6 Things You Should NEVER Do In A CVT Car | GoMechanic #KnowYourCar

#CVT #ContinuouslyVariableTransmission #AutomaticTransmission

CVT or Continuously Variable Transmission is a remarkable feat in Automatic technology that uses belts and conical pulleys which provide “virtual” gear ratios.

By virtual we mean, there are no gears involved; it’s just the diameter of the conical pulley that is altered due to hydraulic pressure which in turn varies the speed via the output shaft

My toyota cvt 12years of ownership, I launch it, I drive it fast everyday and it still shifting like a dream

[DaddyIppsTV]

Still use N on a stop light, it prevents overheating the CVT Fluid. Also, this prevents you from colliding with the vehicle in front of you.

[snsudharsan]

Wonderful, thank you so much for your detailed explanation. Owning a new CVT, I realize the mistakes I have been doing and those I should avoid 🙏👍

Sounds like a fun transmission to drive, couldn't wait to get one when I hit 90 year old

[adityakamath]

Is it okay to toggle between D & S while driving? 1:24

[niraj]

YOU SAID "Keep the CVT on D mode to stop the vehicle at RED SIGNAL". How is that possible without keeping the BRAKE PEDAL engaged? You also said "not to engage the BRAKE PEDAL, for best performance. The only way D mode can be disengaged automatically, in such conditions is by using either the PARKING BRAKE or AUTO-HOLD function - which again is a matter of concern as some experts suggest against using those, as well. Then what is the best way to keep the vehicle still at a RED SIGNAL OR how to drive in a STOP & GO traffic??

How aggressive can I engine break (drop gears ) going down steep hills ? I live in a very hilly area and I drop to 3rd or 2nd to go down slowly and not burn my breaks. Is that okay ? 2023 Nissan Rogue. Great video !

[sanurawat]

So basically its not good for me because majority of my driving is on hills of Uttarakhand & sometimes I've to overtake during inclines where I've rev engine hard...

[mohammedameen]

Then in case of overthinking what should we do ?

[vinznes]

If put d in traffic, isn't the belt spinning at pulley? If press brake on pressure the belt will slip

[nkj]

CVT is best. I am using. Its better than DCT and AMT in all sense. Its feul efficiency is 99% same as in case of manual.

Most important thing that there leg while speeding up or driving at Hilly area. In case of Automatic transmission we feel leg while shifting takes place but in case of CVT just smooth driving. So on road driving CVT is really marvel of engineering.

Above six points many points are also applicable in case of manual and automatic transmission too. Eg change of gear box oil after 50-60Km.. No braking while in acceleration.. No clutch use while driving only and no need of shift.
No shift from forward to reverse or skipping the sequence if gear in case of manual Or no D to R / R to D direct shift while driving.

Oh my thanks for this video I must follow these instructions I think I am a little heavy on the brake and yes I must come to complete stop before shifting gears wow I’m getting a new transmission as I type my original failed on me only 96 thousand miles & I just bought the car appreciate the tips I don’t like CVT bad first experience

[joeyyseee]

I’ve had automatic trans and manual trans and now I have a CVT and it shifts so smooth and I feel the torque instantly I’m starting to like the CVT . I have one question can I race if I have a cvt transmission? Thank you

[mohitkumar]

I have honda amaze CVT, I usually move from D to S to D (not very frequently though) just to overtake sometime. Does that impact CVT gear box?

[anson]

this video is good for my friend who launching my cvt car and attempt to damage my car.

[nipunmanirajanautodatabase]

Please bring details of torque converter

[gregnixon]

The advice that I am hearing about a CVT is that you should drive the car like a grandpaw to make sure that it will last.

[russellmaddock]

Who wants a vehicle that you have to be so gentle with. CVT's are garbage, I know I don't want any vehicle with one, regardless of the manufacture. If I need to launch hard, I don't want to feel like I may be doing damage to the transmission. All I can hope for is at least one manufacture continues to offer an automatic that shifts, and I can if I need to, hammer it without worrying about causing damage or premature ware. What a load of crock. And it seems most CVT's are not rebuildable, they are replaced with used or new units. If that is the case and your vehicle has 150, 000 miles on it, then it has become a throw away vehicle. At least regular automatic transmission can be rebuilt with new internal parts. Talk about a bad investment. CVT transmission? No thanks.

[galnadjar]

i don't get it, honda civic 2017 1.5 CVT
with 182 HP, after second gear why pushing is so bad for it? honda wouldn't do a car which can't rev, i can understand launching but reving in higher gears?

[Vipliocapprio]

Want to know whether sound comes while braking in cvt drive mode?
