CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) Service & Repair Guelph, 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.

Absolute amazing shop they took care of me and my father's 01 4Runner. The solenoid started to act up and they fixed it up under the warranty hassle-free. Would recommend this shop as it knows how to look after its customers and the service there is class!

Christian Harrison
I had a quote for $5000 from a dealership to replace a cracked flex plate. The part was going to take 2 weeks and the work 18 hours. Wanting a 2nd opinion, I asked for suggestions and was directed to try Mr. Transmisison on Woodlawn. Not only was the quote $1400 (which ended up being less than that!), but the parts were available next day. It took Mr. Transmission 8 hours to do the work and it was ready same day. If you are looking for honest and friendly work at the fraction of the cost, go see Ashley and Corey at Mr. Transmisison. Your wallet will thank you.
