These transmissions have 2 filters in them. One requires dropping the trans pan (not very difficult) and the other is easily accessible by removing the driver side tire. You can do it without tire removal too. I recommend changing those filters.
When do i change filter? Mechanic told me at 100k miles but i heard online by 30k or 60k miles...and here you say not to so i wonder lol@@4WheeledAdventures
@@johnpaiz6372 honestly I never did and I had over 100k on it. I was about to do it then I traded in the car. I just was really on the trans oil changes I was doing it about every 3 engine oil changes or ever 3-6 months. But before that I was actually thinking about doing the filters every 30-50k .
After re-installing the overflow tube into the drain, DIYers should pour in most of the three new quarts of CVT fluid (2.5 quarts at least) BEFORE starting the engine. Pouring in only one quart before starting the engine (1:25) is incorrect. The CVT should be almost full of new fluid before starting the engine after the old fluid has drained out. Then, slowly pour in the remaining half quart until fluid is seen to drip out of the overflow. CVT fluid level is temperature dependent so don't do the fluid exchange right after a long drive on a hot summer day. It's best to do a simple drain and fill after the car has been sitting for a few hours.
I worked at Nissan for over 10 years never once had an issue doing it this way. And why do you think I shifted gears to warm up the transmission it doesn’t matter if it hot or cold it will be filled up to spec after it’s all said and done that is why they have the tube in the pan.
Nissan isnt lying when they say their transmission fluid is specially formulated for their cars. Save yourself some headaches and pay the extra 10 bucks per bottle and buy the Nissan brand!
As a Nissan mechanic Let me tell you something, all cvt noises are caming from transmission CVT overheat, if you not believe me just check your transmission temperature in your scanner normal is 190-210 but always i found over 230-260f, of course this condition destroyed your bearings, variable pulleys, the push belt or chain, al your internal seals and clutchs, as well as your valve body, to prevent this problem in all CVT al least made by Jatco, install a extra transmission cooller and replace your cvt oil and 2 filters 30000 miles

Hello bro, I want the original oil, but I went to the dealership, and the code they gave me is NP/QCVT1LTNS3. However, the one in your video is 999MP-CV0NS3. Are they the same oils?
How many quarts does it take dealer told me 7 quarts but dealers wanted $25 a bottle so order a kit of 5 quarts for $90 and bought two so I have 10 quarts coming and fillters and the oil pan gasket as I replace the valve body but I believe that’s wrong 7 quarts seems a lot for a little transmission
If you do it how I did it without filter it’s about 2 1/2 - 3 not sure with filter. I know the whole thing holds about 7 but that probably with the torque converter filled and lines.
@@4WheeledAdventures yeah that’s the issue I’m running into is dealer doesn’t know / doesn’t wanna tell me because I replaced my valve body inside the transmission and replaced both filters i drained about 4 quarts into an oil pan then probably another quart fell on the ground if not more so issues isn’t with me not having enough ns3 trans oil i bought 2 packs of 5 on Amazon and I don’t wanna say add 6 and it only takes 5 and I can return the other 5 and get $100 back
FYI. If you go to the dealer they go by the service manual which says to drain the fluid, and remove the overfill tube. Then add 3 +/- quarts, go through the gears, drain it again, reinsert overflow tube, add 3 +/-quarts, go through the gears. Then they check it to see if it "properly filled", so basically at the dealer your paying for 6-7 quarts +/-. It's supposed to get most of the old fluid out. This video shows a short cut getting about half of the old fluid out. Yes the entire system takes 7 quarts for a complete rebuild, but that is not necessary. If you do the method in this video every 20k it should be OK. it's up to you if you want to change all the fluid or some of it and how often. It also depends on how much you love your CVT (Nissan's are junk, I've had problems since 15k). I also have a 2011 subaru CVT with over 100k, never done a thing to it, and it has been rock solid.
