Nissan Rogue. Manual - part 1167

TM-40

< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >

[CVT: RE0F10D]

SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION

Based on accelerator pedal angle, engine speed, primary pulley speed, and the input speed, the optimum

operating pressure is set to reduce impact of a selector lever operation while shifting from “N” (“P”) to “D” (“R”)

position.

LOCK-UP CONTROL
LOCK-UP CONTROL : System Description

INFOID:0000000011279277

SYSTEM DIAGRAM

DESCRIPTION

• Controls for improvement of the transmission efficiency by engaging the torque converter clutch in the

torque converter and eliminating slip of the converter. Achieves comfortable driving with slip control of the

torque converter clutch. 

• The oil pressure feed circuit for the torque converter clutch piston chamber is connected to the torque con-

verter clutch control valve. The torque converter clutch control valve is switched by the torque converter

clutch solenoid valve with the signal from TCM. This controls the oil pressure circuit, which is supplied to the

torque converter clutch piston chamber, to the release side or engagement side. 

• If the CVT fluid temperature is low or the vehicle is in fail-safe mode due to malfunction, lock-up control is

prohibited. 

Lock-up engagement 

In lock-up engagement, the torque converter clutch solenoid valve makes the torque converter clutch control

valve locked up to generate the lock-up apply pressure. This pushes the torque converter clutch piston for

engagement. 

Lock-up release condition 

In lock-up release, the torque converter clutch solenoid valve makes the torque converter clutch control valve

non-locked up to drain the lock-up apply pressure. This does not engage the torque converter clutch piston.

SPORT MODE CONTROL : System Description

INFOID:0000000011279278

SYSTEM DIAGRAM

DESCRIPTION

• For a sporty driving on winding roads, establishing sport mode allows the driver to perform a sporty driving

different from normal driving performed in D position.

• If overdrive control switch is operated during SPORT mode ON condition, overdrive control operation will

take priority.

Sport Mode Function

High Gear Ratio Limit

• Engine speed is kept higher than at D position driving, which helps to operate a “sporty” driving.

SYSTEM

Step Shift

• Pressing down the accelerator pedal allows to drive the vehicle

with a feeling of A/T-like gear shifting.

Braking Down Shift

• At a moderate braking operation before corner etc., the engine speed increases according to the decelera-

tion and the transmission shifts down automatically, in order to optimize the response at reacceleration while

providing an adequate engine braking.

Acceleration Off Ratio Hold

• When the vehicle is decelerated by quickly releasing the foot from accelerator pedal, transmission does not

shift up automatically to keep a constant gear ratio, holding the high engine speed.

When the vehicle is decelerated (by accelerator pedal OFF) in upper area of double line in below chart, the

engine speed shows a characteristic like “A”.

On the other hand, when the vehicle is decelerated (by accelerator pedal OFF) in lower area of double line in

below chart, the engine speed shows a characteristic like “B”.

Fail-Safe

If a malfunction occurs in CVT system during SPORT mode ON, SPORT mode indicator extinguishes and the

vehicle returns to standard D position driving.

ECO MODE SYSTEM
ECO MODE SYSTEM : System Description

INFOID:0000000011545133

• Driving mode that selects the shift schedule with priority on fuel economy which gives low engine revolution.

• For details on ECO mode control, refer to 

DMS-23, "ECO MODE CONTROL : System Description"

.

FAIL-SAFE

If a malfunction occurs in the system of CVT during ECO mode, the ECO mode indicator lamp turns OFF and

the control switches to the normal mode control.
