Valvoline Full Synthetic CVT Continuously Variable Transmission Fluid 1 GA

Correct product on the correct date delivered to the correct address. I saved about 13% and didn't have to drive out to look for it; what an age we live in. Now, if I just had the other half of my order correctly delivered to my address, I could use this product. I guess I will have to drive out to look for a funnel.

I had the full fluid flush at my local Valvoline Instant Oil Change and was very happy. I had the service performed twice. They used the Valvoline CVT Transmission Fluid. I bought my 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage as a Salvage vehicle, and I could always tell the difference immediately after the fluid flush. I purchased the car with 40,000 miles and kept it until 225,000 miles. The transmission and engine were still good; the rest of the car, not so much.

works as advertised

At 36k miles on my beloved civic, I was starting to get a slight hint of cvt tranny whine with the original fluid. I switched to the valvoline and the whine (as slight as it was) is now completely gone again. So far, I'm a fan! If'n the CVT fails in the future, well...I'll come back and change my review obviously. LOL But so far so good.

First drain and fill for my 2016 Nissan Rogue at 64,000 miles, I picked up 4 quarts from my local advanced auto parts and did the work myself, so far I can feel that the vehicle has a much smoother performance and I would highly recommend it.

Used this in our Nissan instead of the Nissan ATF. Have had good luck with Valvoline ATF in the past but have not tried the CVT version. So far the transmission is fine. Did drain and refill X 2 and the fluid was dirty at ~ 30 K miles. Hoping to use it again.

The best for my Nissan rogue 2017. The transmission don't give me that winning annoying sound when accelerating and it easily goes uphill. Accelerates with ease. I've observed good mileage since I changed my transmission fluid. I believe it's the best on the market.

I used this as a low cost alternative to the Subaru brand CVT fluid in my 2015 Crosstrek 110k miles. Initially it seemed okay, but after 500 miles I began experiencing persistent lurching during deceleration and acceleration. I swapped it out with the Subaru fluid, and my problems went away instantly. I like Valvoline products, but my Subaru does not.

One of the main concerns is the fluid's viscosity at 100°C, which is approximately 5.6 cSt. This relatively low viscosity may increase the risk of wear due to a thinner lubricating oil film. Since CVT transmissions are highly sensitive to lubrication characteristics, adequate film thickness is important for protecting metal-to-metal contact surfaces. In comparison, many aftermarket CVT fluids have a viscosity of around 7 cSt or higher at 100°C, potentially providing a thicker lubricating film under high-temperature operating conditions.

I drive a 2011 Subaru Outback 2.5i CVT. My car has 256,000 miles on the original engine and CVT. I did my first drain and fill around 240,000 miles and a second drain and fill a short time after. I used the Valvoline due to the lower price and at first it seemed to do great. However, I began to notice that I felt more vibration and noise under power when the fluid became warm after driving it a bit. My engine also seemed to be working harder than normal to maintain highway speed as well. Then at around 254,000 miles, my car began to lurch when the torque converter would lock and unlock. I then bought the Subaru fluid and did a drain and fill to get the Valvoline stuff out. The tranny was instantly better. The vibration and noise is gone and the torque converter is acting normal again. For my Subaru, it will only get OEM CVT fluid from here on out. For engine and differential oil I think Valvoline is a great product and will keep using it but not for my CVT.
