JF011E Overhaul Kit 2006, new and ready to install. Fits the JF011E. Ships fast from the USA.
Owners and shops chasing a leaking or slow-to-engage JF011E from the first production run land on this listing: a new, sealed JF011E overhaul kit catalogued for 2006. The JF011E reached North American buyers as 2007 model year cars, including the Dodge Caliber and the Nissan Altima and Sentra, many of which were assembled during calendar 2006. This kit is meant for those early transmissions when they come apart for a reseal.
Unlike a stepped automatic, the JF011E uses hydraulic pressure for two jobs at once. Pressure in the primary and secondary pulley cylinders clamps the steel push belt and sets the ratio, and separate circuits apply the forward clutch and reverse brake in the planetary set ahead of the pulleys. An overhaul kit replaces the parts that hold that pressure in: piston seals, Teflon shaft rings, O-rings around the valve body and solenoid passages, and the case, side cover and pan gaskets. On an early unit that has seen fifteen-plus years of heat cycles, those rubber parts are often hard and undersized, and the result is leakage both outside and inside the case. The photo shows a sealed, factory-bagged kit; the listing does not itemize every piece, so if you need a specific seal or gasket confirmed before you order, ask us first.
On a JF011E this old, rule out the expensive failures before you invest in a teardown. Belt and pulley wear shows up as shudder and whine, worn pulley bearings make a road-speed howl and leave steel on the magnets, and step motor or valve body problems set ratio codes. Wayne Colonna's FenderBender article on the JF011E describes how worn pump flow control valves cause slip and delayed engagement, a fault new seals will not fix. Our CVT harsh and delayed shifts walkthrough and the CVT limp mode guide help separate a seal problem from a hard-parts problem.
This kit is listed for 2006 JF011E transmissions. Nissan badges the same unit RE0F10A and Mitsubishi calls its version F1CJA. Because early-production cases can differ from later ones in small ways, match the transmission tag, compare your old pan and side cover gaskets to the new ones, and send us your year and VIN if the vehicle is a 2007 model built in 2006 and you are unsure which kit applies. If your car is a later build, the JF011E overhaul kit for 2007-2019 may be the better match. All parts for this transmission are on our CVT parts page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Early JF011E units, most of which went into 2007 model year cars such as the Dodge Caliber and Nissan Altima and Sentra assembled during 2006. Confirm with your case tag or send us your VIN.
The photo shows a sealed, bagged overhaul kit, and the listing does not itemize every piece. Overhaul kits for this unit center on gaskets, seals, O-rings and sealing rings. Ask us if you need a specific piece confirmed.
Use this kit for early 2006-built units. If your transmission was built later, the 2007-2019 kit is usually the better fit. Your VIN tells us which.
It will when the delay comes from leaking piston seals or shaft rings. If the pump flow control valve or valve body bores are worn, those parts need attention too.
Nissan NS-2 CVT fluid in Nissan applications, or the CVT fluid the vehicle maker specifies for Dodge and Mitsubishi versions. Do not use regular ATF.
