Do hybrids cost more to repair?

Does it cost more to maintain a hybrid car than a conventional gasoline-fueled car? The answer is no -- unless it breaks down, of course. Normally, routine maintenance and minor repairs are no higher on a hybrid than on a regular car. In fact, they may actually be lower.Are hybrid car maintenance costs higher? | HowStuffWorks

CVT OIL LEAK DIAGNOSIS USING FLORESCENT DYE

APPLIED TRANSMISSION: Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)

SERVICE INFORMATION

If you have a CVT that appears to have oil seepage or a leak on the transmission, follow the steps below to assist in a correct diagnosis.

1. Thoroughly clean off the area of the suspected leak.

2. Install 1 fluid ounce of J-28431 Fluorescent Oil Dye* into the CVT.

3. Drive vehicle for a minimum of 30 minutes (to ensure proper diagnosis).

4. Inspect with lamp from J-43926 A/C Dye Kit*

If no fluorescent oil trace/leak is found, the stain is probably:

^ corrosion protection chemicals sprayed on the transmission

and/or

^ lubricants which are sometimes used to ease the assembly process.

NOTE:

These may cause dust to accumulate (gather) on the transmission and have the appearance of an oil leak. Neither of these requires corrective action.

If a fluorescent oil trace/leak is found:

^ Repair using standard warranty procedures.

*These tools were made Essential in 2001 (J-28431) and 1999 (J-43926). They are also available from Tech Mate.

NOTE:

The Fluorescent Oil Dye is also available from Tech Mate in a pack of six 1 ounce bottles. That pack is available as part number J-28431-6.

PREMIUM NAVI / AUDIO VISUAL CONTROL UNIT DIAGNOSIS AND ORDERING

This bulletin has been amended by adding to the APPLIED VEHICLES list, and the procedure to obtain the A/V unit part number. Please discard all

previous versions of this bulletin.

APPLIED VEHICLES

SERVICE INFORMATION

To improve customer satisfaction by providing the correct repair on the first visit, Nissan has revised the procedure for ordering an "exchange" or

"new" Audio Visual (A/V) Control Unit for vehicles with the premium navigation systems only (Refer to PROCEDURE).

^ To ensure a proper diagnosis and repair, the technician will need to call TECH LINE to confirm (or assist with) their diagnosis and the proper

repair prior to ordering the unit.

^ Clarion will require a confirmation from TECH LINE prior to shipping the exchange unit orders.

^ For the premium navigation system only.

^ Parts will be put on parts restriction and will need to be cleared prior to the order shipping.

^ The warranty claims call center will verify that TECH LINE has recommended replacement as part of the approval process in the event that a new

unit is required.

> TECH LINE has the support of engineering and Clarion in diagnosis if required.

NOTE:

All other A/V units will be ordered and shipped through the normal process.

> As usual, most units ordered should be an exchange unit versus a new unit.

This requirement of calling TECH LINE for confirmation to replace an A/V unit will be monitored to ensure the most effective and accurate method

of repair. Future changes or adjustments may be made to this process to increase repair timeliness and/or customer satisfaction.

A NEW UNIT IS REQUIRED ONLY IF:

^ The vehicle has not yet been sold.

^ The customer requests a new unit on a non-warranty repair.

^ The exchange unit is not available.

^ Insurance claim replacement.

NOTE:

Nissan would also recommend that this procedure is used for non-warranty repairs to ensure that a proper diagnosis and repair are performed.

PROCEDURE

a. Verify and duplicate the customers concern if possible. If duplication is not possible, please gather as much information about the incident

as possible from the service advisor/writer or customer.

b. Check for any connected devices (phone, iPod, MP3 player, etc.) or determine if a connected device is present during the concern. Please

gather model and software version information if possible.

c. Perform NTB09-063 for any Bluetooth concerns and NTB11-096 for any iPod / iPhone music play through USB concerns.
