5.0 out of 5 stars Good CVT fluid for 2015 Jeep Compass!
I recently serviced the CVT in my 2015 Jeep Compass. I did a drain and fill and also replaced the two CVT filters. This Valvoline 6-pack was the perfect amount, and I had a quart extra for topping off and future use. I recently did a 9 hour drive from Kansas to New Mexico. I used Jscan to check my CVT temperature when I got to my destination and it was running at 153*. So far, this fluid has worked very well in my Jeep and I'm happy with it. This case of 6 came out to less than $10 a bottle, so it was the best price I could find.
5.0 out of 5 stars 2013 Nissan Altima 3.5 CVT (5th Gen) NS-3 compatible!
2013 Altima 3.5 owner here. Wife is the primary driver in the central FL stop-and-go traffic and the oppressive heat/humidity (the humidity also reduces the effectiveness of a heat exchanger....and this makes Florida worse than even Texas or Arizona for heat related failures). Wife does most of the driving. She had her first violent "CVT shudder" at 27,000 miles and, now at 28-and-change, the transmission is beginning to behave poorly. It's slow to change ratios, allows more vibration through the driveline, and is sluggish off the line. Nissan dealers at first refused to change the fluid as it was a "60,000 mile change interval. It's FINE." Then they agreed to change it with the newer (and thinner) NS-3 rated CVT fluid....for $330 for a drain and refill. This was the same price at two different dealers in a major Florida city. Unacceptable.So I conducted my due diligence research and found this Valvoline CVT fluid, which their latest data sheet (available on their website) indicates is compatible with the NS-3 standard.So I drove my Altima up onto a set of ramps, finagled the drain plug tube stopper (with NO DIPSTICK attached, mind you) off of the drain tube, and obtained a drain tub that has markings for fill level...so I could quickly and easily measure EXACTLY how much fluid came out. Good thing I did, because according to most folks, 6 quarts were going to exit my transmission....but only 3 quarts took the dive due to the incline of the vehicle. No biggie. It'll just take two drain and fills to use up my 6qt case. Please remember that this transmission will throw a code AND go into a full-on limp mode (crippling the car and preventing you from shifting into drive in some cases) if there is too little fluid, OR too much. So getting within about a tenth of a quart is important. Also, double up your gloves because the fluid needs to be at operating temp to be drained and this is HOT.Onto driving impressions with only 3 quarts swapped: The transmission is observably quieter, smoother, and more responsive within the first mile. Within ten miles, the difference is stark....it's back to the ultra-smoothness that sold me on the car. I'm very pleased! I'm excited to do another 3qt drain and fill this weekend and am expecting more of an improvement. In fact, at this level of economy via Bolo's great prices, I'm debating an additional drain and refill with another 6qt case just to have more of this fluid in the transmission, period.Note: this Valvoline fluid has a very light green tint to it. Not nearly as green as the factory NS-3 Nissan fluid...but at least it's not red. I do not think a dealer would even notice that another fluid has been used. It looks very close to the NS-3 fluid when new, with less green dye.Lastly, the factory fluid that came out was dark green, looked burnt, and had a burnt smell to it. It was very clearly at the end of its useful life. Having smelled a freshly opened quart of NS-3 Nissan fluid at the dealer, the factory fluid is DONE at 28k miles. It seems Nissan should be observing 20k fluid change intervals for their CVTs as my wife drives the car very easy and always lets all fluids get to operating temperature before giving it the beans in traffic. This Valvoline has a full synthetic base stock and is designed for high-temp applications. I'm very pleased so far and buy with confidence for your NS-3 compatible Altima, Maxima, or Pathfinder CVT! Go Bolo!!!A note for the 5th gen Altima: The CVT in this Altima has a circuit from the engine coolant outlet on the radiator that passes heated engine coolant directly to the transmission to speed-up the transmission warm-up and to thin the fluid so it is functioning in its most optimal range. So, while this fluid is certainly thicker than the factory fluid in cold climates, using the Nissan engine freeze plug block heater when it's cold would ALSO serve to warm this tranny up much quicker. Not a concern for me in Florida as I only see temps below 20 degrees F once or twice a year. Any Nissan dealer can install this freeze plug and there are several to choose from here on Bolo for about $40.MPG Note: My wife has seen her long term MPG creep up by .1 MPG this week. Could be weather. Could be statistical noise. But she also reports easier cruising with smaller throttle openings. Regardless, there seems to be no negative effect on fuel mileage.
5.0 out of 5 stars Worked well in my 2010 Nissan Altima CVT
Unfortunately, my year Altima did not have a drain plug, so I had to remove the pan. I realize that this doesn't remove all the fluid, but it does remove the same amount that most dealerships are taking out. My Altima had dealership fluid exchanges at 60000 and 120000 miles.nnthey are expensive. This time, when I got to 160000miles, I decided to drain and fill. I removed both filters, including the small cartridge filter that is a PIA. Fortunately, I'll likely never replace that one again. So far, about 2000 miles later, everything seems to be working very well. This fluid is clear in color and closely resembles the factory Nissan CVT fluid, which I think is made by Idemsu. Do not use the Valvoline in the red bottle because that fluid is red and may confuse things in the future. Stuck with this synthetic blue bottle fluid. Stinks bad but works great, so far
5.0 out of 5 stars Better than OEM
I could immediately feel the difference when I performed the cvt flush and replaced the filter and drip pan. The car pulls strongly and I feel assured that the fluid is doing its job.Definitely great value for money and the gear chifts are smooth. Valvoline is a quality brand and I definitely will use this fluid again.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good for Honda CR-V
Important Information:If you have a CVT transmission, make sure to change your transmission fluid every 30,000 miles. I have been working on cars for years and these transmissions aren't the strongest. In the manual it says it is "lifetime fluid" but it isn't. I have seen them fail as low as 50,000 miles.This product works great with Honda CVT transmissions.Here are some tips if you plan to change your transmission fluid:1. Search how many quarts you need. Front wheel drive vehicles dont need as much as all wheel drive vehicles.2. Go for a drive before draining to get all the contaminants out.3. Check if you need a washer and what kind.Hope this was helpful.
4.0 out of 5 stars direct replacement for OEM on my CVT
bottles came with lid sealed and wrapped in plastic. No leaks from bottle. Was much cheaper than local parts store.

La qualité du produit est primordial .
Pour l'entretien d'une transmission CVT de Nissan Rogue SV 2016 . N'oublier pas de remplacer le filtreur auxiliaire et le O-RING .
It Took About 15k-km to Start Driving Nicely.
My transmission is Subaru TR580 CVT. For the first 15,000-km, My transmission kept giving jerky sensations when it automatically down shifts, and low speed launches in heavy traffic were so dull & sluggish I had to give more throttle. But after 15k and as winter became bolder, car found its rhythm, gracefully gliding along the highway of life. It’s fun now. I believe I have 20k-30k of fun before I have to change CVT oil. Maybe next time I will add some CVT lubricant/treatment.
expensive but needed
the right stuff for my pathfinder -- need hor for a partial change
Perfect
