Changing A/T Fluid
1. Drive the vehicle to warm up the ATF to 80°C (176°F).
2. Stop the engine.
3. Remove the ATF level gauge bolt.
4. Drain the ATF from the drain plug hole and refill the transmission with new ATF. Always refill with the same volume as the drained fluid and use
the dipstick to check the fluid level as shown. Add fluid as necessary.
^
To flush out the old fluid from the coolers, pour new fluid into the charging pipe with the engine idling and at the same time drain the old fluid
from the auxiliary transmission oil cooler hose return line.
^
When the color of the fluid coming out of the auxiliary transmission oil cooler hose return line is about the same as the color of the new fluid,
flushing out the old fluid is complete. The amount of new transmission fluid used for flushing should be 30% to 50% of the specified capacity
For Transmission fluid type and capacity, See: Specifications
CAUTION:
^
Use only Genuine NISSAN ATF Matic Fluid J. Do not mix with other fluid.

Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN ATF Matic Fluid J will cause deterioration in driveability and automatic
transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty.
^
When filling the transmission with fluid, do not spill the ATF on any heat generating parts such as the exhaust manifold.
^
Do not reuse the drain plug gasket.
