Owner reviews for CVT transmission

I own a Honda CVT, with these if you change the fluid every 30,000 you should be good as long as you don't constantly do jackrabbit starts / streetlight race.

2017 owner here. I purchased my car 2 years ago. I'd say it's pretty durable to me. I've traveled many states and do delivery driving for 2 years now. She has never broken down on me. She takes abuse really well.

My 2018 rogue with 75k miles just shit the bed with the cvt transmission. Thank god they’re going to replace it for free or else it would’ve costed $6300 for that bs up here in Long Island.

CVT feels underpowered at times (ramdam mo yung parang rubber band).

that whiny CVT noise.

As hard as I've tried I really just don't like the CVT at all. It's very unrefined and herky-jerky under hard acceleration and it reminds me of what it's like to drive a power boat. Just two gears...one forward and one backward. It does have simulated gear shifts (it's supposed to mimic a 7-speed transmission) but at the end of the day I just don't like it. This was my first AND LAST car with a CVT.

Had a total failure of the DCT in my 2013 BMW 335is. At about 3500 miles, it left me on the road side.
