Replying to: pitkeys (Aug 20, 2009 11:40 am) Thanks for the report, pitkeys. What you're finding seems in line w/ what I've read. I'm not a fan of the Conti Contacts--not a lot of tread out of the box--but they've worn ok. Granted, I rotate them regularly and make sure inflation is good, and drive pretty conservatively. I've got over 46K on them and I think they're good for a few more months, maybe even til the snow flies.

Replying to: hess5 (Aug 22, 2009 7:23 am) Hess, I have no such vibration from my cvt. However, the speed range 10-20 is problemmatic for this trans, in that whatever gearing ratios they chose make for a big drop in power right then. So when it shifts at 10 or 15, it feels like you let off the gas. To make up for it you have to gas it a bit, especially if you're merging into high-speed stuff.
#28 of 28 Rusted Rims by roguer1 Aug 27, 2009 (2:03 pm)
Has anyone else experienced rusting steel rims on a 2008 Rogue S? Nissan is refusing to replace saying it's not a warranty issue, but they will "paint" them, so something must be up.
