JF011E Valve Body, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the JF011E. Ships fast from the USA.
If your Altima, Rogue, Sentra, Murano, Juke, Dodge Caliber, Mitsubishi Outlander or Lancer is shifting harshly, flaring between ratios, hesitating off the line, or has thrown a pressure or shift-solenoid code, the JF011E valve body is one of the first places to look. This CVT shipped in these vehicles from 2007 through roughly 2016, and the valve body is almost always the part doing the damage when the belt and pulleys are still good but the shift feel has gone bad.
The JF011E valve body is the hydraulic brain of the transmission. Line pressure from the pump arrives at the valve body, and a set of precision bores and spool valves route that pressure to apply the forward clutch, the reverse brake, and the torque converter clutch, while a bank of shift and pressure-control solenoids let the TCM time every one of those events electronically. On this transmission the valve body also houses the ROM chip that stores calibration data matched to the TCM - a detail that matters if you are swapping units rather than just the valve body, since a mismatched ROM on a 2008 Dodge Caliber triggers a P167A calibration-mismatch code.
Pull the codes first. Pressure-control and shift-solenoid codes point at the valve body itself; ratio or step-motor codes can mean the valve body, the step motor, or the pulley/sensor assembly. Our JATCO CVT Nissan problems and fixes guide walks through separating a valve body fault from a belt or pulley fault on this family of transmissions, and our harsh or delayed shift diagnostic walkthrough covers the pressure-test sequence that confirms a valve body is the actual cause before you spend money on one.
This valve body fits the JF011E as built into 2007-2016 Nissan Altima, Rogue, Sentra, Murano and Juke, plus the Mitsubishi Outlander and Lancer and the Dodge Caliber, all sharing the JF011E/RE0F10A case. Jatco updated this valve body several times across the run, and the bolt pattern, connector, and ROM calibration are not interchangeable across every update. Confirm your casting number and connector style against your old unit, or send us your year, make, model and VIN and we will match the correct version. Browse the full CVT parts collection if you need to cross-check against a sibling version for a different year range.
Service writeups on this transmission note that removing and reinstalling the valve body without disconnecting the 22-pin case connector and internal harness is harder than pulling the harness clear first - unplug the ROM and main harness connector, then lift the valve body only after removing the single short bolt near the manual valve and the ten longer bolts around the outer perimeter. Mark and keep the original ROM with the vehicle unless you are also replacing the TCM, since Nissan and Mitsubishi require it to be reordered by VIN if lost. Change the fluid and filter at the same time you install the new valve body - debris from the old unit circulating through a fresh valve body is the most common reason a new-part repair comes back. Run Nissan NS-2 CVT fluid and complete the TCM relearn before road testing. Pair this job with a fresh JF011E solenoid kit if your old solenoids are original-mileage, and inspect the RE0F10A pump while the unit is open, since pump wear and valve body pressure complaints often show up together.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Yes, as long as your Sentra has the JF011E/RE0F10A CVT, which covers 2007-2012 Sentra models. Confirm the casting and connector against your old valve body since Jatco updated this unit more than once across the production run.
This listing is the valve body assembly itself. If your solenoids are original-mileage or you are seeing solenoid performance codes, add our JF011E solenoid kit alongside it rather than reusing worn solenoids on a fresh valve body.
Valve body problems tend to show up as harsh or flared shifts, torque converter clutch shudder, or a stored pressure/solenoid code with no abnormal noise. Belt and pulley wear usually adds a whine or shudder under load that persists even at steady throttle. Many JF011E units show both at once by the time they come in for repair.
Run the transmission relearn procedure after installation so the TCM re-learns the new valve body's pressure response. Keep your original ROM with the vehicle unless you are also swapping the TCM - a mismatched ROM throws a calibration code.
Use Nissan NS-2 CVT fluid. Running the wrong CVT fluid in this transmission is a common cause of repeat valve body and belt problems even after a correct parts replacement.
