  • Here is a simple drain & fill procedure that should apply to your G35 and 350Z. If you are worried about doing a complete transmission flush (like me) then a few of these should help you on your way. After completing the initial three drain/fills, I intend to do just one every 30K miles. Go out and DoWitt!

    1. Did you jack up your car or were you able to drain atf without jacking it up?
    2. Did you warm up atf before opening the drain bolt?
    3. How much quarts of old atf came out?

      should you only drain and fill once at a time ?

    • @DoWittGarage
      @DoWittGarage  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I’d say you COULD drain/fill, drive for a little while, then do another one. But I feel like that would negate the purpose of trying to retain any suspended clutch material in the fluid by replacing too quickly. I personally am waiting between 2,500-5,000 miles between these first three, then every 30k after. Thanks for watching DWG!

    • @DoWittGarage
      @DoWittGarage  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good question! The transmission has a lifetime filter screen in it. Just a drain and fill will be fine. For reference, mine has almost 220k miles and the transmission has never been opened. Thanks for watching!

    You should check fluid level with engine idling

      My uncle refurbished them for me before he sold me the car. He used a Mother's Kit that you can buy from O'Reilly. You wet sand, then buff with a drill. Then, you can ceramic coat the lenses and they won't yellow nearly as quickly. Thank you for watching!

    • @DoWittGarage

      I would certainly recommend completing a drain and fill procedure, preferably three spaced between 2,500-10,000 miles. Your transmission fluid should be bright red.

      Warm or cold will work. Warm lets the fluid flow better, but you have to be careful not to burn yourself on the exhaust.

    Question, I had a shop perform a transmission oil change. I did not know that it had to be done with OEM fluids. I am not sure what they used but I am willing to bet it wasn’t OEM. Car has 58k what should I do?

    • @DoWittGarage
      @DoWittGarage  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey there. I am assuming you have an automatic transmission. I would check with the shop and see what oil they used for your swap. Not that other oils cannot be used successfully, but I generally recommend OEM fluid when it comes to transmissions and other high-cost wear items. Your car has such low miles that I would have the fluid replaced with OEM and then complete a fluid drain/fill every 25-30k. Thanks for watching!

      @@DoWittGarage I appreciate the response here. Love your videos BTW. And yes, its a AT. So the shop used LiquiMoly ATF 1800. I checked the website and it is compatible with all vehicles that require Matic-S. I called 3 dealers and keep getting mixed responses. One dealer is recommending a full flush. The other is recommending a drain/refill twice. This will help the aftermarket fluid flush out. While the other is recommending just one drain/refill. I am concerned with a full flsuh which doesn't sound healthy and also concerned with having two different fluid in my transmission with just a drain/refill. I am at a loss and don't know what to do next. I don't mind spending the money to get it done right. It doesn't seem like anyone knows hat right is. I would appreciate your insight!

    • @DoWittGarage
      @DoWittGarage  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I appreciate you tuning in! LiquiMoly is a high quality product, however, our transmissions are picky about their fluid. Nearly all research I’ve done recommends using only OEM Matic-S. For your situation, the only way to remove all of the old fluid and replace with new is through a full transmission flush, as recommended by one of the dealers you called. One or two drain and fills will only dilute the LiquiMoly and new fluid. Since your transmission only has 58k miles, a flush should be just fine. Then, subsequent drain and fills every 25-30k miles for the life of the car.
