New Car Inquiry - 2024 Sentra SV

Supposedly in 2020 Nissan came out with their 3rd generation Xtronic CVT. I have yet to hear of one failing, and I have asked around, including here and on a Nissan centric board - albeit one not focused on small cars. Granted its a very, very small sample.
I am a big Nissan fan (at their peak). I would be tepid to buy a new one due mostly to their current financial situation. I have to believe a Sentra that is a couple years old might be a good deal however.

You missed the satire.
Same here. VG30E days. I liked most of their late 90s cars.
I did. I'm usually slow on the uptake for humor. I wish AI could color code humor for me.
Corolla or a Mazda 3 are the only cars I would consider. Even if it had to be a year or two old. Wouldn't a Nissan or a VW with a ten-foot pole

I don't know how it works on this vehicle, but some Ford escapes have the same belly pain issue, but there is an aftermarket upgraded (plastic) pan available that has a removable spot for oil changes that makes it much easier.
I agree. Cut a hole, make your own cover.
Or do what will eventually happen anyway - take it off and throw it away.
Watch the youtube video in post entry #18 of this thread, shows exactly how it works. As for the suggestion(s) cutting an opening or opening in the shield, air getting up in those openings causing flapping of the shield at speed needs to consider. I've even read some trying zip ties to hold cutout openings in place to reuse.
Ideally, like your Escape example, some aftermarket maker would come out with a more user-friendly replacement. But, they would need to bring it in for a reasonable price.
A well maintained Sentra will last as long as you can stand it. Especially a manual. They are everywhere in Mexico where the roads try to beat you to death.
I was implying that if there was an aftermarket solution available for one vehicle, it sems likely to be available for others. I would never cut a hole one myself.

Didn't mean to imply the you specifically would cut a hole, mostly responding to reading other comments suggesting that as an option. As for an "aftermarket solution" to the Nissan shield, to this point I've seen none. And the remove it all shield design been around now for at least 4 years. Seen mention of it as a potential solution in youtube comments, but not one pointing to a product. So 'afaik', unlike the linked Escape, nothing comparable for the Senta or Rogue for that matter.

I think the B13 Sentra was made until like 2015 or so in Mexico. I'd hope they can last 10 years in a salt free climate
2017. Was called the Tsuru there. Was the top selling car in Mexico for ages.I think the B13 Sentra was made until like 2015 or so in Mexico. I'd hope they can last 10 years in a salt free climate
Statistically speaking, Corolla would last at least 1 year and 21k miles longer than a similar priced Sentra, so I wouldn't be worried about buying a year and 21k older for the same price.
I'd look for a Corolla. I was obligated to say that. I have owned a 1988 and 1991 Sentra, both really good cars, not sure if the new ones are going to be as reliable.
Corolla also has a CVT. If you like Toyota, you may as well get a Camry that has a normal automatic transmission.
