Hey guys. Excuse me if this is a repeat post, I’m a new member and couldn’t find anything on the topic. I picked up a 2013 Altima 2.5 SL with a bad transmission. I’m pretty mechanically inclined, so I ordered a used CVT and got it installed in a little over a week. Now that it’s in, I’m getting the same P0500 and P2765 code that I had before. The car will move under its own power now, but not much over 10 mph or so. I replaced the input turbine speed sensor and still the same issue. The transmission I put in was relatively low mileage, around 45k. Was I sent a bad transmission, or does the used transmission have to be programmed with a Consult-III? Anybody have any advice?

I change my fluid every 30k, did a pan drop and filter at about 90k, and got a P0746 code today at 160,000 miles, along with P0500, and P2765. I had just changed the fluid a few weeks ago too. I have an AUX cooler as well.
I was coasting down a steep hill when this occurred, as the trans braking had the RPMs up to 3500
as I was coasting. One of the pulleys may have had some over-speed on the hill to set those, who knows.
I then went up a small grade, the RPMs tanked, the car vibrated then came out of gear, well, the clutches let go. Would not go back into drive or reverse. Had to be towed.

Everyone goes there, and are wrong 68% of the time. I believe
changing the sensor, and clearing the TCM will either fix it, or
just temporarily. I put a cooler on this right after I bought it,
and have done fluid changes every 30,000 miles, and with the
cooler, it comes out almost as red as it went in.
I will not conclude the trans is broken.

I have already dropped the pan and did a fluid and filter change, and cleaned the
magnets. The color of the fluid is not effected by what the magnets
pick up. It was dark the first change, at 85K, and I have driven it to 160K
and changed it continually at every 30 - 40k.
There is also and AUX cooler on the trans, I installed it myself.
The CVT8 does not have a stepper motor.
I cannot afford $5500 for a replacement owing $9000

Yeah, I read that a while ago, but you still need the Consult software that NTB12-103f
specifies.
I found a 2017 CVT for $1225 with 44K miles on it...
I am not concerned with any fluid color information...

I ended up getting the trans replaced. I found a local shop that:
Picked up the car.
Replaced the Trans (filters, fluid).
Washed the car.
Delivered the car.
$2500 Cash - Yes, $2500 Cash.
Belt broke in the other one. I wanted to get it back, but I never
had the time to pick it up...
