Nissan Sentra 2.0L MR20 CVT Transmission for Sale (JDM, 2007 to 2012)

Looking for a Nissan Sentra transmission that actually holds up? This is a JDM MR20DE 2.0L CVT unit pulled from a low-mileage Japanese market Sentra, and it's built for the 2007 to 2012 model years. It comes tested and ready to install, so you're not taking a chance on a rebuilt core or a junkyard pull with unknown history.

What You're Getting with This MR20 CVT

This unit has roughly 57,000 miles, which is low for a transmission this age. It's a complete assembly, and you'll reuse the sensors from your original transmission during install. We also recommend replacing the torque converter seal before you bolt it in. That one step alone prevents a lot of comeback issues.

Before you order, double-check your VIN against these years. Sentra transmissions changed enough between generations that a wrong year can mean a no-fit situation, and returns on freight items get expensive fast.

Why Nissan Sentra CVTs Fail in the First Place

Most Sentra owners searching for a replacement have already dealt with shuddering, slipping, or a transmission that won't hold gear ratio under load. This is often called judder, and it's a known weak point on these Jatco RE0F CVTs.

Overheating and skipped fluid changes are usually the root cause, not a design flaw you can't work around. That's exactly why a low-mileage unit like this one is worth the investment over a rebuild. For a deeper breakdown of common failure points, our guide on Nissan CVT transmission problems covers what to watch for after the swap too.

Install Notes: Fluid and Relearn

Use Nissan CVT fluid (NS 2 or NS 3, depending on your exact build) and don't substitute a generic CVT fluid. It's not interchangeable in the way regular ATF sometimes is. After install, most Sentras need a CVT relearn procedure so the transmission control module adapts to the new unit properly. Skipping this step is one of the most common reasons a good used transmission gets blamed for a bad shift pattern.

Warranty and Shipping

Every unit ships with up to a 90-day warranty, and orders placed before 1 pm Eastern go out same day. We ship to all 48 lower states, though residential deliveries in certain areas carry a liftgate surcharge. If you're outside the lower 48, reach out before ordering to confirm freight options.

Not Sure a CVT Is the Right Call?

CVTs get a mixed reputation, and honestly, some of that is earned. If you're weighing whether to repair, replace, or move to something else entirely, our post on whether CVT transmissions are reliable walks through the tradeoffs in plain terms.
