Juke Transmission Emergency Mode

I'm tearing my hair out. My 2022 Nissan Juke hybrid is throwing a fit. Got about 153000 km on it. The transmission indicator light and check engine light are both on, and the automatic transmission is stuck in emergency mode. It's shifting like a bag of hammers – slipping, shifting uncleanly, and making some awful grinding noises when it does manage to change gears. I scanned it, and it's throwing a radiator oil pressure defective code. I've checked the obvious stuff, like coolant levels, but I suspect it's a bad connection somewhere, maybe a cable or plug. Anyone else seen anything like this? Is it the beginning of the end for my beloved Juke?

Summary of the thread

A 2022 Nissan Juke hybrid with 153,000 km is experiencing transmission issues, indicated by warning lights and the transmission being stuck in emergency mode, accompanied by slipping and grinding noises. The problem is linked to a radiator oil pressure defective code, suggesting a potential bad connection, possibly a cable or plug. The solution involved identifying and fixing a faulty plug connection on the radiator oil pressure sensor, resolving the issue and restoring normal operation.

Whoa, sounds rough! I've got a Juke too, though I’ve dodged that exact bullet so far. That radiator oil pressure thing is interesting. When mine had some weird transmission issues (not quite the same as yours, but similar vibes), it turned out to be a small leak messing with the whole cooling system and radiator coolant. Have you checked for any signs of leaks around the radiator or oil cooler? It might be worth a look before you go too deep.

Good shout on the leak detection. I’ll definitely give it a good once-over, but where exactly should I be looking? Any specific areas on the radiator or oil cooler that are more prone to leaking? And when you had your issue, did it throw any similar codes or put the transmission into emergency mode? Trying to gauge if we're dealing with the same gremlins here.

Yeah, mine threw a hissy fit and went into limp mode. As for leak spots, check the seams where the radiator core meets the end tanks, and definitely inspect the connections to the oil cooler – those are usually the weakest points. Honestly, with the grinding noises and the emergency mode, it sounds like you're past the point of a quick fix. I'd bite the bullet and get it to a workshop.

Appreciate the advice! You were spot-on. Took it to my usual guys, and they found a dodgy plug connection on the radiator oil pressure sensor. 95€ later (for the broken cable) and it's purring like a kitten again. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
