About this product

By 2013 the JF011E belt CVT, sold by Nissan as the RE0F10A, had been through several running changes, and the forward clutch drum was one of them. This remanufactured OEM drum is the late-production version, marked in the photo as the one-ID-groove 2013-up style. If you have a 2013 or later unit apart with a cracked, scored or leaking drum, or you are chasing a forward slip that came back after new frictions, this is the drum to compare against the one on your bench.

What the clutch drum does in the RE0F10A

There are no gear ratios to shift in this transmission. The pulleys and steel belt do all of that. Ahead of the pulleys sits a single planetary set that only decides direction: the forward clutch locks it for Drive and the reverse brake holds it for Reverse. This drum is the forward clutch housing. It turns with the input shaft, holds the friction and steel plates, contains the apply piston, and takes its apply oil through sealing rings riding on the shaft. Because the forward clutch stays applied the entire time the selector is in Drive, the drum is never off duty, and even a small leak at the piston or sealing rings turns into slip as soon as torque goes up.

Symptoms of a worn or damaged drum

How to confirm the drum before you buy

A short pause engaging Drive is normal on this CVT; the FenderBender write-up on the JF011E notes that Nissan bulletin NTB10-147 treats 2 to 3 seconds as acceptable. Longer than that, or slip under load, needs a pressure gauge. Sonnax shows a forward clutch pressure tap on the front of the case. If line pressure is correct but forward clutch pressure is low, the problem is in the select control and clutch reducing regulator valves or in the drum circuit itself. Sonnax lists those valve bores among the main wear points behind harsh and delayed engagement. Our CVT slipping under load guide walks through separating clutch slip from belt slip, and the Jatco CVT shop guide covers the rest of this family. With the unit apart, air check the drum: if it will not hold air with new seals, or you see cracks around the plate lugs, replace it.

Fitment

This listing is for 2013-up RE0F10A (JF011E) transmissions. The JF011E stayed in production after 2012 in vehicles such as the Mitsubishi Lancer, Outlander and Outlander Sport and the Jeep Compass and Patriot, while some Nissan models moved to newer CVT families around the same time, so read the transmission code on your unit before ordering. The drum years are identified by the shaft: this late style has one ID groove, the 2010-2012 drum has a smooth shaft, and the 2007-2009 drum has two grooves. Lay your old drum next to the photo. If the shaft does not match, do not install it; send us your year and VIN and we will confirm the correct part. Other parts for this unit are in our CVT parts collection.

RE0F10A Clutch Drum 2013: common questions

How do I tell the 2013-up drum from the earlier ones?

Look at the shaft. The late 2013-up drum has one ID groove, the 2010-2012 drum has a smooth shaft, and the 2007-2009 drum has two grooves. Match your old part to the photo before installing.

My vehicle is a 2013 Nissan. Is it an RE0F10A?

Not necessarily. Several Nissan models changed CVT families around 2013. Read the transmission code on the case tag or send us your year and VIN and we will check it for you.

Is slipping in Drive always a bad drum?

No. Low forward clutch pressure from worn select control or clutch reducing valve bores, a worn pump, or simply burnt frictions can feel the same. Pressure test first and inspect the drum on the bench.

Does the drum come with clutch plates?

No. It is the drum and shaft assembly shown. Install new frictions, steels, piston seals and sealing rings with it.

What fluid and setup does it need after installation?

Nissan NS-2 CVT fluid, with the level checked at operating temperature, followed by the scan tool learn procedure for your vehicle.
