P17F0 on Nissan
Nissan: CVT judder detected, transmission (T/M) inspection needed
Severity: Inspect soon
Nissan sets P17F0 when it detects CVT judder, and trade sources link it to belt slip inside the transmission. The car usually still drives, but the judder and slip can worsen, so get it inspected soon.
It gets more serious if:
- Not verified: The transmission goes into limp-home mode (stuck in one gear, little power) or will not shift. Regulations require the light in limp-home mode, but we found no source saying whether you must stop
