    Whole networks of rebuilt transmission dealers used to exist for the constant need to swap transmissions in older cars. 100k was about the limit for older transmissions as well.

    The fact people are complaining that CVT’s last only a 100k says how much the reliability windows has shifted.

      Ikr, people saying old cars were better are smoking crack. Cars back in the day started rusting after the 2nd or 3rd year of ownership and only had 5 digit odometers because most people got a new one when they got to around 70k.
