JF016E Solenoid Kit, new and ready to install. Fits the JF016E. Ships fast from the USA.
This JF016E solenoid kit is the factory answer to a 4-cylinder Nissan CVT that judders, flares, drops into limp mode or keeps storing pressure and solenoid codes. It is a new, genuine Nissan control valve for the RE0F10D, Nissan's name for the Jatco JF016E, supplied with its solenoids already fitted and carrying OE part number 3170E-28X0B. The compatibility data for this part runs from the 2013 Altima 2.5 through the 2014-2018 Rogue, 2017-2018 Rogue Sport, 2017-2018 Sentra SR Turbo and Nismo, and the 2014-2019 NV200. If you have been pricing a used transmission for one of those vehicles, a fresh valve body is often the repair that comes first.
The JF016E has no gears to shift. Ratio is set by squeezing a steel push belt between a primary and a secondary pulley, and the control valve decides how hard each pulley clamps. Its linear solenoids set line pressure, primary pulley pressure and secondary pulley pressure, a select solenoid applies the forward clutch and reverse brake, and a pulse-width solenoid controls torque converter lockup slip. Two pressure sensors on the valve body report back to the TCM. When a solenoid sticks or the aluminum bores behind it wear, the pulley pressure the TCM asks for is not the pressure it gets, and the computer reads that as slip or judder. Because this assembly replaces the solenoids and the valves they work against at the same time, it addresses both halves of that problem, which loose solenoids alone cannot.
Scan the TCM, not only the engine computer. Nissan bulletin NTB15-084b for the 2013-2016 Altima 4-cylinder and 2014-2016 Rogue lays out the logic: with judder reported, P17F1 means remove the valve body, inspect the belt through the opening, and replace the valve body if the belt checks out; P17F0 points to the belt and pulleys and to a transmission replacement. Check the fluid as well. Dark, burnt fluid with fine metal is a sign the belt has already slipped. Our Jatco CVT Nissan problems and fixes guide covers judder, overheating and fluid service on these Nissans, and the CVT limp mode guide explains how to separate a circuit fault from real slip.
This is the 4-cylinder JF016E part. It does not fit the 3.5L V6 Altima, Pathfinder, Murano or QX60, which use the chain-driven JF017E, and it does not fit the 2013 Rogue or the 2014-2015 Rogue Select, which carry the older JF011E. Nissan revised the RE0F10D control valve over its run, so compare the OE number 3170E-28X0B and the connector on your old unit with this listing, or send us your year and VIN and we will confirm before it ships. Every JF016E and JF017E part we carry is on the CVT transmission parts page.
The valve body comes out through the oil pan opening. Nissan marks the bolts that hold it with a number 7 on the head; leave every other bolt in place. Fit a new oil strainer and pan gasket when the valve body is replaced, keep dirt and any fluid other than Nissan NS-3 CVT fluid out of the case, and refill with NS-3 to the level procedure in the service manual. A genuine replacement valve body carries its own calibration data on a QR label, and that data has to be written to the TCM with a Nissan-capable scan tool before the transmission will shift correctly; then erase the codes. If lockup chatter was the main complaint, a JF016E TCC solenoid is a cheaper first check, and if the fluid showed friction debris, plan on a JF016E overhaul kit instead of a valve body alone.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
It is a complete new genuine Nissan control valve for the RE0F10D (JF016E) with the solenoids already installed, OE number 3170E-28X0B. You bolt in one assembly instead of swapping coils into a worn casting.
No. Those use the older JF011E transmission. This part is for the JF016E behind the 2.5L in the 2014-2018 Rogue and the 2013-2018 Altima 4-cylinder, plus the 2.0L Rogue Sport and NV200 and the 1.6L turbo Sentra listed in its fitment.
No. The 3.5L V6 models use the chain-driven JF017E, which needs its own valve body. Send us your year and VIN if you are unsure which unit you have.
Yes. Nissan requires the new valve body's calibration data, supplied on its QR label, to be written to the TCM with a Nissan-capable scan tool. Skip that step and shift quality and judder codes can persist.
Nissan NS-3 CVT fluid. Nissan warns against letting any other fluid into the case, and the level must be set using the procedure and fluid temperature in the service manual.
Usually not. Under NTB15-084b, P17F0 with judder points to the belt and pulleys and calls for a transmission replacement, while P17F1 is the code that leads to a valve body replacement.
