Disadvantages of the XA-10LN gearbox
- The service life of the CVT strongly depends on the frequency of oil changes, the more often the better;
- Dirty lubricant gets into the bearings and causes a terrible noise in the automatic transmission under load;
- Also, this transmission is afraid of overheating due to slipping and driving in traffic jams;
- A number of car owners with such a gearbox have encountered leaking drive seals.
