Looking to the Nissan techs out there. B) And anyone else who's been here before.

2014 Sentra needs a transmission. Big surprise. We're getting one from the dealer, and Drew Tech says they can program the new one remotely (RAP kit). Any information I need to know before proceeding? Ins? Outs? Better source of transmissions?

Not sure. But if they say they can do it they should be able to. Hopefully tuttie I think his name is on the forum chimes in he’s a Nissan guy

I happen to have a page saved in my phone of what those items are from the service manual.

Replacement and programming went well. :cheer: For anyone following along, I found that both the Snap-On and the Launch are capable of erasing the learned values and clearing the fluid deterioration.

The auxiliary clutch point learning function was available, but didn't work. Maybe user error? :silly: Driving it around as described in the PDF above did the trick.

The Opus IVS (Drew Tech) rep that did the programming specified that they'll do new and reman transmissions/TCM's, but not used. Won't touch 'em.
