Year charts sell parts and cause returns in equal measure. The JF016E is the clearest example on the JATCO side of the trade, because its production run is far longer than the catalogue windows most sellers list — the unit was still rolling onto new assembly lines in 2025, while plenty of catalogues stop listing it around 2017. This page is the chart we work from: every application with its years, the letter split between RE0F10D and RE0F10F, the JATCO spec-sheet numbers that prove one "JF016E" is not one transmission, and the model years where a Nissan quietly stopped being an RE0F10D at all.
What this page gives you
- The full application chart — Nissan, Mitsubishi and Renault, roughly 30 nameplates, with year windows and the code each market uses.
- The RE0F10D versus RE0F10F letter split, including where the trade sources disagree and what to do about it.
- JATCO's own spec-sheet numbers that show two cars can share the code and still not interchange — final drive 5.385 against 6.386, overall length 358.8 mm against 372.2 mm.
- The exit years: Rogue 2021, the 1.5T Rogue, and the cars that were never JF016E no matter what the listing says.
- The belt-versus-chain border against the JF017E, drawn by engine displacement and torque, not by badge.
01The one-line answer
If you only read one line: the JF016E ran from 2012 and never stopped — but the year on the windscreen is the weakest identifier on this platform. The Nissan service letter (RE0F10D or RE0F10F), the final drive ratio built into the diff, and the engine's torque demand are what actually pick the part. Read the code on the housing, photograph it, and the chart below turns into a confirmation instead of a bet.
Everything after this section exists to make that check take two minutes instead of two days.
02The full application chart, by make
Years below are the production windows the trade literature and JATCO's own technical reviews document for each nameplate. An open-ended year means the unit was still listed on that body at the time of writing — it does not promise every market kept it to the end, and it does not promise the car next to it on the lot did not move to a different CVT. That is what the housing code is for.
| Make | Model (generation / body) | Years documented | Engine / code notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nissan | Altima L33 | 2013–2018 | 2.5L four-cylinder, RE0F10D. The 3.5L V6 takes the RE0F10E (JF017E) — same body, different unit |
| Nissan | Altima L34 | 2019–2025 | 2.5L, RE0F10D continues — one of the longest single-code runs in the trade |
| Nissan | Rogue T32 | 2014–2020 | 2.5L, RE0F10D. The 2021 redesign left the code — see section 05 |
| Nissan | Rogue Sport | 2017–2022 | 2.0L, RE0F10D |
| Nissan | X-Trail T32 | 2013– | 2.0L / 2.5L; the trade ties the T32 to the RE0F10F letter — see section 03 |
| Nissan | Qashqai J11 | 2013– | 2.0L, pulley ratio 2.631–0.378, final drive 6.386 |
| Nissan | Sentra SR Turbo / Nismo B17 | 2016–2019 | 1.6L turbo, RE0F10D — while the 1.8L Sentra beside it on the lot runs the RE0F11A (JF015E) |
| Nissan | Sentra B18 | 2020–2025 | 2.0L, RE0F10D |
| Nissan | Juke F15 | 2014–2019 | 1.6L turbo — US sources conflict between RE0F10A and RE0F10D; confirm by tag |
| Nissan | Murano Z51 | 2013–2014 | The end of the Z51 run. The Z52 from 2015 moves to the RE0F10E |
| Nissan | Teana J32 / L33 | 2012–2013 / 2013–2020 | 2.5L; the RE0F10D letter is documented on the Teana L33 |
| Nissan | Serena C26 / C27 | 2012–2018 / 2016– | 2.0L MR20; the 2022 full-model-change Serena still takes a JF016E, revised — see section 08 |
| Nissan | Elgrand E52 | 2014– | 2.5L |
| Nissan | NV200 M20 | 2017– | Listed as JF016E from 2017 in some tables; the US-market 2.0L NV200 (2013–2021) is documented as RE0F10A (JF011E). Market split — confirm by code |
| Mitsubishi | Outlander GF / GN | 2014–2022 | 2.0L / 2.4L, code F1CJC (2WD) / W1CJC (4WD) |
| Mitsubishi | ASX (RVR / Outlander Sport) | 2014– | 2.0L, F1CJC / W1CJC |
| Mitsubishi | Eclipse Cross GK | 2017– | 1.5L turbo |
| Mitsubishi | Delica D:5 CV | 2013– | 2.0L / 2.4L, 4WD |
| Mitsubishi | Destinator | 2025– | 1.5L turbo, Indonesia — the newest documented fitment, proof the line is still open |
| Renault | Koleos HY / HC | 2013–2016 / 2016– | 2.0L / 2.5L, code FK0 / FR8 |
| Renault | Kadjar-architecture models / Arkana | 2019– | 1.3L turbo; also sold as Samsung XM3 in some markets |
| Renault | Duster HM | 2019– | 1.3L turbo, FK0 / FR8 |
| Renault | Kaptur H5 | 2020– | 1.3L turbo |
| Renault | Megane X95 / XFB | 2013–2016 / 2016–2020 | 1.3L / 1.6L |
| Renault | Scenic J95 | 2013–2016 | 1.6L |
| Renault | Fluence L38 | 2013–2016 | 2.0L |
| Renault | Clio X98 | 2012–2013 | Early CVT8 fitment, 0.9–1.2L class |
How the windows were built: nameplate lists compiled from JATCO's own technical review papers (the Serena and Destinator introductions), the application tables at gearboxlist and the Nissan model-to-code chart at youcanic, cross-checked against the cross-code table maintained by jatco.su. Where two sources disagree on a fitment, the row says so instead of quietly picking one.
03RE0F10D versus RE0F10F: reading the Nissan letter
Nissan gave the same CVT8 more than one service code, and the letter at the end is the part most catalogues ignore. The trade references that bother to split the two tie the RE0F10D to the Teana-family FWD sedans and the RE0F10F to the X-Trail direction — with one reference extending the F letter to the hybrid JF018E as well, which the other sources do not. That disagreement is worth knowing about, because it tells you the letter behaves like a calibration mark, not a separate gearbox.
| Nissan code | Where the trade documents it | How to treat it |
|---|---|---|
| RE0F10D | Teana L33 and the FWD sedan applications; the US Altima and Rogue chart uses D throughout | The default letter on US-market units |
| RE0F10F | X-Trail T32 per the jatco.su cross-code table; the same source extends F to the hybrid JF018E, which others do not confirm | A variant/calibration split — read it off the tag, never infer it from the model name |
| RE0F10E | Not a JF016E at all — it is the JF017E (chain) code on the 3.5L applications | Reject any listing that treats E as a JF016E variant |
Sources: jatco.su cross-code table (RE0F10D on Teana, RE0F10F on X-Trail); youcanic Nissan chart (RE0F10D across Altima, Rogue, Sentra, Rogue Sport); gearboxlist (RE0F10D / RE0F10F both listed as JF016E codes).
The letter is a confirmation mark, not a standalone ID. When a customer sends us a code ending in F, we match it against the photograph of the original valve body and the VIN before we pick a part number — because the letter alone has burned enough orders that we stopped trusting it on its own years ago.
04Same code, different final drive: the spec-sheet numbers
Here is the part that settles arguments at the counter. JATCO publishes a specification table with every application introduction, and the two most recent ones — the 2022 Serena and the 2025 Destinator — describe the same JF016E with different final drives, different overall lengths and different wet weights. The pulley range and torque capacity never move. The parts that bolt to the car do.
| Parameter (JATCO spec sheet) | JF016E in the Serena (2022 paper) | JF016E in the Destinator (2025 paper) |
|---|---|---|
| Torque capacity | 250 Nm | 250 Nm |
| Torque converter diameter | 236 mm | 236 mm |
| Pulley ratios | 2.631 – 0.378 | 2.631 – 0.378 |
| Ratio coverage | 7.0 | 7.0 |
| Reverse ratio | 0.745 | 0.745 |
| Final gear ratio | 5.385 | 6.386 |
| Overall length | 358.8 mm | 372.2 mm |
| Weight, wet | 95.1 kg (2WD) / 95.6 kg (4WD) | 93.2 kg |
Sources: JATCO Technical Review papers Introducing the Jatco CVT8 (JF016E) for the Nissan Serena (JTR22_17_EN) and for the Mitsubishi Destinator (JTR25_13_EN), Table 1 in each. The Qashqai J11 2.0L final drive of 6.386 documented by gearboxlist matches the Destinator column.
Read the table the way a rebuilder reads it. The rotating core — pulleys, belt, valve body hydraulics — is family-level common. The case, the diff and the ratios it puts to the road are application-specific. That is why we will confirm a valve body or a pulley set for "a JF016E" with less ceremony, but a complete assembly is matched to the vehicle's final drive and length before anything ships. Ordering a Serena-spec unit for a Qashqai-grade diff is not a discount, it is a comeback waiting to happen.
05The exits: cars that quietly stopped being RE0F10D
The Rogue is the case every counter learns the hard way. Catalogues carried RE0F10D against the Rogue for years, and the 2021 redesign ended that without much ceremony — Nissan moved the nameplate to a newer CVT family entirely. Nothing about the badge warned you.
| Car | Model year | What it actually runs | Why the catalogue still misleads |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nissan Rogue (T33 redesign) | 2021 | GE0F10C (2.5L) | Same nameplate, same 2.5L engine, different transmission family |
| Nissan Rogue 1.5T | 2022–2023 | GE0F14A (VC-Turbo 1.5L) | The turbo three-cylinder generation left JATCO's CVT8 behind |
| Nissan Rogue Sport | ended 2022 | RE0F10D to the end | Fine — but only the 2017–2022 window |
| Nissan Murano Z52, Maxima, Pathfinder R52, Quest | 2015–2024 | RE0F10E (JF017E, chain) | Never JF016E in these years — the 3.5L V6 calls for the chain unit |
| Nissan NV200 (US market) | 2013–2021 | RE0F10A (JF011E) | The US 2.0L van predates the 2017+ JF016E listings built on other-market data |
| Nissan Kicks | 2018– | RE0F11B | CVT7 wide-ratio territory, not CVT8 — the same trap the JF015E chart carries |
The last three RE0F10D cores that came through our intake were a 2016 Rogue, a 2017 Rogue and an Altima L33 — exactly the population the exits table says to expect, and exactly the cars most likely to arrive with a listing that still says RE0F10D for a 2022 build. When a customer gives us a model year inside one of the exit windows, we ask for the housing code before we name a part. That single question has prevented more wrong-fit returns on this platform than every other check combined.
06The belt/chain border: where JF016E stops and JF017E starts
The CVT8 family split is drawn by torque, and torque in this range tracks engine displacement almost perfectly. JATCO built the JF016E as the belt-driven member for four-cylinder engines up to 250 Nm and the JF017E as the chain-driven member for the 3.5L V6 class at up to 380 Nm. The two units share a great deal of hardware — same pump family, same architecture — but the power transfer element and the wear map are different animals.
| Engine in the car | Unit | Power transfer | Example applications |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.5L and smaller four-cylinders, up to 250 Nm | JF016E (RE0F10D / F) | Steel push belt | Altima 2.5, Rogue 2.5, X-Trail, Qashqai 2.0, Outlander, Serena MR20 |
| 3.5L V6, up to 380 Nm | JF017E (RE0F10E) | Chain | Altima 3.5, Murano Z52, Maxima, Pathfinder R52, Infiniti QX60 |
Torque capacities per JATCO's CVT8 family documentation; application-to-code mapping per the youcanic Nissan chart. Both units run Nissan NS-3.
Both sides of the border take NS-3, which is where the similarity ends for the parts counter. A belt and a chain do not share a part number with anything, and the pulley faces that a belt grooves are not the faces a chain wears. If the car in front of you is an Altima, the engine badge settles the family; if it is anything else on the 3.5L list, stop looking at CVT8 belt parts entirely. Our JF016E pulley and belt listings and the belt itself (901074) live on the belt side; the JF017E assembly page covers the chain side.
07Four traps that survive the year chart
Even with the chart in hand, four situations keep producing wrong-fit orders on this platform. Each is a two-minute check.
| Trap | What happens | The check |
|---|---|---|
| 1. The Sentra split | The B17 generation ran two CVTs at once: 1.8L cars took the RE0F11A (JF015E) while the 1.6T SR Turbo and Nismo took the RE0F10D | Engine first, year second — 1.6T means CVT8 |
| 2. The Juke conflict | US sources list the 2014–2017 Juke 1.6T as RE0F10A or RE0F10D — they disagree, and both have catalogue support | Only the tag on the housing settles it; send the photo |
| 3. The Murano generation cut | Z51 (to 2014) is JF016E; Z52 (2015+) is the JF017E RE0F10E. Same name, opposite power transfer | Body code, not badge — and the engine will confirm it |
| 4. The NV200 market split | US 2.0L vans (2013–2021) document as RE0F10A; JF016E listings for 2017+ draw on other-market data | Where the van was sold matters as much as when |
08Year windows are not build dates
Most catalogue windows on this unit close around 2017, because that is when the snapshot was taken. The reality on JATCO's own paper is different: the CVT8 line kept evolving, and the 2022 Serena introduction describes a JF016E with a newly designed control valve, a next-generation shift-by-wire system and Nissan's first push-button shifter — followed by the 2025 Destinator with a 1.5L turbo and application-specific torque converter and differential calibration. In other words, the newest documented JF016E is younger than plenty of "obsolete" stickers on warehouse shelves.
What this means at the bench: a car built in 2023 can legitimately carry a unit your catalogue stopped listing in 2017. The code stamped or cast on the housing — bellhousing area on most JATCO units, sometimes on a plate near the top of the case — outranks every year window ever printed. Photograph the tag straight-on, in focus, before you order anything.
09What to send us for fitment confirmation
The chart narrows the field. Five items close it. Send them together and the answer comes back in writing, normally within four business hours.
| What to send | Where to find it | What it settles |
|---|---|---|
| Housing code | Cast or stamped on the case / bellhousing area, or on the unit tag | The Nissan letter — RE0F10D versus RE0F10F — and the family member |
| VIN | Windshield plate or door jamb | Market, engine and calibration, which move the valve body part number |
| Photo of the original valve body | Top face, solenoid side, in focus | Solenoid count, cap type and any number inked on the body |
| Stored fault codes | Any scanner with live CVT data | Whether the fault is hydraulic, mechanical or electrical — which decides the part |
| Fluid condition | Colour, smell, glitter on the magnet or in the pan | Whether the belt and pulleys are already contaminated — valve body versus assembly |
If the code is painted over or the tag is gone, send a wide photo of the case and the VIN — we will tell you where the stamp sits on your specific model. MOQ is one piece, with a 12-month written warranty.
10Sources and frequently asked questions
Application windows, codes and specification figures on this page are compiled from JATCO Technical Review papers JTR22_17_EN (Serena) and JTR25_13_EN (Destinator), the application tables published by gearboxlist, the Nissan model-to-transmission chart at youcanic (drawing on Transend application listings and Nissan service bulletins including NTB23-048 and recall 22V457), and the JATCO cross-code table maintained at jatco.su. Where sources conflict — the Juke 1.6T code, the reach of the RE0F10F letter — the conflict is stated rather than resolved by preference. Family-level hardware references are the same set published in our JF016E / RE0F10D complete technical guide.
Is the RE0F10D the same as the JF016E?
Yes at family level. JF016E is JATCO's model designation, RE0F10D and RE0F10F are the Nissan service codes, F1CJC and W1CJC are the Mitsubishi codes, and FK0 / FR8 are the Renault codes. The family name is CVT8. The letters split calibration variants, not different gearboxes.
Which years did Nissan use the RE0F10D?
The main US-market runs are the Altima 2.5L from 2013 through 2025 across two body generations, the Rogue 2.5L from 2014 to 2020, the Rogue Sport 2.0L from 2017 to 2022, the Sentra SR Turbo 1.6T from 2016 to 2019 and the Sentra 2.0L from 2020 to 2025. Outside the US the X-Trail T32 and Qashqai J11 carry it from 2013, and the Serena and Destinator extend the family to 2025.
Is the 2021 Rogue a JF016E?
No. The 2021 redesign moved the 2.5L Rogue to the GE0F10C and the 1.5L turbo Rogue to the GE0F14A. Catalogues that carried the RE0F10D listing across the redesign are the single most common source of wrong-fit orders on this platform.
What is the difference between RE0F10D and RE0F10F?
The trade references tie RE0F10D to the Teana-family FWD sedan applications and RE0F10F to the X-Trail T32. One source extends F to the hybrid JF018E, which the others do not confirm. Treat the letter as a calibration mark to be read off the housing tag and confirmed against the valve body photo, not as a family boundary.
How do I tell a JF016E from a JF017E?
By the engine. Four-cylinders at 250 Nm or below take the belt-driven JF016E; the 3.5L V6 class at up to 380 Nm takes the chain-driven JF017E with the RE0F10E code. On an Altima both units exist side by side, so the engine badge settles it in two seconds.
What fluid does the JF016E take, and how much?
Nissan NS-3, with a total fill around 7.9 litres documented for the family. The trade schedule calls for fluid and filter service at 40,000 km intervals. NS-2 and generic ATF are not substitutes — the fluid specification moved with the unit when the JF011E was replaced.
Do JF016E parts interchange between models?
At rotating-core level, mostly yes — pulley sets, the belt and valve body hydraulics are family-common, subject to calibration checks. Complete assemblies do not: JATCO's own sheets show a 5.385 final drive in the Serena against 6.386 in the Qashqai/Destinator direction, and an overall length of 358.8 mm against 372.2 mm. That is why we confirm assemblies against the vehicle, not the family name.
What do you need to confirm the right JF016E part?
The code from the housing, the VIN, the stored fault codes, a photograph of the original valve body showing the solenoid side, and the fluid condition. With those five we confirm the variant, the part number, stock and lead time in writing within four business hours. MOQ is one piece.
Photograph the code on the housing and send it with your VIN. We will confirm which variant you have, which part number suits it, and current stock — in writing, before you order.
