Full overhaul kit for the Nissan JF015E RE0F11A CVT7: friction plates, steels, oil filter, and the complete seal and gasket set to rebuild the unit on the bench.
If your Nissan Versa, Versa Note or 1.8L Sentra has started to slip, shudder off the line, or smell burnt after a long climb, and the CVT is already on the bench, this is the box of wear parts that closes it back up. It is a master rebuild kit for the Jatco JF015E, which Nissan catalogs as the RE0F11A and many shops simply call the CVT7. The kit carries friction plates, matching steel plates, a new oil filter, and the complete set of rubber seals, lip seals, gaskets and sealing rings for the unit.
The JF015E is not a pure belt-and-pulley CVT. Behind the variator sits a small two-speed planetary sub-gearbox that gives the unit a low range for launch and a high range for cruising, plus reverse. Those ranges are applied by multi-plate clutch packs, and the shift between low and high range happens while you drive. When the frictions in those packs glaze or the seals around their pistons harden, the sub-gearbox flares or bangs as it changes range and the computer reads it as slip. This kit renews every friction and steel in those packs and replaces every seal and ring that holds apply pressure, so the hydraulic side and the clutch side are both fresh at once. The bonded seals in this set are FKM/ACM rubber and the sealing rings are PEEK, materials picked for the heat a small CVT runs at.
A rebuild only makes sense once you know the variator is worth saving. Pull the pan and look at what is on the magnet: fine gray paste is normal break-in wear, but flakes of friction lining point to the sub-gearbox packs, and bright steel chunks point to the pulleys or bearings. The Gears Magazine bench article on this unit warns that the pump flow control valve and its bore wear early on every Jatco CVT, so check that bore before you blame the clutches. Our Jatco CVT Nissan problems and fixes guide walks the full diagnosis, and CVT slipping under load covers how to separate clutch slip from belt slip.
This listing is for the JF015E / RE0F11A in the Nissan Sentra 1.8L (2013-2016), the Versa and Versa Note 1.6L, the Nissan Sunny, the Chevrolet Spark 1.2L, and Suzuki and Mitsubishi models that share the same transaxle. Nissan used different CVTs across some nameplates, so read the transmission tag on the case and compare your old filter or seal set before ordering. If you are unsure, send us the year and VIN and we will check it. You can see every part we carry for these units on our CVT parts page.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
No. This version has frictions, steels, the filter, and the full seal, gasket and sealing ring set. If your pistons are cracked or the bonded lips are hard, look at the sibling kits that add a piston set.
The listing covers the Nissan Sentra 1.8L 2013-2016, Versa and Versa Note 1.6L, Nissan Sunny, Chevrolet Spark 1.2L, and Suzuki and Mitsubishi models that share the transaxle. Check the tag on your case to be sure.
Usually not by itself. A whine that rises with road speed normally comes from pulley bearings or the belt, which are not in this kit. Inspect them during the teardown and replace them if they are rough.
Nissan NS-3 CVT fluid. Soak the frictions in it before assembly and check the level at the temperature the service information calls for.
Yes. Run the TCM resets and the Clutch Point Relearn drive cycle with a scan tool that supports Nissan CVTs, or the unit can surge and flare on the low-to-high range change.
