Versa / Sentra / March
Technical identity dossier for Versa / Sentra / March, separating market, period, platform, powertrain and research focus.
Technical identity summary
Source variant count: 1 · Status: CURRENT
This page does not treat the same sales name as one vehicle across all years and markets. Rows below remain separated by source region and variant identity.
Versa / Sentra / March · Latin America
| Record | VR-002055 |
|---|---|
| Period | 2011– • Current sale / production |
| Platform / generation | HR16/2.0; MT/CVT |
| Powertrain / energy / driveline | MT/CVT |
| Research focus | verify platform/generation, powertrain/energy/driveline and market-specific application identity against manufacturer/source records before applying parts, service procedures or chronic-fault claims. |
Where should diagnosis start?
- Separate CVT, D-CVT and e-CVT technically; fluid, clutch, motor-generator and hydraulic architectures differ.
Exact OEM torque, pressure, capacity, pin or calibration values are not inferred from this normalized identity record; a verified service source is required for the exact vehicle application.
Recorded application matrix and evidence boundary
| Record | Region | Period | Platform | Powertrain record | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| VR-002055 | Latin America | 2011– • current | HR16/2.0; MT/CVT | MT/CVT | D · source-lineage identity; not OEM service evidence |
Grade-D records are not OEM service procedures; they are source-lineage research rows preserving market/generation/powertrain identity. Exact torque, pinout, pressure or fitment is not inferred from this layer.
System architecture: what does this record indicate?
- CVT belt/chain-pulley architecture is not conflated with e-CVT planetary/motor-generator architecture.
Freeze-frame and live-data package
- Freeze frame: first/last fault time, RPM, load, vehicle speed, system voltage, core temperatures and companion DTCs.
- Driveline: input/output speeds, commanded/actual ratio, clutch/TCC slip, fluid temperature, actuator/solenoid command and adaptations.
Measurement sequence
- 1) Match vehicle/generation/market/powertrain/driveline identity to the source record; family name alone is not fitment evidence.
- 2) Preserve freeze frame and companion DTCs before clearing; make the first-fault condition reproducible.
- 3) Verify power/ground and network communication under load; do not decide from key-on static measurement alone.
- 5) Compare electronic command → hydraulic/actuator response → mechanical slip/ratio result at the same temperature and load.
- 6) After repair, recreate the same load/temperature and verify DTC state, live-data deviation and user symptom together.
Root-cause discrimination matrix
- For CVT ratio faults, identify the architecture first; e-CVT motor-generator power split and belt/chain CVT hydraulic-pulley faults do not share the same diagnostic tree.
