I have been facing jerking for the last 6 months. I told this to my mechanic during periodic inspection. He scanned through ODB and found an error. Later, I got this inspected by more experienced guys and they told me that your valve body is definitely problematic and needs replacement. However, they wanted to check gear if it is ok or not. This is expected to cost US $3,000 if gear is ok. If gear is not ok, then cost can jump to US$4,000.

Jerking is quite noticeable during summers and when AC is turned on. However now when winter is approaching I do not feel much of it. Experienced guy has told me to get this fixed ASAP since I should not take the risk of driving the vehicle outside the city. (P.S. We routinely drive for more than 900KM twice in a year.) What do you guys suggest? Should I accept his suggestion and get it replaced or should adopt a different course of action which I do not know either. PF is out of warranty BTW.

when the vehicle driving between 15-25 mph slow moving traffic the vehicle is getting jerked,shuddering.Vehicle start moving from stop and stop to accelerate. After the first visit the dealer had confirmed a problem with the transmission.But needed a permission from the manufacturer.After two weeks I visited a dealer who said he had not received permission to repair from Nissan.After this time several times I visited a dealer informing about the problem of transmission,but suspiciously dealer does not confirm any problems.He said vehicle is operating as designed.Thank you for being so designed car.This is my third and certainly the last "nissan" Stanislaw West Babylon NY USA
