Nissan has issued Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) NTB24-022, dated March 11, 2024, to inform technicians and owners about the availability of crucial service parts for the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) in certain Sentra models. This TSB specifically addresses 2021-2023 Nissan Sentra vehicles equipped with the RE0F10D transmission, providing updated information on how to obtain necessary components for CVT repairs.

This bulletin is primarily an informational update regarding parts supply. It ensures that the correct and latest components are used for repairs, helping to maintain the performance and longevity of your vehicle's transmission. Owners facing CVT-related issues should be aware that these specialized Nissan Sentra CVT parts are now readily available.

Important Information for Owners

It is crucial for owners to understand that TSB NTB24-022 does not include diagnostic or service procedure information. This means the bulletin itself does not provide instructions on how to diagnose a CVT problem or perform a repair. Instead, it focuses solely on the availability of parts.

If your Nissan Sentra is experiencing CVT issues, your technician will need to refer to the Electronic Service Manual (ESM) for the necessary diagnostic information and repair procedures. This ensures that any repair involving these new Nissan Sentra CVT parts is performed correctly and according to Nissan's specifications.

Available CVT Service Parts

Nissan has made the CVT Belt & Pulley sub-assembly kit available for order. This kit, along with other critical components, is essential for comprehensive CVT repairs. The TSB lists the following parts:

Model Year Description Part Number Quantity
All BELT-PULLEY KIT (sub-assembly) 31214-28X7D 1
2020 VALVE ASSY KIT-CONTROL 3170E-28X1C As needed
2021-2023 VALVE ASSY KIT-CONTROL 3170E-28X2C As needed

Technicians should also note that additional single-use parts, not included in the above kits, may be required. These can be identified using the Single Use Parts list found in the Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) for CVT Removal & Replacement (R&R) procedures.

Required Fluids and Sealants

Proper fluids and sealants are critical for any CVT repair. TSB NTB24-022 specifies the following:

  • Loctite 5460 Sealant: Part number 999MP-LT5460P. This sealant is not included in the kits mentioned above. One container is typically sufficient for approximately five repairs.
  • Nissan NS-3 CVT Fluid: Part number 999MP-CV0NS3.

For warranty repairs, both Nissan NS-3 CVT Fluid and Loctite 5460 Sealant must be used. For customer-pay repairs, these specific products or their equivalents are recommended to ensure optimal performance and durability of the Nissan Sentra CVT parts.

Technicians can order Nissan NS-3 CVT Fluid and Loctite 5460 Sealant through the Nissan Maintenance Advantage program. This can be done by calling 877-NIS-NMA1 (877-647-6621) or by visiting the dealer portal www.NNAnet.com and clicking on the “Maintenance Advantage” link.

When billing for Loctite 5460 Sealant (or an equivalent product), technicians should use expense code 008. The Loctite 5460 Sealant part number should not be included on the claim.

Claims Information

For details regarding warranty claims and applicable warranty information related to these Nissan Sentra CVT parts, refer to the Warranty Flat Rate Manual (WFRM).
