Kizashi Club

Hello Kizashi Club,

I'm the new owner of Kizashi AWD with CVT for 3 weeks and absolutely love it. With just over 2000 km on it I"m very pleased how it rides.

However I noticed some "click noise" coming out somewhere from bottom of the car when i'm starting to drive off. It happens around 10km/h on the cold start and then disappears. I've read somewhere that the lock up clutch is engaging at 10 km/h but is it normal to hear it? I'm new to CVT transmissions and not used to how it sounds yet.

Other than that there is no problems at all.

I have the very same noise. The dealer tells me that is OK. I would like to from some others to see what they think.

Welcome to the Family!

I have that same problem but I am getting the CVT update on July 21 and will let you know if it still does that.
