Control System: Outline
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Nissan Sentra. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The automatic transaxle senses vehicle operating conditions through various sensors. It always controls the optimum shift position and reduces shifting and lock-up shocks.
