Cube automatic transmission issues
Summary of the thread
A 2014 Nissan Cube diesel with 50,757 km is experiencing automatic transmission issues, including the engine warning light, emergency mode activation, slipping, rough shifting, and grinding noises. The initial suspicion was low gearbox oil, but further investigation revealed a defective transmission oil temperature sensor. Replacing the sensor and refilling the system resolved the issues.

Thanks, I appreciate the insight about the transmission oil temperature sensor. I've been focusing on the gearbox oil level so far. I haven't checked the sensor itself yet. Could you tell me more about your experience with the sensor and how it affected the transmission?

I didn't dive too deep myself, truth be told. Similar symptoms, though. Emergency mode, rough shifting. Sounded expensive. Bit the bullet and took mine straight to a workshop.

Thanks for sharing your experience. It helped a lot. I had a technician inspect the car, and they confirmed the transmission oil temperature sensor was defective. They replaced it and refilled the system, which fixed everything. The repair cost 365€.

I seem to recall experiencing similar issues with my Cube. The automatic transmission was acting erratically. Did you happen to check the sensor itself, or just focusing on the oil level?
