No drone in my Altima. Quite as a bird (non-chirping kind...)!

But, just to get back to the subject at hand - CVT is for front wheel drive vehicles. You find it in the Maxima and the Altima but not in the Rear Wheel Drive Nissans, to include the Z. I think the best explanation given is by HKYStormFront a few posts above this post...
