changed the stepper motor? I scanned again abd keep reading the same codes. Help please. Thank you

one other question. How do I find exactly what part I need for my nissan? Want to make sure I get the right part number. Google search for my make/model/year seems to turn up so many different part number control valve bodies. I have a 2007 Nissan sentra 2.0L. Is there a site you recommend to figure out exactly what part I need if I do decide to try and replace it myself? or maybe somewhere I can input my vin number and get a part number? I saw the part number on the paperwork you showed in the video and the paperwork mentioned 2007 sentra on the bulletin but was not sure if that part number was just for your specific car or mine as well. Subscribed by the way, Very good video, easy to see what is going on and very detailed instructions with no BS mixed in.

John Norris you do need to verify your transmission model number. There is a sticker inside the drivers door with the transmission model number on it. Many valve bodies cover several transmission models. Make sure when you are searching that your transmission is listed as one that the valve body fits.

@@YourCarGuyDR Hey, can I ask one more question/ get your opinion on something. I am looking at valve bodies on ebay and the ones I am seeing have a picture of the valve body with 2 sensors next to each other but only one cable plugging into one of the sensors. Then there is this note on the description “One oil pressure switch sensor is common to two oil pressure switch sensors” Is this true? Just curious why there are 2 sensors installed and only one cable plugging into one of them. I looked at your video and both your bodies have cables going into both sensors. I have not pulled my valve body out to see if mine had both sensors and if so if they are both wired up, was going to wait till I got the new part but maybe I will have to drop it to find out. Just curious if you might have any insight or opinion. If you need a picture of what I am talking about you can go on ebay and search "Re0f10a Valve Body" and you sill see most of the results are pretty much the same with the same message. Was just wondering if this throws up any red flags in your opinion? UPDATE.. I should mention I get 2 error codes, one for pressure sensor A and one for pressure sensor B, Assuming those 2 sensors next to each other are A and B pressure sensors, Then I should assume I need a valve body with both sensors present and both wired up correct?
