2008-2012 ROGUE; REDUCED PERFORMANCE DUE TO
CVT FLUID TEMPERATURE PROTECTION LOGIC
This bulletin has been amended. A parts order form has been added. To address this change,
text has been added to ACTION and PARTS INFORMATION. Please discard all previous versions.
APPLIED VEHICLE: 2008-2012 Rogue (S35) 2WD/4WD without tow package kit
IF YOU CONFIRM:
The maximum vehicle speed is, or was, reduced by the CVT fail-safe logic after continuous
operation under the following conditions:
•
High RPM and/or high speed driving
(RPM of 4000+ or speeds of 65 mph [104.6 km/h] for 1.0 – 1.5 hrs. or more)
•
Driving in ambient temperature of 96 degrees or higher
•
Climbing steep or extended hills for 6 miles (9.6 km) or more
•
Whine or rattle type noise occurring during reduced engine performance (vehicle
speed decrease)
NOTE: Before applying this bulletin, check and repair any DTCs first.
ACTION:
Install SERVICE KIT-COOLER ASSY (see PARTS INFORMATION).
NOTE: This kit is on part restriction. Use the order form at the end of this
bulletin.
IMPORTANT: The purpose of ACTION (above) is to give you a quick idea of the work you will be performing.
You MUST closely follow the entire SERVICE PROCEDURE as it contains information that is essential to
successfully completing the repair.
Nissan Bulletins are intended for use by qualified technicians, not 'do-it-yourselfers'. Qualified technicians are
properly trained individuals who have the equipment, tools, safety instruction, and know-how to do a job
properly and safely. NOTE: If you believe that a described condition may apply to a particular vehicle, DO
NOT assume that it does. See your Nissan dealer to determine if this applies to your vehicle.

SERVICE PROCEDURE
Install Oil Cooler (CVT mounted heat exchanger with 4 ports)
1. Place the vehicle on a lift and raise
it as needed to perform the following
procedure.
Air inlet duct
2. Remove the front Bumper Fascia
Assembly, front Under Cover, left front
Fender Protector and left Air Guide.
•
Refer to the appropriate section of
the ESM for the procedures to
remove the items in step 2.
NOTE: The Air Guide is connected
to the Radiator core support with a
J-hook and must be lifted up before
being pulled forward to remove.

3. Remove the Air Inlet Duct from the Air
Cleaner Case.
WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. Serious burns may
occur from high-pressure engine coolant
escaping from the radiator.
4. Relieve any residual cooling system
pressure.
a. Wrap a thick cloth around the
radiator cap. Slowly turn it a quarter
of a turn to release the pressure.

2008-2012 ROGUE; REDUCED PERFORMANCE DUE TO CVT
FLUID TEMPERATURE PROTECTION LOGIC
This bulletin has been amended to remove the pre-authorization check sheet and to
add the procedure to check CVT temp count A/B. Please discard all previous versions.
APPLIED VEHICLE:
2008-2012 Rogue (S35) 2WD/4WD without tow package kit
IF YOU CONFIRM:
The vehicle speed is, or was, reduced by the CVT fail-safe (reduced vehicle speed) after
continuous operation under the following conditions:

High RPM and/or high speed driving
(RPM of 4000+ or speeds of 65 mph [104.6 km/h] for 1.0 – 1.5 hrs. or more)

Driving in ambient temperature of 96 degrees or higher

Climbing steep or extended hills for 6 miles (9.6 km) or more

Whine or rattle type noise occurring during reduced engine performance (vehicle
speed decrease)
NOTE: Before applying this bulletin check and repair any DTCs first.
ACTION
1. Perform a self-diagnosis with CONSULT-III plus (C-III plus).
 If DTCs are present, refer to the appropriate section of the Electronic Service
Manual (ESM) and diagnose the DTCs first before proceeding to step 2 of
ACTION.
2. Check the number of counts of "CVT-A” and “CVT-B" with C-III plus.
 Refer to the Flow Chart on page 2 and the Service Procedure starting on page 3
to confirm if this bulletin applies.
IMPORTANT: The purpose of “ACTION” (above) is to give you a quick idea of the work you will be
performing. You MUST closely follow the entire Service Procedure as it contains information that is essential
to successfully completing the repair.
Nissan Bulletins are intended for use by qualified technicians, not 'do-it-yourselfers'. Qualified technicians are
properly trained individuals who have the equipment, tools, safety instruction, and know-how to do a job
properly and safely. NOTE: If you believe that a described condition may apply to a particular vehicle, DO
NOT assume that it does. See your Nissan dealer to determine if this applies to your vehicle.

Flow Chart
Important
Before applying this bulletin:

Confirm that the CVT fluid has not been overfilled and/or that a non-approved
CVT fluid has been added.

Confirm that the coolant concentration is not greater than 50%.
 CVT fluid that is overfilled or non-approved, or coolant concentrations
greater than 50% can cause the symptoms in the IF YOU CONFIRM
section on page 1.
Refer to NTB12-057 to resolve these conditions first if they should
occur.
NOTE: Refer to the ESM for the correct CVT fluid and coolant type for the model and
year vehicle that is being worked on.
Check the CVT-A
and CVT-B counts
with C-III plus.

Is the CVT-A
count greater
than 1?
No
Refer to bulletin

2008-2012 ROGUE; REDUCED PERFORMANCE DUE TO CVT
FLUID TEMPERATURE PROTECTION LOGIC
APPLIED VEHICLE:
2008-2012 Rogue (S35) 2WD/4WD without tow package kit
IF YOU CONFIRM:
The maximum vehicle speed is, or was, reduced by the CVT fail-safe logic after continuous
operation under the following conditions:
•
High RPM and/or high speed driving
(RPM of 4000+ or speeds of 65 mph [104.6 km/h] for 1.0 – 1.5 hrs. or more)
•
Driving in ambient temperature of 96 degrees or higher
•
Climbing steep or extended hills for 6 miles (9.6 km) or more
•
Whine or rattle type noise occurring during reduced engine performance (vehicle
speed decrease)
NOTE: Before applying this bulletin check and repair any DTCs first.
ACTION:
Install SERVICE KIT-COOLER ASSY.
IMPORTANT: The purpose of “ACTION” (above) is to give you a quick idea of the work you will be
performing. You MUST closely follow the entire Service Procedure as it contains information that is essential
to successfully completing the repair.
Nissan Bulletins are intended for use by qualified technicians, not 'do-it-yourselfers'. Qualified technicians are
properly trained individuals who have the equipment, tools, safety instruction, and know-how to do a job
properly and safely. NOTE: If you believe that a described condition may apply to a particular vehicle, DO
NOT assume that it does. See your Nissan dealer to determine if this applies to your vehicle.

SERVICE PROCEDURE
Install Oil Cooler (CVT mounted heat exchanger with 4 ports)
1. Place the vehicle on a lift and raise it as
needed to perform the following
procedure.
Air Inlet Duct
2. Remove the front Bumper Fascia
Assembly, front Under Cover, left front
Fender Protector and left Air Guide.
•
Refer to the appropriate section of
the ESM for the procedures to
remove the items in step 2.
NOTE: The Air Guide is connected
to the Radiator core support with a
J-hook and must be lifted up before
being pulled forward to remove.
Left side Air Guide

Clamp coolant hoses
3. Remove the Air Inlet Duct from the Air
Cleaner Case.
WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap
when the engine is hot. Serious burns may
occur from high-pressure engine coolant
escaping from the radiator.
4. Relieve any residual cooling system
pressure.
a. Wrap a thick cloth around the
radiator cap. Slowly turn it a quarter
of a turn to release the pressure.
Figure 2
b. Then turn it all the way.
5. Clamp both of the coolant hoses
attached to the CVT Fluid Cooler to
prevent coolant loss.

Install the COOLER ASSY-AUTO TRANS (external air-to-ATF CVT cooler)
1. Remove the SEAL-LOWER and create a notch to clear new BRKT ASSY-O/COOLER,
LWR, and then re-install the SEAL-LOWER.
a. See Figure 10 for reference to locate the pre-existing weld nuts in the lower radiator
support that the BRKT ASSY-O/COOLER, LWR (No. 3), shown in Figure 11 and
Figure 12, will be attached to.
b. Place the BRKT ASSY-O/COOLER, LWR from the kit over the SEAL-LOWER and
mark “bracket width” where the material will be removed as shown in Figure 8 and
Figure 10.
c. Remove only enough material (Figure 9 and Figure 10) to allow the BRKT ASSYO/COOLER, LWR to be installed to the lower radiator support (approximately
127mm x 50.8mm [5” x 2”]).
o Remove gently to avoid cracking the material.
