problem #1

Apr 252026

K4 LX 2L

  • CVT transmission
  • 10,168 miles

Engine Light came on so I sent it to the dealership I bought it from. They reported back an issue with Transmission Pressure and said the pressure was high from factory. They tried to solve by lowering the transmission pressure but something else must have come up because they said they needed to replace the whole transmission.

I bought this pre-owned at 9,900ish miles. So its a huge surprise there was an issue this early. I'm glad I'm still covered under the subsequent owner factory warranty for awhile.

The vehicle hasn't come back from the shop. I'll make a new post if there is an issue with the new transmission.
