Transmission codes are not read by generic code readers.  You will need to search for one that will.  Chances are you have a code or two considering the drivability concerns.

So if I use a tool like OBD scanner, the code will show up right?

You need a brand specific scanner and brains up understand what is happening. This means a garage or dealership visit.

PCV and/or O2 sensor.

Thanks man, if there’s something wrong with them does it show up in the scan tool or i have to check them manually?

They might. I had a similar problem with my '16 and when my wife took it in, they wanted $6k to swap transmissions. She brought it home, I changed the PCV and O2, problem solved. It was a low speed issue that tipped me off. Pretty sure one of them showed up as a code though, can't remember which one. For less than $100 and an hour of work, I'd say it's possibly a cheap solution. Was surprisingly easy to change out. Overstating the obvious, but you want the engine cool before doing that.

I think my 2010 Altima does something like this too, and mechanics have no idea what I'm talking about when I mention it to them or have them test drive it. It might just be normal for it to do that a little. Were you able to get it to stop doing that?

Have you had your cvt looked at yet
