For the P0420, your catalytic converter should be replaced.

The codes P043E, P043F, P2401, P2402, P2419 refers to your evap system having a malfunction. Trace the wiring if broke damaged, fix it. The vacuum switching valve and the cannister should be checked for damages or being stuck, if any anomaly is found, replace it. Check all vacuum hoses for leaks too.

The last code refers to your transmission torque converter pressure control solenoid circuit having a malfunction. I suggest you remove battery, take out wiring harness socket which plugs into the transmission, check the pins for bending or breakage or corossion,clean it using appropriate cleaning compounds, allow to dry, connect the socket firmly, check ATF level, drain and refill.

Have you scanned it?
Did you drain and refill its transmission fluid?
If yes, what transmission fluid do you use in servicing it?
Was drained and mobil trans fluid was used

Did you scan the transmission?
You did not also specify if it's 4 cylinder or v6 and I did not see anywhere where you stated the type of ATF you used.

Fix the P0301 cylinder 1 misfire by swapping the plug, coil, injectors and testing them.

If the misfire changes from P0301 to any other, you have a culprit.

You also need to check the camshaft sensors by swapping them.

No idea for now.
Good day my humble boss.
Please I am experiencing 'transmission slipping'. When I checked online I saw that the most common cause of transmission slipping is low transmission fluid.
I tried checking my ATF and no fluid on the deep stick.
Someone said the car has to be hot while checking. I checked when it was cold.

What's your take on this?

Which car is this?
How do you check it?
Yes your transmission fluid need to be warmed up.

Slippage n transmission doesn't only occur when transmission fluid is low

I want to swap my brothers Nissan Altima 08 2.5L engine and CVT for the 2014 model. The goal is to get better mpg since the fuel prices are really high now.
I’ve heard someone swapped his Murano engine and transmission with the 2014 2.5 and it works perfectly with really impressive mpg.
Do you have any idea about this? They both use the same QR25DE engine but I know the CVT is different cos of the fluid. What do you think?

Good day, what could make RPM to be going down even on motion, mechanic said we just need to adjust the throttle

An excellent high-end Scanner can actually reset the throttle.

What if it's cable driven and not drive by wire?
At least cool83 has not stated what car he drives and repair history.
