    I'd feel confident using one of those ones.
    I think the Aldon's one is my best bet- its close, basically new, and $1,000 plus tax

    Those are just the last digits from my VIN, for sequential reference. But yeah, the build date is listed.

    I'm sure it's listed elsewhere- but what is the axle nut size?

    It's actually 32mm. It does have a 3 in it though.

    Have they improved the thrust washer in the new cvt's? I'm at 90k, thinking I may want to look at a new vehicle at 180k, if that's about all the miles cvt is good for. If it hasn't been improved, I won't buy another.

    Look at Fummins posts about his fleet. He's only had like 3 failures out of what? 40 vehicles? I believe he already has a few over 200k miles or closing in on it? I wonder how many Versa fleet mechanics can say this? 190k miles on any car is trade in time anyways for most lol. The 5speed guys on here dont worry about this. The vast majority of posters on here are manual owners, which is fine, but doesnt help CVT owners much. Lord Fummins is the definitive authority on the CVT versions on here. There is a Mitsu tech, Nickels, on here but he owns a manual version and rarely posts anything uplifting for us CVT owners to read, unless I missed a thread from him. I dunno? It would be helpful if he posted the % of Mirage owners he's dealt with premature CVT failure, at what miles it failed, why it failed etc. but the world is on fire right now so I dont blame him lol.

    Thanks Dirk, I feel better about the longevity of the trans now. Plus, I see they can be had on ebay in the $500 range. Low mileage ones, btw.
