CVT fluid change would be something like ATF change. Besides that, i think the CVT drive belting would have certain lifespan. I think its best you check with the dealer.

If buying new, then follow manufacturer service schedule......Just be careful of the lube. CVT must use CVT lube, not ATF.... smile_tongue.gif

not fond of CVT...bad experience with the one in honda CT...not as lasting or trouble free as normal autobox...even if you follow the maintenance schedule, the CVT chain has a lifespan..not sure how long....but its not cheap 2 replace/repair...

I have the answer but I'm still thinking whether or not to give him the answer. Maybe I'll just let others do it.
