JF016E Valve Body 2020-2022, remanufactured and ready to install. Fits the JF016E. Ships fast from the USA.
Late-model Nissan owners searching for a JF016E valve body usually describe the same things: a shudder that shows up at 30 to 45 mph, a jerk as the car rolls to a stop, a hot-fluid warning on a long climb, or a check engine light with a converter or pressure code. This remanufactured valve body is listed for the final 2020-2022 years of the JF016E, Nissan code RE0F10D, and carries a one-year warranty.
The JF016E is the four-cylinder member of Jatco's large-belt CVT family. Its valve body takes oil from the pump and turns it into the controlled pressures the transmission needs: clamping force on the primary and secondary pulleys, the ratio change between them, forward and reverse engagement, and the apply and release of the torque converter clutch. Two circuits cause most trouble on these later units. The lock-up control plunger valve sets how firmly the converter clutch engages, and the torque converter lube regulator keeps cooling oil moving through the converter. When either bore wears, the TCM commands a pressure the hardware can no longer deliver.
Check the fluid level and condition first; incorrect fluid or a low level can produce shudder by itself. Then look at the pan magnet. Fine grey paste is normal, but chips or a heavy coat of steel points to belt, pulley or bearing damage beyond the valve body. If the fluid is healthy, a shop can vacuum-test the valve body at the published wear locations for this family to prove a worn lock-up or lube regulator bore before anything is replaced. Our CVT harsh or delayed engagement walkthrough covers the diagnostic sequence, and the CVT limp mode guide explains how to tell a hydraulic fault from a sensor or wiring problem.
This listing is for JF016E applications from the 2020 through 2022 model years. During this period Nissan redesigned several models and moved them to a newer generation CVT, so a 2020-2022 Nissan is not automatically a JF016E car. Read the transmission code on the case tag or have us decode your VIN before ordering. The JF016E is a four-cylinder transmission and is not interchangeable with the V6 JF017E. Late valve bodies also carry revised calibration, so match the casting numbers and connector on your original unit. If your vehicle is from 2017-2019, compare our JF016E valve body for 2017-2019. Everything we stock for this transmission family is in the CVT parts collection.
Drain the fluid and drop the pan with the vehicle level, and clean the pan and magnet thoroughly. Note how the internal harness is routed before unplugging it, and inspect the connectors and insulation; a damaged JF016E internal wiring harness will throw the same codes as a bad valve body. Torque the valve body bolts in the specified sequence, refill with Nissan NS-3 CVT fluid and set the level at operating temperature. Clear codes, reset the fluid degradation counter and run the TCM relearn followed by a road test that includes steady cruise so the converter clutch can adapt. If you find your old solenoids were weak or the car spent time in limp mode, a JF016E solenoid kit is worth having on hand, and a low pressure reading at the pump side calls for the JF016E oil pump assembly.

Doing this repair right usually means replacing these at the same time. Same transmission, ships together.
Not necessarily. Nissan moved several redesigned models to a newer CVT during 2020-2022. Check the transmission code on the case tag or send us your VIN so we can confirm before you order.
It is remanufactured and backed by a one-year warranty.
If the shudder comes from a worn lock-up control or converter lube regulator bore, yes. If the converter clutch has already been burnt by overheating, the converter may also need attention.
No. The V6 models use the JF017E, which takes a different valve body.
Genuine Nissan NS-3 CVT fluid. Set the level at the specified operating temperature.
Yes. Clear codes, reset the fluid degradation counter and run the TCM relearn, then road test at steady cruise so the converter clutch adapts.
