So they finally put a regular transmission in...and counter that with a variable compression ratio engine. So close to me looking at them as an option again. Thank you. These reviews are the best.

@rightlanehog3151

AMD, They went from Continuously Variable Transmission to Continuously Variable Engine. 😝

@jimharrington7532

Your reviews are always very in -depth and done with such a great deal of mechanical knowledge. Awesome Job

@dperez22

Please, start the cars to see vibration and the sound that makes

@ironrain1x

Nissan has a business model called contiously variable spending.  You could spend a little or a lot to keep it on the road.  It used to be called reliability issues.

An interesting anecdote to the driveshaft… more than a decade ago I fell in love with a rather maintenance intensive Jaguar XJ 12. Once I replaced the center support bracket of the driveshaft and some exhaust pipe and muffler work. Put it back together absolutely straight and experienced some resonance vibrations around 90-120 km/h under minimal load….. that drove me nuts and after checking everything again I found out it was the driveshaft center bearing that had to be mounted in a slight angle ( according to the old mounting marks ) probably to have a minimum constant side load and therefore avoid subtle movements from one side to the other during changing loads when you lift the throttle

@junebugbaker

nice review! Hope you get your hands on one of the new Tiguans soon.

@Mo.Jo.

@21:03 That's what i said - they finally get rid of the JATCO CVT and put in a good transmission - BUT THEN THEY TAKE AWAY A RELIABLE V6 AND PUT IN A CRAPPY 4 POPPER!
It's like they just cant help themselves to get better!

@pauliek5325

Test drove it. SL trim aurora blue. Wife absolutely loved it. Tried to make a deal with local Nissan but wouldnt budge as much as I wanted to.  Next day called some dealers within 300 mile radius and bought it. MSRP 49140 - dealer took almost 8 grand off + 1000 rebate.  Final sales price 40200 + 700 doc fee + 300 in other fees + 3900 taxes  500 delivery fee - 300 miles away. Everything 45000 out the door and delivered SL trim in Aurora Blue. Wish they did a Hybrid but you cant touch a mid size 2 row for under 50k except a crown signia and wife didt like as it was too low like a car. Special shout out to Tomi who runs  a car buying service called Delivred for showing people how to negotiate. He is here on YT and a fun watch as he calls dealers live.

@trenton737

Everyone I know with a Murano LOVES their Murano.

@noodlehat3250

I've seen about a dozen reviews on the new Murano, and no one has mentioned anything about excessive engine vibration

@aithris8567

That little hood over screen keeps out the glare NICE

@Cocora22

Your reviews are ALWAYS fantastic. I would never buy this vehicle but if I did  the vibrations would drive me insane. They have always been my pet peeves in any vehicle I  have owned and if they are present before you even put miles on it people will most definitely appreciate you making them aware of that. What a shame in an otherwise nice car.

@MrHugemoth

Vibrating seats not needed with an engine that vibrates so much.

@markj9544

We pulled the trigger and bought the 2024 model with the V6. The CVT seems fine and will keep it maintained and just change the fluids.

@lalajee143

Good to see you AMD. ❤

@kenty6973

A variable compression engine + Renault electronics will make this new Murano a rental choice again.

@2269tah

I was all keen on this new Murano when I heard they were ditching the CVT in favor of the 9 speed transmission. Then they went and screwed around with the engine taking out a very good VQ35 engine and putting in its place..... JUNK!

@WolfDog2593

I've always liked the Murano but never had one because of that CVT. When I heard the new one wouldn't have it anymore I thought it might finally be time to get one, but now this engine. Why couldn't they put the Frontier's V6 in it?? I swear, it seems like Nissan always has to do ONE thing to shoot themselves in the foot. 🤦‍♂️
