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

Tanya Comrie
I had the best experience with Mister Transmission at the Queensway. Uli took really good care of me and was very professional, kind and courteous. He was able to explain thoroughly what was the problem and gave me constant updates in terms of what was happening with my car. He took a hopeless situation with my car’s transmission (as stated by dealership) and fixed my car. It runs as good as new. John, the mechanic was very thorough as well. If you need your transmission done, please go to this location. As mentioned in another post, the owner and everyone at Mister Transmission are very honest and do a fantastic job. I cannot say enough good things about this place. Thanks Uli!

The store is under new management. They fixed a problem in my car from a bad job that was done last year. My car was there a little longer then we expected but they did everything they could to fix it and we picked it up with the job done properly. Give Uli and Aki a try they are honest people. I called a few places before went there and they had a fare price.

This store is under new ownership, Aki Sahaye is the store manager. They are working and ensuring this location meets up to the expectations of Mister Transmission. David Rinella was the old manager/owner of the franchise, he is the one that caused NUMEROUS ISSUES and thankfully Aki worked with me and sorted everything out. Aki is professional and you can be sure this location is running smoothly. Head Office of Mister Transmission is aware of what the previous owners/management has done. They will hopefully be investigating the Mister Transmission at Jane and Lawrence, so no one else is taken advantage of!! Good Job Aki Sahaye, thank you for righting the wrongs!! We will be back!!
