CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) Service & Repair Brampton, Ontario

 

A traditional automatic transmission uses a complex series of gears to transfer the engine’s power to the wheels. A CVT is a type of automatic transmission, but it has no gears at all. Instead, it uses a pulley and belt system to provide an unlimited range of gear ratios. Popular auto makers, such as Nissan, Toyota, Subaru, Chrysler and Honda, are introducing CVT’s to their model lineups to offer customers an option with improved acceleration and enhanced fuel economy.

CVT Common Problems

CVT’s are still relatively new to the market and can be very difficult and complicated to diagnose and repair. While CVT’s have fewer moving parts and are simpler in design, it is new technology and our technicians have completed extensive training specific to CVT’s and are well qualified to work with your vehicle.

Come common problems to look out for with your CVT include:

  • Transmission ‘jerking’, slipping, grinding or jumping during acceleration when the car is shifting gears
  • Noisy while driving – some customers have issues with a ‘whining’, ‘clanging’ or ‘rattling’ sound while driving especially with Nissan CVT’s
  • Contaminated or low transmission fluid
  • Overheating
  • Check Engine Light On
  • Gears changing at high RPM

My vehicle is showing at least one of these signs, what should I do?

If you suspect your CVT transmission is not performing as it should be, bring it in to your local Mister Transmission. We always start with our FREE Road Test and Multi Check Inspection to identify any problems with your transmission and provide you with different repair options. The key to minimizing repair costs is to get them checked as soon as you notice them, and you most likely only need a minor repair or service.

Dave Lundy
Brian was very professional and patiently answered all my questions so I could understand them. Our 2008 Mazda CX-9 now has a bit more life left in it, so that will buy us some time to make a replacement without being pressured. Besides, we like the Mazda quite a bit; it is fun to drive. If I get a late-model car in the future, I will remember from now on to change the transmission oil every 2 years. One of the useful tips Brian shared with me.

Brian Pearson
Automotive service, particularly for older model vehicles, can be hit or miss, and unfortunately mostly miss. At least this has been my personal experience in the Brampton area. Or I should say, that had been my experience until last week. The service I received from Stafford (Brampton - Mister Transmission) was a prime example of true customer focused automotive service. Stafford went above and beyond to ensure our issue was resolved. Stafford worked within their busy schedule to look at our vehicle, identify the problem and then, due to part shortages, took the time and effort to recondition the failing part and get us safely back on the road. Stafford - Thank you!

Stafford was extremely professional from start to finish and made me feel comfortable that I was in good hands. Took my 2016 Nissan Sentra to multiple places and either got outrageous quotes or incorrect diagnosis. Stafford and the team were very knowledgeable about exactly what the issues were and were upfront about it all with no shadiness. They also got the car towed from Nissan to their shop, free of charge. The diagnostic was free of charge as well. Both fees were waived because I got the work done by them. Now my car runs very smooth, better than it has in years. 10/10 would recommend these guys!

Second time we have taken one of our Ford vehicles to Mister Transmission for repair as the dealership either misdiagnosed or couldn’t do it all together. Luke and Stafford were great and they have a complete run down on everything that was needed or not needed.
