This Nissan Rogue was donated to me, but it needed a new transmission which is a BIG JOB! I decided that it would be cool to fix it and give it to a person graduating high school that could use a hand getting started in life. I appealed to my AWESOME audience to help me pay for the parts, and you guys donated WAY MORE than I was expecting. Thank you!! So I bought the parts, fixed everything up, and found a deserving winner of this car. I’m humbled and honored to be able to do this, made possible by my patrons and so many people who made one time contributions to the cause. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!

Geeeez, again he fixed smth
Hey did you torque the front wheel bearings? I've only seen you tighten it with the impact but some cars require over 300nm to get it to spec.
that is how the world should be. you inspire me John..I hope i can be like you even at 10%.
Awesome John u have done a great job.
It's as well you got her something she could fit in…
Great work for a great cause. I was always taught that you need to hold the torque wrench on the handle of it, otherwise you will not get the set torque. I haven't tested myself what the difference would be, but it might be some logic behind it, so I follow that rule.
throwing good money after bad. Sorry but i would rather you buy a rx300 and fixing it up, would have cost less than that crappy transmission.
Nice job dude
your a good man
You're a good man brother, thank you for being the example of what we need in this world
If she can get another 150k that's cool, but if you were in there it really needed a transmission cooler. Nissan should be sued for everyone on the road without one
Haven’t teared up in a while!
Your very right about in rural areas if you don’t have a car you can’t get a job
There is aftermarket fluid kind of idemitsu makes Nissan CVT fluid so you can just buy idemitsu brand fluid it’s basically the same stuff
Way to go! Those Nissans have good engines but those Jatco transmissions are their short fall. I drove a 1991 Maxima to over 300,000 miles. I was on it's 3rd transmission. I got a lot of tips watching you do this (I currently drive a 2017 Nissan Sentra SR Turbo). It too has a CVT. It's got 87,000 on it now. I've changed the fluid out at 40,000. Hopefully, with regular maintenance, I won't have any problems. Really enjoyed the two part series. Wish her all the best with her car, thanks to you!
Nice job John!
Great work!!!
Probably beyond economic repair which is a shame to add another one to landfill/scrap, so glad everyone could come together on this one
