Expert Nissan Murano transmission service at Chicago Transmission since 1987.

Transmission History by Year β€” Nissan Murano

2003–2008: RE0F09A CVT (first-gen β€” 3.5L V6)
2009–2014: JF011E CVT
2015+: JF016E CVT

Known Nissan Murano Transmission Problems

  • JF016E CVT (2015+): Same belt failure pattern as Rogue and Altima β€” high failure rate in FWD and AWD applications
  • JF011E CVT (2009–2014): Step motor failure and belt wear β€” common in second-gen Murano at 80–120k miles

  • CVT warning light
  • Loss of power (heat protection mode)
  • Hesitation pressing gas at any speed

Nissan Murano FAQ

Common Nissan Murano Transmission Questions

All Murano generations use Jatco CVTs with known failure rates. Extended fluid service intervals are the #1 cause. Change NS-3 every 30k miles.

Likely the primary pulley bearing β€” a CVT failure mode. Get it diagnosed before the bearing fails completely and sends metal through the unit.

Know what you're getting into β€” budget for potential CVT service. A Murano with documented CVT fluid changes is much safer than one without.

3–4 days.

The AWD heat load is higher β€” yes, AWD Muranos tend to have earlier CVT issues than FWD models.
