[Lipsylee]

Hello does anybody know how much atf gearbox oil the car holds.

The pipe came off the rad and poured about 3 litres all over my drive .

 

What oil do I need

How much oil

And do I empty underneath on the drain plugs and fill up from there or can I fill from the charge pipe ?

Thanks lee

We can supply the correct Nissan fluid. You need 11 liters for a complete change.

Ok cheers how much is the oil for 11 litres

 

Is it difficult to do or quite straight forward ?

 

Thanks

Its expensive stuff it would be £200 for 11 liters for genuine Nissan fluid

I know it's very expensive , I called my local nissan dealer and they didn't even stock it !

It's coming tomorrow for £185 and he's going give me a little more discount for trade .

But wow

Just got to make sure I change it correctly haha

Remember that the torque converter holds circa 3 litres, so you will not require the full 11 litres unless you empty the TC.

 

Also make sure that it is J-Matic fluid that they give you.

Ok nice 1 well I won't be draining that .

So 8 litres it is .

This is the oil I'm getting in the morning

Nissan matic s 999mp mts00sp

Is that correct

[ZMANALEX]

Yeah, Matic S ATF supersedes Matic J ATF.

 

Matic S is a far superior fluid to Matic J, however I believe that it does require to be changed at a certain mileage where Matic J was a fluid for life.

 

Also I am not sure if they are compatible with each other.

 

Best to have a Google.
