CVT Damage Causes and Prevention Measures
Understand behaviors that may cause CVT system damage and corresponding prevention methods
| Causes CVT Damage | Solution |
|---|---|
| Attempting to load the vehicle onto a truck bed or tall trailer in high gear. | Shift transmission to low gear during loading of the vehicle to prevent belt burning. |
| Starting out on a steep incline in high gear. | When starting out on steep inclines, use low gear. |
| Constant driving at low RPM, driving at just above clutch engagement RPM, or at low speed (approximately 3-6 mph [5-10 km/h]) in high gear. | Low gear is highly recommended for cooler CVT operating temperatures and longer component life. Drive at a higher speed or use low gear more frequently. |
| Insufficient warm-up of CVT exposed to low ambient temperatures | Warm the engine before driving, the CVT drive belt will become more flexible and prevent belt burning. |
| Slow throttle and easy CVT engagement. | Use the throttle with purpose and effectively for efficient CVT clutch engagement. |
| Towing/pushing at low RPM/low ground speed. | Use low gear only. |
| Utility use/plowing snow, dirt, etc. | Use low gear only. |
| Heavy vehicle load operating at low speed | Use low gear only. |
| Stuck in mud or snow. | Shift the transmission to low gear, and carefully use fast, aggressive throttle application to engage CVT. WARNING: Excessive throttle may cause loss of control and vehicle overturn. |
| Climbing over large objects from a stopped position. | Shift the transmission to low gear, and carefully use fast, brief, aggressive throttle application to engage the CVT. WARNING: Excessive throttle may cause loss of control and vehicle overturn. |
| Belt slipping from water or snow ingestion into the CVT system. | Drain the water from the CVT housing and dry the CVT if possible, or contact your dealer. |
