The 2003 Nissan Altima is not equipped with a Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT). The transmission system plays a vital role in the vehicle's operation and it is prone to various issues over time. Problems like harsh shifting, jerking, gear sticking, shuddering, and delayed shifts can occur. Any leaks in the transmission fluid should be promptly addressed. Regular fluid changes are recommended every 30,000 to 60,000 miles to ensure smooth performance. Neglecting transmission maintenance can lead to unpleasant noises and a worn-out torque converter can be a major problem.
