it was discussed about Rogue here:

> The Nissan CVT transmission has been known to have trouble since at least 2008. Nissan is recommended to us that we had an external cooler. Does anyone know if this external cooler was part of the Nissan Rogue CVT transmission prior to 2013 or is this a new fix

AFAIK, Murano has similar issues, moreover, I’ve heard from the guy running transmission repair shop that Murano’s transmission is thermally overloaded in older models

I would strongly recommend using Nissan “premium” service schedule and replacing CVT fluid every 30K miles
