How often should a CVT be serviced.
I have just purchased an ex Japan with 80,000Km with CVT and have heard everything from never to every 10,000 or you are in deep S.
Also is there anyone in Auckland that is certified to service CVT's.
Thanks,
Tony

You don’t say the make/model of vehicle you have purchased so it’s hard to give specific information.

The key is not to step outside the manufactures recommendations and stick with the genuine fluid if the trans oil was changed.

There are no transmission shops certified to service CVT's. Auckland Automatics in Onehunga are definitely worth a call.
