    Im gonna take your advice and try and source out a 2015 cvt, now to find a place thats willing to put it in if I need it lol

    OT, Fummins: Cold War Motors!

    My favourite YT channel. Those guys are hilarious AND interesting.

    I heard a make-fun-of-Ontario jab on it recently: "That's a worst case Ontario" (for scenario).

    "That's 15 mins from my place" ... I just assumed you knew them.

    I'm not 100% on their location, but that does sound familiar. Check it out - very entertaining: https://www.youtube.com/user/coldwarmotors/videos

    I'm assuming this cvt is having the same problem that the last 2 did. It has the same symptoms just not as bad yet. I can't get it to act up right now but haven't driven it out of the parking lot. I'm assuming the same input bearing is worn out. It'd be nice to know the actual cause. It sucks that a crappy $2 bearing can take out a transmission that cost's hundreds of thousands of cents.

    Planned obsolescence. Like Nickelback. Or Mike Myers' film career.
