Juke Auto gear box dipstick

[mark277239]

Hello, Older driver, newbie here. I know what a distributor and coil are. Anyway bought nice shiny 4 month old Juke 1.6 Connecta Auto (although it is the wife's really). Lifted the bonnet in front of the salesman, (who seemed amazed)and asked where the auto gear box oil dipstick was. Unless it is down the back somewhere, they appear not to fit one. Would I be correct?

Hi...welcome to the Forum

Not entirely sure but a lot of other manufacturers remove the dipstick and either have a service dipstick which they dip the box and then put it back in their toolbox or otherwise its sealed and drained and refilled to the correct quantity.

Shouldn't be an issue unless the transmission is losing fluid and you would notice that collecting on the undertray

Good to have you onboard

Cheers,  Trevor

Trevor Thanks. Ought not to be doing anything at the moment, but gauges and indicators just let you know what is going on under the bonnet. My neighbours Audi, does not have an oil dipstick, bad move trusting it to some sort of level device. Cheers for now.

It's okay if nothing goes wrong but by the time the vehicle warns you, it's probably too late anyway

I have been told by my nissan dealership the CVT unit is not servicable by them. Nissan GB seem to sy different, 

fluid change at 90k, and level checked on intermediate services. my 2018 Juke CVT unit is terminal, over 6k to fix!
