That dark knight is beast with the black on black 🙌🏻🔥
This was real helpful, although I have owned my 2007 infiniti g25 for 2 years, with 92k kilometres now on the clock.. Fluid looked exact same colour as in your video. Will change transmission fluid at 100k kilometres
Thanks,
I couldn't even find the dipstick when I bought my used g35x .
Dam!!! That dark night is beast mode !!!
Brother !! Walking journey
About damn time I see a legit video on how to check the trans fluid. I have 2008 M45 sport. basically a bigger car and v8 version of the g35. And I could never understand the grid pattern on the dip stick.
1) For G35, dip stick needs to be inserted the reverse direction to check transmission fluid...instruction in black bold text on the instructions in your hand....2) 10 7/8 quarts if full capacity from empty 3) what you take out put back in simple as that 4) measure it per instructions 4) I change my transmission fluid every 20k..my G35 coming on 100K...fluid was pretty clean, still starting slipping (not sure why everyone tells me I should never have changed it 5) wish I had someway to measure the temp on transmission fluid but too lazy and cheap to go buy a temp diagnostic tool via ODBC connection....6) I let my G35 from the drain plug sit for 3 hours and only 2.5 QUART came out! 7) to empty more you need to remove RETURN hose...well forget the name Return....just pull the hose coming out of the radiator at bottom facing drivers side of car as YOU are facing the windshield of car standing in front of car....you will know you pulled the correct RUBBER hose because if you turn the key to turn on the car, FLUID WILL SQUIRT OUT FROM THE RUBBER HOUSE...8) I only let 2 quarters coming out each time I turn the car on, and than turn it OFF 9) buy yourself CONTAINTER with MEASURE on it so you know total how many quarter came out OR, just get a bigger container to hold more than 11 QUARTS and dump back into the emptied NEW FLUID quart containers you just added into TRANSMISSion...10) I am not responsible on my comments if you mess your car up...
Thanks Dude! I appreciate the video!
Glad I watched this because I checked mine and it was a little bit over as well

I tested that transmission theory with my 2008 Titan with 200k miles. This vehicle was already low on transmission fluid and I only spent 1500 on it. It currently has 240k on it and runs like a dream. If you are around 140k I would check it and if you are low change it. If your not low but it's dirty I suggest adding a additive to it for sure. You can change it if you want but its on you. I do agree with that theory but it also depends on the life of the vehicle.
I love your videos.my dad have 2004 INFINITI g35 automatic transmission with 151,000 miles my dad don't remember the last time he changed the transmission fluid when I look at the dip stick fluid was a orange with tint of red color no burnt smell or metal particles is it safe to change it.
Have an 05' 350z 5A/T with 260k on it....no rebuilds yet knock on wood. One thing I've always found odd is Nissan states in the FSM to check the A/T fluid with the gauge rotated in the reverse direction of how its normally attached. Any idea why this is? You can see it at 1:48 below section E.
Love the Dark Knight. ❤️
love pugs
Very informative! So weird that my 07’ G35 5AT only drained about 3.5 quarts. I went through the motions of letting it idle and shift the gears. After three “drain and fills” my ATF is nice and clean. So glad you highlighted the dipstick area too!
3.5-4 quarts is normal for a drain

I just got an automatic 2009 370z with 81,000 miles on it should I do the transmission oil change, if so where can I get it done?
Dude! You are awesome. Thank you so much for making this SWEET video!! 💖
Do u think g37 and 370z has the same to check tje trans fluid
I have a 2006 Infiniti G 35 coupe automatic transmission, my fluid as at the bottom of the hashmarks (the coarse section) when warmed up, i’m about to add 10 oz of lubeguard, will that 10 ounces stay within the hashmarks I really don’t feel like sucking any fluid out?
do the 2007 g35coupe got a transmission dipstick?
Do you add the transmission fluid in that same place as well ?
Great
Is it ok to not put the bolt back? Because mine fell off
Hi can i check the transmission fluid in cold?
Good on Infiniti for not making the transmission a sealed system.
A "little" over full?
Hi there I have a g35, with a problem, and that is I never hear or see the low fans running, there constantly at running high speed when it reaches 208-212 . Is it a relay that doesn’t go on low speed setting ? Radiator ?
Good question. Does your ac work?
Infiniti vehicles with Jatco 5AT says reverse the dipstick when you check ATF level…
What if you ad a bit to it?
Cool Stuff.. Where can we download/print information from the service manual like you have?
Why didn't you get an answer to this question?
My shit light brown been brown for 7 years lmao if it aint broke dont fix it 🤣 😂
stick a wire temperature probe down the fluid pipe to measure the fluid at various temperatures (or buy one of those fancy ODBC II tools that measure transmission temp) ....I check mine at 149F....just did it for fun again today...I am retired...got nothing else to do....measure the length of the wire temperature probe line the same length of the dip stick inserted in reverse order of normal placement with the bolt....and shove it down the fluid pipe...the probe length is about I think was 24.5 inches but I don't remember....well just measure to make sure---measure from the end of dipstick to end to the rubber piece will hit the fluid tube in reverse placement of normal install conditions...if you don't understand what is written here like my neighbor says "just leave it alone"...
Wish you could help me change my transmission oil
I have a question
Doesn't dip stick go opposite direction when inserted to measure level?
^ this. It says it in the manual.
AT-13 "CAUTION:
To check A/T fluid level, insert the A/T fluid level gauge until the cap contacts the end of the A/T
fluid charging pipe, with the A/T fluid level gauge reversed from the normal attachment conditions.
Does this mean the stick needs to be inserted opposite direction. So the part the screw goes through would be toward the left instead of right?
@@tc-og7qy yes, stick needs to be inserted opposite direction ONLY to measure the fluid...yes, the part the screw goes through would be towards the left instead of right if you are facing it...this is in the mechanics manual....I found the mechanics manual for FREE a long time ago on the internet but I forget the link...everyone should have a copy of this....search G35 Mechanics Maintenance Manual FREE or something similar...I forgot what I typed to search it...sorry....
so we don't have to insert it completely?
I just checked mines but it’s reading empty the engine was warm but no reading should I add fluid or just drain and fill
I know it's ~9 months ago but you're supposed to check with the dipstick the opposite way of the bolt
What exhaust would sound dope on an auto g35? Been looking to see what to do with my new car
Think they're motordynes
it will only show fluid on the dipstick if my car is off.
Is castrol transmax import multi vehicle the same as the nissan j fluid ?
idk, but i used valvoline maxlife on my auto g35 and it works fine
What do you recommend if the oil is dark don’t charge it ?
It's old folk lore for older transmissions that have a cloth or sponge line filter that, if flushed, will launch/release the filter debris out. Most newer cars have like a mesh filter, if any. With the g35 etc it's best to replace about 4 qrts at a time until all 12 qts are circulated through and is red again. I do it every other oil change or so on my g35 pushing 225k miles
My 05 Sedan drained 5 quarts & I put back in 5 quarts, looks a little high now.
Yes because of fluid expansion. The newer fluid expands differently from the old.
Do you think the automatic g35 transmission are reliable? Should I go for manual? I don't know how to drive stick
They are reliable
I removed bokt I have no stick on end
What fluid do you personally use for transmission??
Amsoil for gear box and rear diff. Castrol for the engine. Video here...ua-cam.com/video/N5_XKvVvLcw/v-deo.html
Where and should I put the Lucas Transmission fix on my 04 G35? HELP.
No. Fix it properly
I have a question how many transmission oil get a infinity g35 2007
Mario needs his engine clean
So I bought a G35 with 156k miles, I haven’t changed the fluid since but I have only put about 4K miles on it. Is there anyway of knowing if the fluid was changed before by the previous owner? Or just leave it if it’s a really dark color. Thanks!
No there really isn't any way of knowing. Leave it. Automatic Transmissions usually need a rebuild at 150k miles so not worth the risk of changing.
Motordyne g35 Since you use amsoil in your manual transmission? Do you know of amsoil type for the automatic transmission fluid, I haven't seen 350z auto grade type made from amsoil? I would very much appreciate you getting back with me thank you
Use only Nissan ATF. Check with Nissan which type you need. Bring vin # to parts counter with you.
G35 AT Sedan with 160k miles. So don't do it?
I've got a 2004 G35 Coupe with the A/T. Whats the ATF capacity for a drain and fill? I've got about 103k miles on the car, not sure if the ATF was ever changed (i'm the second owner). Thanks!
Never mind, just saw the end of the video and its listed. I think the 04' and 05' model is exactly the same, mechanical wise. I was deciding between Amsoil and Nissan Matic-S, what's your take? I know you use Amsoil.
Definatly change it, because everyone forgets to change the transmisson fluid. It is just as important as changing the engine oil. Every 30k it should be changed, 50k with synthetic.
Yeah, I use Amsoil for my 6MT gearbox and others are saying you should stick to the Nissan OEM fluid on the autos. Since I do not have an automatic, then I'll listen to them and say go OEM fluid. On my manual, I"m at 172,000 miles on the gear box with butter smooth shifts and no grinding of gears, so the Amsoil is working just fine for me.
Yeah I read that the Amsoil OE Fuel-Efficient Synthetic ATF can be used in place of Matic-S fluid and both are about the same price. Was also thinking of replacing the differential gear oil with Amsoil 80w-90 synthetic gear lube. how often do you personally replace the gear oil, if at all? Thanks!
Every time I change out my 6MT gearbox oil at 50k miles, I always also do the differential because the car is already jacked up on all 4 corners and level. Even though I think the service manual does say use 80w-90, my tuner told me he uses Amsoil Severe Gear 75W-90. In both the diff and the 6MT gearbox, so that is what I have been doing. With my Nismo diff cover, it takes an additional 1 qt of oil than OEM for even more cooling.
Thanks for the tip! I plan on doing an engine oil change soon (Using Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5W-30) but will do an ATF drain and fill and differential fluid change as well. Still haven't decided between using Nissan Matic-S or Amsoil but I suppose its best to just order everything off Amsoil (stuff is expensive!). Thanks for your videos, keep it up!
How many quarts for drain and fill?
Integrafreak1 about 7 qts
@@food4e1 no
So mine is looking a little on the Darker side so I’m stuck in between working on it or leaving it be I got the car about a month ago. Any ideas?
Ayy Lmao
I'm following this thread
Ayy Lmao ....How many miles are on your G?
Motordyne G35 I have 169k
Ayy Lmao ......Let the person who is changing the trans fluid make that call. Here watch this for more.....ua-cam.com/video/o690DovjDAc/v-deo.html
Motordyne G35 thank you. I really appreciate the quick replies. And I’m not to sure about my other comment but I had an idle bounce but if was fixed and was caused by a rip in the intake after the maf sensor. So thank you again for replying it helps a lot.
How much engine oil you put in a G
5 qts with oil filter change.
If his fluid is the slightest bit brown then it needs to,be changed. And being overfilled is damn near just as bad. That was poor advice you gave him after standing there and telling folks it needs to have a reddish tint to it. Brown in any shade means change it and too higg,or low on fluid is bad. It was more than just a little bit past the hot mark bro.
Yep i agree. no matter how long the car has been running it should never be over the fill the line.
you didnt watch the whole video but I agree on changing the fluid if its brown
If I recently just bought an 05 g35 with 121,xxx miles, should i replace the fluid if needed ? (I have not checked yet)
You can drain and replace one quart at a time. Repeat every oil change for a couple years.
@@deasttn that really works ? Whats an indicator of tranny fluid thats bad
@@josecontreras954 like other oil,, age and mileage are best indicator.
Yes, you can drain and replace one quart at a time, but I usually drain and replace a gallon at a time every year or so.
I use valvoline red bottle synthetic in my 08 Infiniti.
@@deasttn ok ima look into it morw and give it a try. I have an 04 sedan I got it at 130k miles its at 150 now but the trans doesnt seem too bad for its age and mileage. Idk if previous owner ever performed one.
@@josecontreras954 best of luck. Its not all that hard (most challenging part is pouring the transmission oil in)
What if ur low on atf is it safe to add more or just leave it alone? I’m at 180K on my G bought it at 150K
Boy Meets World 717 ....add more for sure. If I was at 180k, I would change it but that is risky because if the transmission is on its way out, the fresh fluid will make it more clear. Apparently the old fluid has so many metal particles in it floating around that it helps keep it from slipping. That’s if it has never been changed it’s entire life, but if someone did change it. You would be in the he clear changing it yourself. I just bought a Lincoln MKZ at 100k miles. I changed the transmission fluid once I bought it and it came out bright red meaning I got lucky, someone changed it before me.
Motordyne G35 I just checked my fluid its a very light brown with pink tint it’s not dark so that’s a good sign I had no idea if the previous owner even replaced it so I should be OK to just change it without any issues
You can also just drain one quart n refill with one quart. Repeat every oil change for a year or two.
hey what exhaust is that can I get link

120 k mile trans is on its last leg? WTF LMFAO.
Right like fuck he talking about 😂
The transmission fluid change myth is exactly that, a myth. I've never had a trans fail after a fluid change, and have cured many neglected transmission problems by changing the fluid.
my dipstick shows that it's overfilled, should I take off fluid
Depends on how much overfill
I have a 2006 automatic 350z how much transmission fluid do I need for a change?
7:06
Motordyne G35 damn so 10 quarts for my auto trans? I put 5 in.
What? Did you drain it first? The torque converter holds like 3 quarts, even though the full capacity is 10 quarts, you will not get all 10 out because 3 or 4 qts will be stuck in the torque converter.
Motordyne G35 yes I drain it. I ended up calling the dealership and they helped me. Thanks for the help also though man great video.
so how many quarts did you refill? i also have 06 auto with 57k and when it hits 60k ill do both oil and atf change at the same time
Dark Night at 3:34!!
flash!!!!!!
Mario !!!!! I see YOU.......8:00
cris sanchez flash
I lost the 10 mil bolt it fell somewhere in the engine bay, whats specs to the bolt
Infinitiparts dot com probably has one.
i'm at 174K on my FX35, I think i need to check my fluids... lol
that shits stock asf and everyone like beast hahaha then he said the dark knight fuck im dead
Any know how to check and change atf on a g37 2012 automatic????
Same model and year and question here
trying to figure out if i can use matic s on my 03 g35 lmk pls
Yes or look at any that say magic/j/s as recommended
I just bought a 06 g35 with 129k miles, I haven’t gotten to check it yet, but if it doesn’t look good should i go ahead?
You can just drain one quart and refill with one quart. Repeat every oil change for a year or two
Got my a/t flushed by Infiniti, I brought my own fluid but they told me that using Nissan fluid is the way to go, that any other brand fluid will damage my car, I thought they were scamming me but they didn’t charge me for the fluid. The mech there said that, when it comes to transmission fluid, it’s very important to stick with oem. Not sure to believe them or not.
keanu Romero I'd always stay with oem when it comes to ATF
I 've had my G35 since new. In my manual gearbox and rear diff, I only use Amsoil 75w-90. I currently have 169,000 miles and none of my synchros grind. In regards to an automatic transmission, using Amsoil would be no different. Even the service manual says for my manual gear box, do not use anything else but Nissan 75w-90 API-GL-4. Amsoil ATF is far superior to OEM ATF, but the stealership always lies so saying you can only use their product, would be another lie. Although the service manual does say only use Nissan ATF fluid, but the service manual says that on every single fluid, you can only use Nissan fluids to ensure they get all of your money.
Nick Bonilla........did make a good suggestion, you really can't go wrong with OEM fluids. Genuine Nissan Matic J ATF is NOT a synthetic fluid which is only $11 per bottle vs Amsoil which is $15 per bottle, but Amsoil is a synthetic ATF so it has longer change intervals. OEM fluid is also the cheaper choice.
For the record, Genuine Nissan Matic J ATF is made by castrol and sold to Nissan so they can put their name on it.
Motordyne G35 I have a question for you what the difference between g35 and 350z besides interior because it’s super hard to find a 6 speed g35 but I found a 350z 2005 50,000 miles what’s your opinion of the 350z your expertise would be greatly appreciated
he needs to change that oil ..
I have a G37 sedan I love it , but dam it’s a annoying car lolol
Can y’all get to the point pls
Lmaooo
Ugh if the trans fluid was never changed and ur at 120k miles don’t even bother changing it ugh that sounds horrible. Just leave the old oil for life in the trans kuz the previous owner under 120k miles never changed it . That does not sound safe.
It's true. ua-cam.com/video/o690DovjDAc/v-deo.html
Only an idiot in an automatic would speed towards a wall knowing he will have to slam the brakes soon after
Hey! I have a quick question! I have a 2004 G35X and I’d like to know if the transmission needs more fluid, do you add more where the dipstick is?
Thanks!
Yes you do
