Default What your opinion: Level 10 valve body

I’m having some issues with my 7at. When accelerating on track I use the paddle to shift at 6k the transmission seems to go into neutral hits redline then engages and takes off. It was flushed before track day and I also added a cooler. I’m going to flush again to see if it is just bubbles in the valve body. If I have to open up the trans is the level 10 valve body upgrade worth doing? Thanks for your help in advance.

If you have the money and the need, then absolutely yes.

I don't mean to revive a 7 mo old thread, but @TMRN370z did you find a fix? I'm having the same issues. I also had a p0733 code come up on the TCM. I am driving and twice it's happen I go into what appears to be neutral while in drive or paddle shift mode. Do I have a solenoid in the valve body issue? Or what? I also just recently did the 2nd full flush this car has had, no issues with tune or previous flush for over a year. Full bolt on as well.

If you have air/bubbles in your valve body that can possibly be detrimental to your 7AT transmission. Before you go any further diagnosing I would do a complete transmission fluid flush using a machine. Take your Z to a shop or Nissan dealership service department you trust to have your transmission service done as soon as possible. The Level 10 valve body is a very nice upgrade to the 7AT transmission. If you have a use for it yes the Level 10 valve body upgrade is well worth it a specially if your Z sees any track time.
