Actually it is the continuously variable transmission (CVT). Unlike traditional automatic transmissions, continuously variable transmissions don't have a gearbox with a set number of gears, which means they don't have interlocking toothed wheels. The most common type of CVT operates on an ingenious pulley system that allows an infinite variability between highest and lowest gears with no discrete steps or shifts. This is all done with pulleys and not with gears although the ratio does change just like in a regular transmission. Click the link.

How do you check if your problem is the cv joint or the transmission?

To determine if the issue is with the CV joint or the transmission, listen for specific symptoms while driving. A clicking or popping noise during turns typically indicates a CV joint problem, while slipping or harsh shifting may suggest a transmission issue. You can also visually inspect the CV joints for torn boots or grease leaks, whereas transmission issues often involve fluid leaks or warning lights on the dashboard. Additionally, consider the vehicle's overall performance and behavior to help pinpoint the source of the problem.
