Hi guys, considering buying a RORO Axio, but I'm worried the fact that it has a CVT will mean more maintenance issues or problems. I've heard that CVTs tend to give trouble, any truth to that? Or anyone have one of these with a lot of mileage or that can share their experiences with the car at all?

I have the fielder wagon with the same tranny and i have had no issues. When i got the car the first thing i did was have the tranny flushed and new fluid added. Its a beautiful tranny with the eco drive feature. You save alot of gas and the tranny makes your work as a driver less since the tranny virtually pushes the car more then you give gas. Bottom line its a good buy

Asked the same question on a Toyota facebook group - see below.

Response: well from wat I've heard, this & d corolla Fielder wagon hav CVT & its sealed ie no drain bolt like the NZE, it doesn't giv trouble but @ some point d fluid will break down esp faster in our hot climate & would jus need 2 change. my suggestion is find out if d dealership or any other gud garage has d machine to pump it out if u r in trinidad I can suggest 1 or 2 places that can, & use a synthetic like Amsoil T IV to replace it

Me: Thanks for the info man, didn't know that it didn't have a drain bolt, kinda strange. All in all not discouraging. I think when I get it I'll do that as a first. What places you know that do that? (in case my usual mechanic can't - don't know)

Response: Chaguanas auto supplies or check silverstar auto mucurapo rd

Response: very informative post, I'm keeping my NZE lol
