help diagnosing please!

I bought my 2004 Murano fwd a few months back, and after a few days it started acting up badly. It jolts/shakes in a back and forth motion with no rhyme or reason. Uphill, downhill, accelerating, slowing, coasting, and it comes and goes. Then last month it started making a metal grinding/screeching noise that goes on for about 15 seconds then off and on again, which is getting progressively louder. Also, it seems to have some electrical issues. I took it to my trusted mechanic,and after 2 weeks and several second opinions he can't figure it out. No codes come up either. The only thing we can think of is that the cvt is going out. Can anyone confirm this or help suggest something else? I'm at my wits end! Should I take it to a Nissan dealership for help? Or can I go to my local transmission shop? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

If a quality mechanic couldn't figure it out and no codes are showing anything here would be a guess. I wouldn't keep driving it until it is fixed.


Why do you say it has electrical problems?
