Im driving a preve yr2104 .was a 2nd hand buy a month ago.
Was on the way outstation doing 110-120kmh(first oustation drive)
Suddenly cvt warning light came on and loss of drive.pedal the throttle but no response.
Stop road side and off engine then after a half a minute start back and warning is off.continue drive then after a few minutes happened again.u turn back to kl.within road to uturn and back to kl happen a few more time.
Send to sc when arrive at kl.they plug in say its cvt oil temp. But say to do a cvt oil chg at next service.
But car is only 15k milage. Been using the car daily to work with 1hr plus jam and there is no issue before this.
Anyone have this happen before?
Usually what is the cause for the overheating of the oil?
Or could it be a sensor issue?

For me not yet have this problem. even occasionally the CVT gear icon came out. but only during at high speed. 160~180 above. consistently for 5 minutes or 10 minutes. but if coasting at 100~110. dont have. but even the gear icon is active. still can press the pedal. without any power loss.
check a few times in sc after they give back car. the signal gear light gone but after a while still came back.

i am using CFE version. is been 4 years and one month old now. mileage is at 124k
*
But what error is the cvt light indicating?
Sc cant find out?

If I am reading it correctly, you changed the hose last week. But after 1 week, the new hose showed problems again on Monday May 21st?

Changed the hose last week.no issue with the hose
But now have cvt warning light coming on when doing 100-120kmh at highway for 5 -10min drive.

Sc check says it cvt oil temp for the cvt warning light.says i need to chg the cvt oil.but car is only 15k mileage

another way, open engine bay, go capture a photo with your gearbox tag.. VT3+ is in blue colour, while VT3 and VT2 in red colour..

Im confused now.
I have the vacuum pump as posted
But i have a red tag on the gearbox.
So mine is vt3 or vt3+????

Also at the inner door frame on the driver side its stated as vt3
?????



I had a hid 4300k installed no issue with police or jpj been through each of the enforcer roadblock and followed behind a few police and jpj before as well.

To be safe just hide the ballast from view.

Still having issue with the cvt warning at high speed and no drive after warning on.anyone know of any such issue?
Read the punch rep reply bust seems its contradicting as they mention will never have high speed clutch overheat.

Been to sc and now are waiting for cvt temp sensor chg.
If anyone have above please do update here

Just to update the cvt warning at high speed could be due to cvt oil foaming and incorrect oil level.

Hi guys,

Need some help on the CVT warning below.

when the car hits 140km/h the CVT warning will light up but the car can still accelerate. just that i release accelerator and when speed drown below 140km/h the warning will go off. then if repeat the same thing happens again.

CVT warning code found out at SC is P0721 @ second pulley speed unplausible.
Tried searching it as well and its saying input / output sensor on the pulley and SC has changed the sensor but still the issue remain.

Any other user of cvt having this same issue and it has been month and still issue unsolved.

Pls help.

Thanks bro g00gles YYl, its not overheating . Its a pulley issue.
