I got a Standard Transmission 2014 Nissan Sentra. Best Gas Milage with a decent amount of horse power.
no dont do it scotty
nissan is garbage right now ...........endless money pit
scotty please make your own car brand and millions of people will buy your celica
Scotty, all your customers have dirty cars.

You stole my word Justin. All their cars are well... dirty.
I know,, EVERYONE,, slobs.
at least it distracts from the cracked windshield
Scotty : talks smack about Nissan .
Also Scotty : gets a Sentra
I dont understand scotty you said cvt transmissions suck..so why buy one
You really think he bought this thing, lol?
He did not buy this Nissan 👎🏾

If Toyota ever bring back the celica they need to send Scotty one on the house.

LOL he always shows Chevy for his junkyard pics!
I love it
It should be FCA dealership also LOL!

Patrick Kamski till they break down on you 😢 those things are like bmws high maintenance... well Scotty and I got our reasons
he'd make a profit selling is older Lexus for a newer FIAT.
Eww your pfp
Followed by: Why I'm not getting any lately.
160 MPH speedometers on everything "grinds my gears".
The only way that thing would hit 160 is if you dropped it from a C-130...
Yeah. 100 MPH speedometers would be better.
probably so they can make one speedo for everything
You're right Jeffery. 100 MPH would be better. These high speed units keep your eyes off the road too long trying to read them. And they're maddening when trying to set the cruise control!
I bought an ‘07 Nissan Versa when I was broke, drove it for about 7 years and the engine blew at 279,000 miles, I guess I got my money’s worth?
Yes, just about. Not too bad
Depends, did you buy it new, or used? If used, how many miles were already on it?
Glad to read that
I have an 2008 Versa. They did not come will a CVT.
JackLoyal93 used, I think it had 130,000 on it?
One of the best cars I owned, was a B 13 1992 Nissan Sentra coupe, with a GA16DE 1.6 L engine, and four speed manual transmission. That car lasted me until it had 401,000 miles.
WOW 😳 😊
"Look what I just bought" --- That is a false statement. Isn't Scotty Kilmer supposed to be an honest mechanic? I'm disappointed. Please respect the audience's time.
Why recommend a car because its cheap with a transmission he warns against when the transmission replacement will cost as much as the car. Also,though known to be unreliable the Nissan cvts Ive driven is so much smoother than the one in my Corolla.
My guy.. you can stay in the city in the sky. In lala land. You dont have to watch scottys videos. We will stay in reality with scotty and enjoy his content and quality information.
@@qrm8772 The only reason the Nissan CVT's are branded as unreliable is because people neglect to take them to the dealer to change the fluid.
@@ssjMaximum22Goku You don't have to take them to a dealer. We take our (Australian market) 2010 Nissan Maxima 2.5 V6 to a trusted mechanic. When it comes to the CVT, he sends it to an automatic transmission specialist who do CVT maintenance everyday. Our car recently clicked over 75,000 kms (47k miles) and they said the oil was clean as a whistle when doing the CVT oil change.
I tell my wife the same two words over and over "mechanical sympathy" When the car is cold, baby it when taking off and driving until it gets warm and avoid really hard off the line starts, take off smoothly before giving it the beans. I am hopeful, I'll get another 10 years and 100,000 kms (62.5k miles) out of it with regular maintenance and mechanical sympathy. The car is just extremely smooth to drive, it really is a joy. I would be heart broken if the transmission gave out. Two neighbours had the same car and both did over 150,000 kms (93k miles) without any CVT transmission issue.
He literally said he never bought a nissan
Scott this is my first time commenting on your videos. I have truly enjoyed your videos over the years. And you have saved me plenty of money over the years
"Trading My Toyota Celica for a Nissan Sentra"
What, what, what?
I bought my 2004 Nissan Sentra for $500 five years ago. I have never had an issue with it and I put a 100,000 km on it and it's still running well :)
BEWARE OF THE C V T!
2 TRANSMISSIONS IN
No problems show up on the scan tool. Not even the dealer found codes. Crap car.
biggie2006 mines lasted 5 years over 100k miles no problem
E C mine too 👍🏼
biggie2006
Garbage 2010 Jeep Compass CVT transmission went bad at 109,000 miles.
Such a terrible idea and design.
@@EC-iu3yb *biggie2006*
People in Canada or northern Europe will swear by Nissans, and claim they're reliable, people from Arizona or Florida have horror stories.
I'm wondering if their problem maybe overheating, and wearing out the rubber in the trans (the V6s usually have steel belts instead, which explains Maximas and Muranos being generally more reliable)...where exactly are you guys from?
@@naywahn Its called poor quality control. Its why one person may have a car do 300K miles with minimal issues while other blew the motor at 100K, and another blew the tranny at 50K.
Its why Toyota is considered so reliable, its not just their engineering, while that is a part of it, any of these companies can engineer a reliable car, its not tough, but having the QUALITY CONTROL to ensure that every engine/transmission that leaves your facility is built to 100% efficiency is another story.
This is why you'll hear scotty yell "Mercedes are money pits". Yet he'll also say "Unless you live in Germany".
Same car, same engine/transmission/everything else, so what gives? Well, they're manufactured in Mexico, or America, where the workers do a way worse job at quality control when putting the cars together.
The standards over here are different than there.
Toyota rewards people for finding problems, other car brands would probably fire you/ignore it. Just how it goes.
The location/factory will depend allot on how the cars coming out of that factory are as far as quality goes.
This is why one EXP may be great, another terrible, but if you average that out, that's a 50/50, not REALLY worth the risk, whereas a Toyota ensures that 100% of customers all get the same quality regardless of factory/location, and therefore, they are considered reliable.
So to answer your question, if what you're saying is true, its because the cars manufactured in Canada/Europe are held to higher standards in the manufacturing process, though, even in those circumstances, the best Nissan factory still probably doesn't compare to the best Toyota factory.

BUYER BEWARE of the CVT!!!!!
YESS CVT BAD NEWS!!
Only been a real problem for Automatic Transmission my Sentra is Standard Transmission and is pushing 120,000 miles still going strong.
William Carter yes the manuals are good
The newer Sentras seem to have improved transmissions because I was considering a car like this after my last got totaled and there are way less complaints online for transmission issues after 2016 or 2017 with high mileage. Still would never consider one without having a mechanic seriously look at it like Scotty mentioned.
Buy a newer Nissan with a manual transmission
Agree with Scotty 100%. Some of the older Nissans with conventional automatic transmissions can be a solid buy. With Toyota you are paying a lot more for something that is marginally better.
Every poor student & young shift worker is looking for that elusive old but low mileage Corolla!
I'm so thankful that you know so much info about cars!!!
Hi Scotty, I Iive in the south of Brazil, and have just bought a 2016 Sentra SV with 59k kilometers. It´s my second Sentra as I had a 2008, which I bought it brand new, both with CVT. The first one I used it for 11 years with no problems at all, but I'm a low mileage guy and I sold the 2008 in Nov 2018 with only 50K kilometers. So, it's my first used Sentra and the first thing I´ll do is to check and change the CVT fluid, as a preventive action, everything else in the car seems ok. Back in 2008 I chose Sentra after comparing it with the Corolla, and decided to buy the Sentra because if you buy a Corolla that costs the same as a Sentra you will have to take home a basic model, this is the Toyota price strategy used for the brazilian market. For example, the chepeast Corolla that costs the same as a mid range version of the Sentra does'nt even have a cruise control, and that sucks. So, because of high prices and lack of comfort equipments compared to the Sentra and for the type of use I make with my cars (5k kilometers per year), I chose Sentra that has a better cost benefit, in my case. Thanks for the videos!
Scotty, I have a 2001 Nissan Sentra, 1.4. And I'm very happy with it.
Nothing wrong with a Sentra, the leftovers are cheap as hell right now. Wouldn't mess with the CVT though. But you could get a leftover 2019 with the manual for like $13-14K right now.
What are your thoughts about the Chevy Cheyenne 1994 2500 long bed with a Tommy gate. It worked in an airport
I've learned alot from your videos, Thank You Scottie!
I got the Same Nissan but with the manual transmission. Love it !
Surprised he didn't get the manual as much as he praises them🤔
Nissan can save the manual transmission.
I drove one while my maxima was in the shop (sunroof track replacement) and it was fun, but it was the auto, I wish I could have driven a manual one, I bet it would be a blast on back roads.
I have a customer who has a 13/14 Sentra and he said it had 65,000 miles and was on it’s 3rd transmission
I had 2014 Sentra 6 speed. I miss that car. No issues and maintained it fully. I would def buy another one
Great, informative video. I got my used 2018 Sentra in 2020 for ballpark $12k. That's an absolute steal compared to what we are seeing now... transmission feel isn't my favorite (I also flushed at around 64k miles) but other than that it's had no problems in the 2 years I've owned it with fairly moderate use.
Great value buy
U flushed out the transmission yourself or u took it to a dealer?
Scotty boy lookin like a true delinquent in that 4 banger mustang 😂
You inspired me to start making educational content on my RUclips channel, thanks SCOTTY!
also I went to collegue to take basic auto maintenence classes and my teacher play lots of your videos to the class, so pretty much gave us the class 😂
Had a 94 and 01 Sentra,both were great cars.The 94 had lots of rust and the 01, I sold because I was moving to a large city.94 model was excellent on gas.I miss both.
when scotty points at a nissan you know its gonna be a great video
This is basically what we did - got a 2014 at 2 years old at the time 26k miles for just a bit above half price of when it was new. Corollas for the same price has about 80k miles and were a few years older. Changed the CVT fluid at 50k miles. It's around 54k now. No issues yet!
Andrew O
As long as you take care of your coolant & CVT flushes every 25-50K your transmission could take you to 220K miles
Do you still have it? Any issues with the transmission?
@@kornyque8081 74k miles now still no issues. We'll probably replace it with something with some more modern features in the next year, but it has been reliable our whole ownership.
Scotty, I've just watched a moment ago your live car talk and I've noticed that the shelves behind you are perfectly ordered. and here they are nearly falling from the weight on them, it seems the quarantine is affecting you quite a bit
Hello Scotty, I was wondering what you think of the Duramax 3.0L 6 cylinder diesel motor with the the ten speed transmission's on the quarter tons?
Let’s close the hood and take it for a spin... **SLAMS HOOD**
That's the correct way of closing the hood.
Ced''S Entertainment Channel [( spac20 )] stop regurgitating information I already know 😣
Then revs a cold engine 3:06

I have the same car but from 2015. So far no problems with the CVT at 70k miles. I'm hoping I can use this for a few years as my first car and dump it to someone else before I have any serious problems.
Did it hold up ?
@@user-ym8jk6yz2k still no major problems with 90k miles
Also, the 2016 Toyota Corolla comes with LED headlights standard and has a backup camera (except the base model) until it became mandatory in June 2018. I think the Nissan Sentra had Halogen lights
I love watching you, keep it up
I got the same car with 86k miles. as long as you drive mostly highway, these things aren't that bad.
How's ur car doing?
Was tempted to buy one of these for a daily driver. Had a rental car back when my car was totaled, and the CVT is silky smooth actually. Just ultra slow off the line but it gets up to 80 mph smoothly!
The Fault in Our Cutie Marks
There's a reason why Nissan sells CVTs redundantly!
My father has a 2013 Nissan Pathfinder 161000 miles CVT shutter my brother has a 2009 Marano 239000 miles CVT original and I have a 2010 Nissan Altima 142000 miles Nissan Make great cars that last well over 100 k
3:20 / 10:11 'Now you are certainly going to feel the bumps.' How true! This is why I sacrificed some response time for better Michelin sidewalls. My new sidewalls give more, and sidewalls are a big player in a soft ride.. I'm having fun with my new quieter tire. I don't have to turn up the radio, when I go faster and bumps don't kill my bearings, axles, linkage, struts, etc.
Scotty was busy re cluttering the book shelf I see! lol
my dad still has a 2007 nissan versa and he bought it brand new, he s been using it for12 years and runs 260000 miles without any problems
I got a new 1990 Nissan Sentra for $6800! I had it for over 10 years and it refused to die!! Manual 5-speed and 180,000 miles. Eventually I got rid of it but there was nothing wrong with it mechanically.
My mom leased the exact same trim but it was the 2015 pre facelift and silver. It was pretty damn good for an economy car, transmission wasnt too good and ride was a bit bumpy but everything else was fine and miles per gallon was amazing. I'm kinda missing it lol. We have a 2015 Chevy sonic RS now and it's just not the same.
Thanks SCOTTY!!! You're saving people thousands of dollars with these videos!!!!
The cracked windshield may not bother you, but the tickets you get will certainly bother you.
Indeed. Way back in 1984 my car got hammered by a hail storm in Austin TX with egg sized hail stones. Damage repair estimate: $3K on a car that new cost $6K, mostly sheet metal. I was informed that by state law glass and headlights/turn signals/stop lights all had to be intact, no cracks, no holes. So I replaced the windshield and turn signal plastic ($300) and pocketed the rest, driving a car that was now dimpled like a golf ball.
@@WildBikerBill Depends on your local police dept. I drove a beater Corolla for 10 yrs with a cracked windshield and never got pulled over for it.
"remember to BELL THAT RING"

And don't forget to engine up your revs. :-p
Good luck Scotty with Sentra!! I bought a brand new one in 2014 and has 180 miles on it so far. I have to change shocks every year as they damaged very fast + many other parts in lower area like control aram bushings, stabilizer, engine mounts and other parts. Not well crafted Car at all.
I just might get one because of your thorough review.
Scotty my cadillac ATS 2013 2.5L 88K miles and engine makes a weird sound when i press the ignition switch. I already got a new battery and new spark plugs what can it be? HELP!
Omar Zepeda death rattle
Spenser Chalkley | I got the car at 16 when I started my first job before finding Scotty on RUclips and it sounds like when it’s a cold start I press the brake and the start up button and it makes a noise in the engine like if it doesn’t start up well or it has a problem starting up. I already replaced the timing belt too at 75k miles. Maybe it might be the belt again or something else. I have no codes.
Get a BMW, better quality.
But it has the CVT! I thought you hated that transmission!

I just found out that the ECU/PCM in my 2006 Kia Rio has an issue causing it to not communicate with any scan tool. It also idles rough and sometimes it will intermittently shutdown and refuse to start back up until I pull the battery and reset the computer. It possible that I can buy a used ECU/PCM from EBay and just plug and play? Or do I have to go to the KIA dealership and get the used computer programmed to operate correctly with the car?

Hey Scotty what do you think about a 2005 Chevy Malibu LS v6? Good car to keep or get rid of?
I have a 2003 Chevy Malibu and had a crank no start problem luckily it was a relay and a easy fix. Decent car, under 100,000 miles little issue here and there but overall an ok car.
After this recommendation and some of his others where he said previously not to buy they are endless money pits I will take what Scotty says with a grain of salt. Many times it depends on whether a vehicles has been properly maintained--not all GMs are junk especially my 99 S-10 that I had for 20 1/2 years. The difference is that I maintained my S-10 and I doubt a similar Tacoma would have done much better because I would have maintained it the same way. A poorly maintained vehicle is always going to be less reliable than a similar vehicle that has been well maintained.
Jeffrey Sproul I know a guy who’s fixing a 06 Tacoma and the rear end is stripped out cause it lost fluid somehow
No way in hell you have the 2.2l. Mine is awful.
@@barnes80 I had it for over 20 years and had no issues with it so there was a way in hell I had it. Changed the oil every 3k miles. I had to replace the water pump at 100k.

The Prius litterally is one of the only CVT cars that I've never herd have transmission issues
White Boy
That's because the Prius only uses a single-stage planetary gearset that doesnt really have any actuators.
*The Prius's 'CVT' is more like a complex differential than a real transmission*
Nissan has really poor quality my sisters 2017 Nissan Sentra transmission went out and my father in law 2016 Nissan Altima fuel pump went bad and his transmission is failing

@@vincentkosik403 This
@@MainMite06 Life time transmissions. Do not need to change fluid. Thats what the owners manual says. So thats the kind of car people what to buy?
Almost bought one like this a couple of years ago, it was for sale at a Chrysler dealer for a very cheap price so immediately became suspicious. Turns out it had been in a rear end accident which had been repaired but it was obvious whoever painted the bumper did not do a great job in matching the paint. Even so it seemed like an OK deal but because it had the CVT I decided to walk away. For a little more money bought a 2017 Elantra, 35,000 miles later and absolutely no problems, been a great car.
You can look up RUclips videos that show you how to change the CVT fluid, if you're very concerned about the reliability of it.

I have a 2020 Nissan Versa sr with 60k and I brought it new but I drive a lot and do doordash
Back in the day I had a 1968 Chevelle. You could almost climb into the engine compartment to work on it. 😁
Hey scotty, I have a 2007 ford expedition and sometimes when I take out the key the vehicle doesn't turn off so I leave it running and a little while later when I come back its turned off WHAT CAN IT BE!!!
Is the key real worn down? If so use the spare key. If it is worn down the ignition switch will not know key removed and gravity/temp can make it "fall" into place with time. If the worn key is not reason than it is your ignition switch.
@@nosoupforyou425 ok I will try and use he spare key
@@alfredolopez1396 feel your pain. Had an older tbird that did this. I thankfully was fixed with the spare key trick and sold it years later. Ignition switches are not that expensive if you have go that route - good luck
