I'm not a certified Nissan mechanic. This video is for your entertainment only.
Is Amsoil CVT fliud better than Nissan? Yes on the paper. Amsoil seems having higher viscosity on all temperatures, compares to Nissan. Meaning the fluid is thicker. I don't care much on low temperature as I live in California, but I'm concern more on high temperature. Well, time will tell.
Here are what you need.
19mm wrench
19mm washer (Dorman Drain Plug, Part# 097-134)
5 Quarts Nissan Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Fluids or other better CVT Fluids with higher viscosity
5 qt bucket
Flat screw driver

My transmission fluid need changing in my 2018 Nissan Rogue Sport I’ve never did it on any of my car but now I know how to thank u for showing us step by step…
Thank you for this video im going to be changing the fluid in my 2015 rogue soon this was so very helpful!!
You're welcome. Glad the video was helpful for you. Please subscribe to this channel. Thank you
I’m about to change it in my wife’s 15 rogue. She’s got about 37K. May I ask how many miles did you have when you did that change? And how has your week been running since then?
This is very helpful in terms of showing all steps involved very clear.
Thank you. Would you please help me subscribe? 🙏
Thank you so much, very very helpful! Hope that transmission fluid worked out well for you
You're welcome. Glad it helps. Yes, it works fine so far.
Very helpful. After watching other videos about where the trans fluid goes this one directed me right to it. Thsnks
You're very welcome
That was the best do-it-yourself video I've seen on UA-cam
Thank you so much
thank you been needing a video like this !
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching Carlos. Please help me subscribe to this channel 😊
I have a 17 rogue, it has amsoil CVT installed at the dealership. But after watching this will do myself. Thank u 👍🇨🇦
You are very welcome. I'm surprised a dealership uses Amsoil.
@@NorCalOutdoor Actually I brought the amsoil into the dealership, Of course they didn't recommend it, but I said go ahead anyway lol.
@@404notfound..... ah okay. That's nice they let you used it. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for this video 🤓 Helps a LOT!
You're very welcome. Glad it helps
Thank you ! this video was a life saver.
You're very welcome
Great thanks for the video I’m going to do my 2014 rouge fluid change
You're welcome. Thanks for watching
I used Amsoil Signature Series CVT fluid in my 15 Nissan Rogue. Flushed and filled once at 100k kms. Drove the vehicle for a couple of days and performed another flush and fill. Transmission runs way smoother with Amsoil signature which is NS-3 equivalent. Yes Amsoil will mix with the old CVT fluid with no complications. However I performed 2 flush and fills to get a higher volume of new CVT fluid in the transmission. I have gone 30k Km since and the vehicle is running great. Will wait till I hit around 60K on the flush and fill before I change it out again.
Great video. I used a measuring pitcher instead of an old jug of oil to be more precise but it works just the same.
Thankyou for sharing. Yes, flushing 2 or 3 will help put more Amsoil inside. I know Amsoil is a bit expensive, but away better than replacing CVT tranny.
How much did you put in the first change ?
Is there any other way to check the Transmission fluid level instead of fill up whatever you took out?
Bro the drain and fill makes it smoother not the amsoil. Try going 100k one on amsoil and see what happens
@@NorCalOutdoor when I upgraded my transmission coolers I had to use 7 quarts of amsoil because I put an extra eight coil outer cooler to help with keeping the transmission cooled down and keeping the viscosity of the CVT fluid lasting longer even though I used amsoil I still took precautions to make the transmission last longer for the benefits of having my vehicle a longer time!! Amsoil is the best CVT fluid!! It's still not as expensive as Nissan fluid but a whole lot better rated CVT fluid!! They use it in WRX rally cars!! So that says a lot to pull hard up hills and through hard curves for racing!! You will get better lasting mileage out of the amsoil!! Nobody knows who actually makes Nissan CVT fluid!! So it is very questionable anyway!...
excellent video, thank you Señor 🙏👍

I own the 2019 Rogue SL AWD and the Maint.-Manuel says up to 72-Months, to "ONLY" Inspect. I had the radiator changed which Dealer told me I needed but after I had my Garage Choice do it, it already had the Blue 100K mile in it. Dealer wasted my money. Manager @ Shop was once a Nissan Svc Employee and told me these days you only inspect the transmission oil and to go by my manuel. Only replace if does not look good. I watched your video and very good, although I won't be doing these fluid changes as to not ruin my 'warranty'. I have a 100K miles CPO. I do enjoy all these videos that are put out as it is always good to be informed even not doing the work. Thanks
It’s manual. Manuel is a persons name
@@busman7228 Thaks for te speling leasion....
Wow i paid over $200 for a cvt change. Couldnt find a good video before. Thanks I'll do it myself next time
You're welcome. You should be able to do it yourself next time
Local nissan dealership wants $300! That's why I am here.
Well this is actually only half a change, in order to change allbthe fluid you have to do this 3 time to get it all--> PlUS there is another snall filter in the front
Don’t be a fool and use amsoil . OEM is the way to go. Jatco build the transmissions for Nissan and they highly recommend oem ns3.
But you didn’t change the filter that’s very important
Thanks for the video! Very helpful

This was a great video and right to the point. Thank you.

I use amsoil also in my 2013-2014 Nissan rogue and also upgraded the transmission cooler and put a 8 coil outter transmission cooler to add long length lasting CVT fluid viscosity to help keep the transmission to last longer!! So far so good!! Amsoil is the best for the CVT fluids!! Never have had an issue the best CVT fluid by far!! I also pull a trailer for my side by side that weighs almost 1600 lb together the trailer and the side by side together is close to 3000!! The hitch I have is ready for $3,500 lb!! And that is also the tow capacity of the vehicle!... 👍👍😁😜🙌
A transmission cooler will definitely help. Wow.. I won't tow anything heavy with Rogue. I belive the max tow for Rogue is around 1350 lbs only. Glad your Rogue can pull 3k+.
My local Nissan stealership wants over $300 to change 2016 Rouge SV transmission fluid. I will try what you showed me. Thanks a bunch.
Did that cooler ever make the fluid too cold? I wonder because there is usually an operating temperature range in which the CVT is supposed to operate the best.
Thanks for the video. 🙂👍
Planning on doing it soon on my 2017 Rogue (30K miles) BUT going the extra mile and changing the paper element filter by the radiator side of the bellhousing and the metal one inside the transmission oil pan.
Doing all I can to mitigate any chances of premature CVT failure.
If it does end up taking a shit on me it won't be for lack of maintenance and service. 😒👎
You're welcome, Bro. I dont think they have paper element filter by the radiator. It is a cooler and doesn't have filter. The filter inside tranny itself is just like a screen. Wow, you only has 30k on 2017. You dont drive it much.
@@NorCalOutdoor Wrong, Nissan Rogue And Xtrail Used 2 Filter, One In Pan, And Second Uper Level.!
@@pollorobot69 thank you. You are right. I have never opened thee upper level, but the screen filter. I thought they don't have that filter anymore as none of these filter replacement mentioned on the service manual. Item/part number# 31726-3JX0A
I just changed the filter under the pan and used amsoil. Like a new car now.
perfect video. thanks!!
You are very welcome
Amsoil is working great. Drain fluid and measure how much you took out refill what you took out. Replace crusher washer as well (uses same as oil pan)
Super Helpful!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video....could you provide an update on the performance of the Amsoil CVT fluid....thanks
You are very welcome, Brother. No complaint for thw fluid so far. My car still running good as before. Do not notice any upgrade or downgrade on performance that I can feel. Have driven almost 10k more since I changed it.
@@NorCalOutdoor Thank you
@@DrRimmer you are welcome
You are amazing thank you
Thank you very much for your very nice comment 🙏
Handy tips are what is most important. I was wondering about jackinghe car and keeping it level. Big hassle. Instead, I will just leave the car flat and get er done!
Nice
Great Job
You should try using the Amsoil Signature series oil with filter
I have this car but I also have a Toyota Camry that burns oil and this is the only oil that stopped the burning
Thanks. Good to know. Thanks for the info.
Thanks for your useful videos, you must to upload a coolant replacement … hellos from Costa Rica 🇨🇷👍🏼👍🏼
You're welcome, Oscar. Thanks for your suggestion. I will upload it next time I change my coolant again.
@@NorCalOutdoor I'm new to having a nissan rogue, how often do you change and top up on fluids?
@@Trinidargon Hi Jaret. I have never top up the fluid as it doesn't have dip stick to measure the fluid level. I change it netween 30k to 60k. The soonest is 30k, but normally I change it every 60k.
Very helpful video. Thank you! Just one question. Can you use the crush washer on Nissan for engine oil change drain plug as well? Or it’s for transmission fluid plug only?
I used it for both
I have heard good things about the Amsoil fluid and no I am not a dealer. I also do not use their products exclusively. In fact I was a Volkswagen owner and I used mostly German brands like Liqui Moly (Lubro Moly is the exact same oil but sold in Germany and Europe). Really OEM fluid or its equivalent (rumored to be made by Idemitsu) is just a good safe known fluid if you don't know what else can be used. There is also Valvoline and Castrol and some people seem to have had luck with them. I personally would try the Amsoil fluid even though it is not cheap simply because a lot of people seem to have had luck with it.
Thank you, curious if you also changed the filter as well?
If possible chamge the filter to..than you know you got the best oil flow..helps a lot with cooling the oil.
I'm just curious, but you showed the new fluid to be greenish in colour. Then when you top it up the bottle is different and so is the colour of the new fluid. Anyone else notice this? Otherwise, a great video to help others save money.
Hey my friend do you still recommend Amsoil? Did your car transmission shift smoother?
Honestly, I don't see any differences between those two. I think either one you choose will be okay. Just change our driving habits to cvt ways. Meaning, no sudden acceleration, drive with light loads if possible, do not tow more than 50% from max recommendations, no sudden stop if possible, etc 😊
Old fluid still looks somewhat still clean at 70k. I believe Nissan recommends at 60,000 for service. Thank you for the video.
Yes, not too bad. I believe the original color was red and it was dark brown. Nissan only recommends to check the fluids, but not drain and fill it. You're welcome and thanks for watching the video
I think is every 30 miles service
Maintenance schedule says, 30,000.I got my rogue sport at 47,000 changing it now at 48,000 after reading about jatco CVT
great video thank you so much ,,how the car drive with amsoil any problem
Thanks. No problem at all so far, but can't tell the difference
Just cracked 340,000 miles today on my 2015 Nissan Altima Cvt transmission and engine. Yeah!!!
Really? Congratulations. How aften do you change the tranny fluids?
@@NorCalOutdoor I changed the transmission fluid every 100,000 miles. Nissan dealership told me that it never needs changing
@@johnnymapalo8079 yeah, the manual doesn't say when the fluids need to be changed. Thanks for the info
Have you/how often have you changed the transmission fluid filters?
Hello NorCal. I have 2017 Nissan Rogue never change the TRANSMISSION FLUID. Is there any other way to check the Transmission fluid level instead of fill up whatever you took out? Thank you very much....Does not have any Dipstick as well.
You can buy this dip stick from Walmart, but not sure if it is 100% accurate. I have one and use if as reference after I filled it up.

Can you do a coolant flush next? Thanks!
Great content man! But I'm confused, some say you drain the transmission fuel, and then poor that same fluid back into the transmission. I have a 2018 Nissan Rouge sl. Can you please clarify that for me?
I should watch it again. I dont put the old fluid back. Only poured new one after I drained it. Sorry for the confusion.
Whatever he drained, that’s what he put in but new fluid.
So he drained 4.1 old fluid then he put in 4.1 new fluid.
@@reyperez3424 you got it right. What I meant, I put the same amount, but with new fluids
@@NorCalOutdoor thanks for the clarity. I'm just trying to avoid a transmission #slip
@@nakiabrown994 you're welcome
I have a 2015 SV AWD. It has 80k miles. I am not sure if the fluid has ever been changed since I just bought the car.
Would you recommend me doing a fluid drain and fill, or take it to the dealer and have them flush it.
Also would you recommend me changing the 2 filters?
Thanks.
Hi Stephan. Dealer doesn't recomend tranny fluids change on Nissan CVT, but I would drain and fill it. Specially you bought a used car. You don't know where and how the car was driven.
Do not flush it, though. Drain and fill should be enough. No need to replace the screen filter. Just the fluids.
Change the top filter on the side of the tranny. My 2115 mitsu. You take the battery out. It is a bit difficult but that filter is the one to change .
Thank you bro for the video i had a question, i jist wanted how to check the level of the oil because it leaked in my car and i cant be sure how much should i put in it. there is no dipstick to show the level of the oil. thanks for help

I've had my rogue for a few years, got it at 47k, now it's 84k, not sure if it's too late to drain and fill the transmission?
you do know there is a trans filter also? do you change your oil filter when you change your oil or do you think it's not necessary ?
Yes, I know. From the fluid I drained it, I don't think I need to change it. Maybe another 30k
Should I add an additive to my 2018 Nissan Rogue freshly change CVT oil ?
Thank you for a great video don't they have a filter don't you have to drop the pan
You're welcome, Bro
Thanks for the video. I still broke the clip on the fill tube cover. LOL. No biggie, I'll just replace it if I need to. It was pita for me. I went with Valvoline full synthetic CVT fluid, ~$7. 50/qt. About 43k miles on the clock. Drained ~3.5qts, replaced same. I was NOT going to pay ridiculous price for NS3. Thanks again.
You're welcome. The broken clip is fine, but i wouldn't use other than CVT NS3, though. You can get better price from NAPA for NS3 about $9.50. Here is the link:

@@NorCalOutdoor Thanks for the reply. You used Amsoil, I used Valvoline full synthetic. Without a Virgin Oil Analysis (VOA) no way of knowing if ANY aftermarket including Eneos is 'identical' to NS3. "Engineered for" not the same as 'identical" to. Note, Eneos doesn't claim that, or that it's OEM NS3. Seen it with Honda DW1 ATF too. Many claim "Engineered for" NONE are identical in VOA. Anyway, I'll let you know if the CVT quits with Valvoline. Not too concerned. Thanks again.

@@NorCalOutdoor Alright man, you know your going to have to do that service sometime 👍
Hello there. x tronic cvt transmission oil change does the authorized service offer? At how many thousand km does it need to be changed? There is a discussion here, the authorized service cvt says no oil change is required, but special service masters recommend changing it at 60 thousand km. What is the situation in your country? Can you give information?
Nissan officially doesn't recommend to change CVT transmission fluids. I have seen people with more than 200k miles (>320k km) without any issue. I think it depends how you drive it, load you carry with the car, temperature where you live, etc etc. I just don't want to take a risk as I live in hot weather during summer time. I would suggest to drain and fill every 90k km or so on normal condition (no towing, good weather, etc)
@@NorCalOutdoor Nissan in the service manual recommend 40k first cvt change at 30k first then 70k but look in your manual
@@lilgampla thank you. Not on my car service manual. Some dealers in the USA do not want to change it as it is not recommended.
@@NorCalOutdoor again just look in service manual each vehicle will be different
I was going to get the fluid changed at the dealership again but from the look of it, the plug looks like it was never touched so now I have doubts about taking to the dealership again after 35k miles for another CVT fluid change.
I would do it my self if I were you. No reason to pay extra for something we can do it easily
You need 4.3 quarts did you put the same level? Or you just put that whole gallon?
I put 4.3, but I also have a dip stick with a level indicator I bought online. It showed correct level.
Is there no way to check cvt level? My wife’s has 90k miles and when it warms up it makes a rattle at low rpms almost like a standard transmission would do if taking off in 3rd … any ideas would be appreciated.. I’m at a stand still … I was gonna check fluid level but I don’t seem to see how to check cvt fluid …
Sorry to hear that. If you install walmart apps and searh for Nissan CVT transmission dip stick, you will find some companies sell it online. I got mine from one of the comapny and seems to be accurate
It sucks, mine is like that, just a transmission cap! You have an overfill plug on the transmission and a fill plug. I seen in order to check you have to open the overfill plug when it's hot and pour fluid into the top plug until it starts coming out the bottom hole, when it stops dripping is how you know it's full.Honestly that sucks.I tried to use my oil dipstick and got no reading when cold, I might try my Pontiac dip stick and check cold if no reading I'll run it hot then check otherwise I want a damn dipstick!
How has it been running since you changed it to that type?
Honestly, I don't feel any differently. Feel the same as before. Good thing is no issue before and after.
Hi good morning! normally, with what mileage it is necessary to change the transmission oil of the Rogue 2016 S ?
thank you
Good Morning. I would. CVT is very fragile. If you do it yourself, it costs you a lot less than dealerships and keeps your tranny works well. Lot of people change it every 30k. You may want to use oem fluid if it is still under warranty (

I was concerned about using other fluids other than Nissan, so do you think other equivalent brands are ok also ?
It should be okay, in my opinion. Nissan is very basic fluids. As long as it is on the same type, it should be okay.
@@NorCalOutdoor thanks for your reply!
@@johnf.6942 You're very welcome
Does anyone know if a 2013 has a dipstick attached to the cap? I am helping a friend and i believe the 2013 is where they started with not having a dipstick on the cap! Also if no dipstick you need the 'charging' tube to properly fill to right level. Please help asap!!
I believe 2008-2013 Rogue has a dipstick

@@NorCalOutdoor Nah. It was giving me problems at first, so I put a transmission cooler on it at 80,000 miles and no more problems. I drove Uber and Lyft with it.
@@johnnymapalo8079 yeah, Im thinking to put a cooler, too. Hope that will help extend the life. Just bought a cooler for my son's Nissan Sentra, but haven't had a chance to install it yet.

No issues and ran great.
Hi I watch your videos here, I have a 2017 Nissan Rogue, I just bought it, I took it for a oil change at the Nissan service branch and I was told to bring the car for transmission fluid drain & refill witch will cost me $250 But after watching your videos I’m thinking of getting a guy friend to help me . I need the know the exact tools to to drain the oil under the car please. And what will you advance me to do. Cos I’m a lady. Lol
Hi, you can find tools and fluid you will need on the video's description.
@@NorCalOutdoor thank you so much.
will the dealer full drain it and change filters?
@@BillSW no, they will not change the filter. Just drain and fill, except you ask for it.
Hi... what do you think about Lucas CVT oil?
I won't use Lucas for Nissan CVT, and I haven't tried it yet.
Can you explain why didnt you change the 2 filters which is one cooler flter outside near the gearbox and another one strainer filter hidden inside the pan/cover you opened the bolt?
You don't need to change the screen inside the pan, except you have high mileage on it. Yes, you can change filter near the gear box if you want. Usually, I change the outside filter every 2 times. Screen inside the pan after 90k to 120k.

So it's mostly like changing the motor oil, right?
Pretty much like that
I need the torque spec for transmission filter on a nissan rogue 2016
Do you run the vehicle to temp before changing or can you change it while the engine is cold ? I know transmission fluid expands when hot
I drove the car about 2 blocks from home before I changed it. You only need to bring the temp between 95F to 113F when changing transmission fluids.
Is there any other way to check the Transmission fluid level instead of fill up whatever you took out?
I could not understand the pronunciation of where you got the non-dealer drain washer.
Got it from O'Reilly
Can u timestamp where the transmission dipstick is. I couldn't find it. That's all I needed nothing but that.

1) How many miles do you recommend before changing the transmission fluid?
&
2) Do you recommend replacing the transmission filter and gasket when changing the transmission fluid?
1. Would say between 30k-60k
2. I drained my cvt fluid on 3 Nissan cars at 60k, the fluids weren't too bad. So, I would say you can change the filter after 90k-120k, but if you want to get it done as same time you drain/fill the fluid is not a bad idea either.
Thank You.

@@NorCalOutdoor did u change filters? from dealer or other company?
I got only about 3.75 qts once drained (it was brown at 59000 miles) and was planning on taking into the dealer for a full flush at 65K miles. I did the oil change myself like I do my Mercedes, it was a breeze. I bought 4 qts of Castrol CVT synthetic to replace what I drained.
It is about right. Should be less than 4 quarts for drain and fill. Full flash will need almost 10 qrts

Older, in the spring
@@jonmo2694 Great, but how will you control how much fluids out?
When are you supposed to change the filter in the CVT?
About 50k but if you drain it often you probably would be good at75-100k
I don't understand why didn't you change the filter what good is putting good fluid in there without changing the filter just my thought
Thank you for your suggestion. There are few reasons that make me think to change it on next fluid change:
1. This is a CVT transmission. Less friction than regular one
2. I didn't change whole fluid, but only partial
3. I usually do not change filter every time I do transmission drain and fill, but after every 2 or 3 times.
4. When I saw the old fluid, it wasn't too bad.
But I agree with you, better to change the filter and get all done at once.
No filter to change? Why not?
After how many miles do I have to change the transmissions oil of Nissan rogue S 2016 ?….
Rule of tumbs, between 30k to 60k should be fine
Is this a DIY thing for someone with moderate mechanical capabilities? I change the regular oil myself.
No, Bro. You should be able to do it 👍
@@NorCalOutdoor I have a Nissan Rogue 2015 with about 65k miles on it and have never a transmission fluid change, should i do it this way or get it flushed? Also, got some ramps i use to get underneath the car to change the oil, is it recommended to use ramps for this fluid change given where the drain plug is? Also, can u link me to the transmission fluid you recommend?
@@Pingaheimer drain and fil should be enough. You can use your ramps, that is fine. Make sure you measure the fuild comes out from the transmission.

Hello, it fine to mix amsoil cvt fluid in nissan ns 3 fluid? Did you do repeating drains to get more amsoil cvt or just once time 4L.
How is your post experience, it amsoil working well? Please replay, i am planning to drain 4L of ns3 with amsoil in my nissan car.
Hi. Yes, I did it twice. I don't have any issue with the amsoil. I did it on my Nissan Pathfinder as well.
@@NorCalOutdoor thanks, it is fine to drain once and drive some 30K km or 4 years and then drain again or should I drain twice at a time. One drain can be 60 percent of new amsoil oil in my car as 4L of drain out of 6.9L total.
@prasad9732 you're welcome. You can drain it, then drive it for a while, then drain it again if you don't have any problem with the cost. I did it in a 30-mile interval.
@@NorCalOutdoor how to contact you? I will do it 2nd drain after 30k km drive. You gave me the confidence to drain. Nissan dealer saying its a sealed transmission, and cvt fluid is life time transmission it should not be changed. My car run 68k miles. And I am noticing power lacking and high rpm specially from zero speed to 20km speed acceleration.
@prasad9732 yeah, the manual said it is a lifetime oil. Some people ran it beyond 150k without any issue, but some broke before 80k. I do not believe oil can be used for a long time. Heat will burn the oil slowly.
You can contact me here on UA-cam. Thanks
Did you change the transmission filter ?
Not at that time. They didn't have the part when I went to Nissan. Beside, the tranny fluid was not too bad
You used two different colour transmission Oil blue and browish why?
Only one, Brother. The dark color from used oil.
Why no dip stick ,my car 2019 Qashqai has dip stick,and did you clean the magnet from inside and change filter.?
It was Nissan decision not to put dip sticks on most model during that year. My 2015 Pathfinder also doesn't have a dip stick.
Yes, I wiped out the magnet, but I didn't change the filter.
@@NorCalOutdoor i though the magnet is inside the pan
@@3DOM65 I thought you meant the bolt/nut itself. It has magnet to catch small metals from frictions on the gears. Most transmission cars have magnet on the bolt.
After how many miles I have to change transmission fluid my rogue 2018 is 27000 miles
I would suggest between 30k-60k
The owners manual says change every 5 years or 60k miles. You can't check it because there is no dipstick.
Actually, my manual doesn't suggest changing it. That is one of the reasons Nissan doesn't put on manual (in the USA) I think. It is your decision for your car. I just don't believe we have fuilds that can live for a long period of time after working on heats and frictions.
@@NorCalOutdoor I have a 2018 andy manual says that. It also says have the dealer do it and not attempt myself...lol
@Robert Proctor Ah okay. Yeah, I didn't know the 2018 has that. Thanks for sharing.
Will I get more fluid drain on Ramps or level?
I don't think will be much difference as the transmission plug is on the middle bottom of the pan. I would like to keep the car level for transmission fluids change.
2017 nissan rogue owner. Do I need both amsoil and NS-2?
No, just one of them
Where did you buy the crush washer for the drain plug?
Hi Scott, I got it from O'reilly.

How did the amsol cvt fluid work out ???
@@deniscleary13 I don't feel much different. Everything feels the same. I don't have any issue when I did drain and fill, so hard to tell. I will drain and fill it again after 30k and will see how the fluid got burned.
Thanks fella I appreciate you taking the time to reply and keep us posted please and thank
Kind regards from Dublin city Ireland 🇮🇪
@@deniscleary13 You're very welcome, Bro. Glad to know someone from Iceland watched it 😊. Stay warm and safe there
Can you provide a link i wanna purchase this Amsoil CVT?
I don't see a gallon jug, but only 1 Qrt.www.amsoil.com/p/synthetic-cvt-fluid-cvt/
They say there is a filter for CVT transmission fluid. How do you change the filter? Thanks.
No filter just a screen. Changing can do more harm than good. Cvt are not under high pressure like oil filters so don’t need replacing.
@@karbs76 Some even say there are 2 filters. One in the oil pan, one on the side like a screw in filter. And there is a magnet somewhere.
@@batchimed7392 magnet is in the pan
The other paper filter is behind the oil cooler
That has to be changed.
Mine has a paper filter behind driver side wheel near the wire connector as well as the metal screen filter in the pan. 2017 Nissan Sentra SV
how do you check the fluid level with no dip stick
We can't, except we have after-market dip stick or make one.
So how many miles now is it still working
Just hit 70k about 2 days ago. Still good. Thanks for watching amd please subscribe
i got a dip stick for my boys 2019 an my 2018...only 10 bucks on ebay
If you don't use OEM fluid they will screw you on the warranty it's happened to me. 🤔🤦
You are so right. Sorry to hear that. Mine was more than 60k, so it is out of warranty already.
You can use a fluid that meets specs, unless they provide you the fluid free, that fact has been proven in court. If you use a fluid not to spec then you are screwed.
No you will not, just make sure you are using NS3 CVT fluid
I agee James!! In the event something goes wrong; you're pretty much on your own. I often tell folks, wait until you hit that 60,000 miles, before using any other fluid outside of what's recommended in the manual.
How many quarts do you need for just drian and refill?
I used 5 quarts
@@NorCalOutdoor I changed it today (Just drain and refill) and it only came out 3 quarts and 20 oz My car is 2016 rouge. I used Amsoil 4 quarts Jug.
@@sado2015 at the end of video, I measured my old fluids was about 4.3 qts. Almost about a quart different from what you got.
@@sado2015 did u warm up tranny before drain?
@@BillSW I watched another video that said ,you get more out when cold
This is not a proper oil change in cvt. You had to change two cvt filters. One changes when the pallet is removed, the second is located on the outside of the cvt.
You can change the filter on the front, or you can change the screen too if you want. It depends on your mileage.
The most difficult part for me is to take the lid off.... even though I watched at least 10 videos, I jsut couldn't get if off.....LOL
Really? 😃 once you have known the trick, it will be easier next time
@@NorCalOutdoor Hopefully... will give it another go this weekend :)
@@NorCalOutdoor getting really difficult to pull out the cap😢😢😢
@Junyan Zhang sorry to hear that. Make sure you use a small flat screwdriver. You just need to find the right spot to push it. Use flash light to see it better.
@@NorCalOutdoor Hi mate, don't even say sorry haha. I'll give it another go later...
Can we just add the fluid ad much as we can ( when the trans is full, the fluid will come out from the hole where you add the fluid )
You don't want to do that. Too much fluid can make the fluid foamy, leaking over heating, reduce lubrication and slow down acceleration/cracfsaft rotation and so many other issues
@@NorCalOutdoor yea, thats what the technical guy on Nissan dealer in Vietnam told me when he is asked: how do you now the fluid quantity is correct. He just reply: when you see the fluid come out of the hole. There is a machine to full flash the fluid at the dealer, it pump in and drain out the oil at the same time, does this machine help to ensure the quantity of fluid inside the Trans is unchanged?
@@rongasia yes, if you are using that machine, should be okay. It can measure both ways
@@NorCalOutdoor Thank you, just worry about the quantity, I trust the machine lol. my Xtrail ( Rogue in your market) just 20.000 miles but already 4 years old. so considering to flash fluid in next year.
@@rongasia you're welcome. Not sure if flushing is needed. I thik drain and fill should be enough for your car
Can you put in a link for the amsoil please
Can't put commercial link, but if you search on google: amsoil cvt fluid ns-3, you should be able to find it
@@NorCalOutdoor it's sold out on amsoil. But thx for responding man
@@wiicdemon069k8 Wow.. sorry to hear that
