While experimenting had some little slips also when driving steady.

Are there some news on this?

Now I have 146 k km. Now it is slipping even when driving in manual mode and 5th gear. So it is progressing. Only answer from dealer for now is to replace whole gearbox. To be continued..

 

Now I had changed secondarry pressure sensor and run few thousand km without problems. So my theory about faulty sensor was right. When you hear a sqeeling sound and feel slipping when accelerating, first try changing the seccondarry pressure sensor.

Thinking of CVTF drainf and fill to lengthen the life of CVT.

I also did the drain and fill. One time driving the slipping happened for few times. I thougt - that is it.. Will need to change the CVT. But since than some few thousand km it's all ok. Have the old oil in bottle and will send it to lab. The old oil is 150k km.

2012 Outback. 65,000 miles. needs new CVT. $8,000 job.

What was wrong with it? What happened?

We've got about 130kms on ours. Bought with 120.

 

PROBLEM: when driving at a steady pace of anything above 50kmh and in 6th "gear", it will squeal and abruptly shift from 6th to 5th and then back to 6th with a very defined slip.

 

Not sure what to make of it as no-one seems to have a problem like this. Could it be that the torque convertor is done? I would hope so ... cheaper than replacing the tranny!
