I'd offer, that if changing the CVT fluid causes perceptible performance changes, then something is terribly wrong.
But specifically what is wrong is beyond me.
The first time I changed mine at 63000 km, car became much smoother.
The second time I change the fluid, it started to act weirdly noticeably! So, I cleared all the codes, cvt memories etc... and it has been good.
I am at 130000 km now and I feel it is acting a little strangely, but 8 think about it's CVT everyday so maybe it is in my head but usually I am correct with picking up these differences... Irrespective of this, I already had planned to change the fluid and I think I will do it tomorrow .. let's see how it reacts!
I have 7 days until the end of my 7 years warranty period! That's why I wanted to change the fluid to see if any surprises will be in the drained fluid!
