About this product

If an early JF011E CVT in a 2007-2011 Nissan Altima, Sentra or Rogue, a Dodge Caliber, a Jeep Compass or Patriot, or a Mitsubishi Outlander or Lancer has started taking a long time to move after you select Drive or Reverse, slips on takeoff, or leaves dark, burnt-smelling fluid on the dipstick rag, the unit is usually headed for a teardown. This banner rebuild kit is cataloged for the 2007-2011 JF011E and supplies the soft parts that a standard overhaul replaces: the gasket and seal set, new friction plates and a filter. It is the middle option between a basic overhaul gasket set and a master kit with steels and bushings.

What a banner rebuild kit does in a JF011E

The JF011E is a belt-and-pulley CVT with a torque converter in front. Ahead of the pulleys sits a planetary set with a forward clutch and a reverse clutch; those two packs only choose direction, while the primary and secondary pulleys provide the ratio. Because the converter handles the stop, the direction clutches stay applied at a standstill instead of slipping like a start clutch. That means the frictions in this kit carry every launch, and when they glaze or their piston seals leak, you feel it as a soft or late engagement and a flare on takeoff. The seal side of the kit reseals the clutch pistons, the pump and the case so the high pulley pressures this design runs on stay where they belong.

Symptoms that call for a banner-level rebuild

How to confirm the direction clutches are the problem

Do not condemn the clutches on engagement time alone. Nissan has a bulletin (NTB10-147) stating that a short delay into gear is normal on this transmission, and the lock-up select solenoid and select control valve in the valve body decide how fast the forward or reverse clutch gets pressure. The case has pressure taps for the forward and reverse clutches, both pulleys and line pressure, so a gauge or transducer check shows whether the clutch circuit is getting commanded pressure. Correct pressure with a slipping launch points to the packs and their seals. Low pressure points to the valve body first, and a RE0F10A valve body may be the cheaper fix. Our CVT harsh or delayed shifts walkthrough and the Jatco CVT Nissan problems and fixes guide lay out that order of testing.

Fitment

This listing is for the JF011E (also cataloged as RE0F10A in Nissan and F1C1A in Mitsubishi) in 2007-2011 vehicles. The same transmission went into Nissan, Dodge, Jeep and Mitsubishi models, and kit contents can shift between early and late production, so match the year of your unit rather than the year of the badge alone. If your build date is on the edge of that range, or you are not sure which CVT is in the car, send us the year and VIN before you order and we will confirm it. The V6 Murano and Maxima use a different, larger Jatco CVT and are not covered by a JF011E kit. You can compare every JF011E part we carry on the CVT transmission parts page.

Install notes

If the pan shows steel hair from pulley bearing wear, step up to a hard-parts package such as the JF011E pulley bearing kit while the unit is open.

JF011E Banner Rebuild Kit 2007-2011: common questions

Which vehicles does the 2007-2011 JF011E banner kit fit?

It is listed for the JF011E CVT in 2007-2011 production, which includes four-cylinder Nissan Altima, Sentra and Rogue models, the Dodge Caliber, Jeep Compass and Patriot, and the Mitsubishi Outlander and Lancer. Send us your year and VIN if your build date is near the edge of that range.

What is the difference between a banner kit and a master kit?

A banner kit adds new friction plates and a filter to the gasket and seal set. A master kit usually goes further with steels and bushings. Pick the banner kit when the steels and bushings in your unit measure good.

Is a delay going into Drive normal on a JF011E?

A short delay of a couple of seconds is normal and is covered by a Nissan bulletin. A delay well past that, or slipping after it engages, is when a pressure test and a rebuild come into play.

What fluid should I use after the rebuild?

Nissan NS-2 CVT fluid in Nissan applications. Dodge, Jeep and Mitsubishi vehicles call for their own CVT fluid, so follow the owner's manual. Generic ATF will damage the belt and pulleys.

Do I need a relearn after installing the kit?

Yes. Clear codes, reset the fluid deterioration counter on vehicles that track it, and drive a relearn cycle so the TCM adapts to the new clutches before you road test.
