he didn’t explain how to take the dipstick off!!!! Dipshit

2013 they changed ,different method, different fluid (NS-3) , not interchangable.

I have heard you can use that one. Is it any better than with the stuff from the dealer? I hear these are not too finicky about fluid. Just keep regular automatic transmission fluid away from them, it has no place in a CVT and will ruin them.

+1 for Castrol… Triax is considered very good too… just make sure your fluid type is right… either NS-2 or NS-3 depending on model and year

Yes, the rouge is a smaller version of the pahfinder

Yes you can, just remember it will be 5° or so off

So what temp does it need to be on a infared thermometer to top off?

@@pualesu4547 98-113 (+/- 5) check reading soon as after fluid came off

Hahaha

You should capture the fluid being drained and save.

@@chucknorris8966 lol

Don’t mix fluids!!

Same glad that I wasn’t the only one

I have mixed castro cvt with ns2 (its what was required) and had the car for over 90k miles and still shifted perfect after i have sold it

@@dabarboza51 ???? you absolutely mix transmission fluids. Why? because unless you flush, there is no way to get all the fluid out since 2/3 of it stays within the torque converter and such. They are ns2 compliant so it shouldnt matter if you mix

Buy stock fluid from the dealership, do not mix especially with a finicky cvt. 2 fluid that must be exact swaps are cvt fluid and coolant.. keep her purring lol

definitely it works

lifetime so you buy another car sooner ha

I would like to know the same for my rogue sport 2018 AWD

checked yesterday, it's an o-ring

Use CVTZ50 and a good quality obd2 plug. It tells Cvt temp and deterioration

Should be blue, or greenish blue when used for a long time. If they said it in the off dealer service they may hoped to scam you.

I want to know too

Looks like a launch to me

Hi maybe you can buy a OBD-II and found APP like FORSCAN Lite ....evenmore. hope can help you.

U need an obd scanner that can read transmission temp.. The reason for this is, the transmission fluid level is checked when the trans fluid reaches 98-113 Fahrenheit.. If you allow the fluid to heat-up to operating temperature 122-176 F.. the oil will expand, and give the false impression you have overfilled.

You can use a lazar type thermometer. Aim it at the trans pad. U will get exact same reading as with a scan tool.

@@mattallen8198 are you sure it won’t be off ?

@@carlosesparzavazquez4753 it should at least be ballpark. I've done it several times that way. What I got with the Lazar pointer read the same with my scan tool. If you're worried just use the scan tool.

Id be willing to bet that thos engine/trans doesnt get above the 213° mentioned, so if the temp gauge is warm inside the vehicle wait another 5 or 10 min and your trans fuild will be between the 119 and 213°

I just measured what I took out (all of 4 quartz). Filled with 4qts STP synthetic CVT and works perfect. I'll warm it up w/o the scan tool and try this next step and see how it goes as a purchased a 5th quart anyway. Thanks for the helpful video. Also made a dipstick out of tube before I started and am on the same mark as before I started with 4qts.

Brian Baker Read in some forums it shouldn’t need more than 25 lbs-ft. So a good snug fit with the socket should do, at least that’s what it sounds like

The engine drain plug is 25ft lbs, so Thats where Id start. Its probably the same or real similar

15lbs-ft for cvt drain plug, should be the same for fluid level plug as well.

No reason for him to tell...look it up in service information, you will find it there 👍

I had a 2007 Sentra. In the San Fran Bay area it was between 7 to 8 thousnd for a rebuild installed. Due to high labor cost and most trans rebuilders wont touch them.

um, if you watched the video he says very clearly that it is started

Roughly 4 1/2 according to dealer

On all Nissan model years "prior to" 2013 using NS-2: Fluid level should be checked with the fluid warmed up to 122°F to 176°F at the dipstick with engine running in park with the car leveled.. If you changed the fluid or added fluid, run the transmission through all the gears and back to park before checking fluid level. When checking a 2013 or newer model Nissan CVT, the NS-3 CVT trans fluid will need to be checked at the fluid level check bolt on the transmission housing while the engine is running in park and vehicle is level.. Again, if you changed/added fluid, run through all the gears and back to park. You will need an OBD tool that can read the transmission fluid temp! The level of the trans fluid should be checked at 98-113 degrees F. If you allow the transmission fluid to heat-up to normal operating temp 122°F to 176°F, the fluid will expand too much, and will give the false impression that you have overfilled. Again, the trans fluid level must be checked at 98-113 degrees F.. and at that temperature, the fluid should be a fast drip or very fine stream overflowing from the fluid level check bolt hole.

check this one kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ormAnpx2qNXId5c.html

@@damoncrowfeather4655 "fluid level check bolt hole" are you referring to the large allen on the side or the 5mm inside of the drain plug?

@@pearlrival3124 Are you describing a Nissan CVT trans or a Toyota transmission? I ask, because Toyota transmissions used to have a 3/8 allen type plug drain on the side of the trans, but they now have the drain on the bottom and have a allen type plastic standpipe screwed into the drain, which allows for the proper level of the trans fluid. On a 2013-2018 Nissan CVT, the transmission pan has a 19 mm drain bolt.. and the 14 mm overflow bolt is located on the transmission housing. if you are laying under the vehicle on your belly facing the rear of the car, looking up at the pan drain bolt.. you will look just to the left of the pan drain bolt, on the transmission housing, and you will see the 14 mm overflow bolt. It's hard to describe here, but just do a google search for image of Nissan cvt trans fluid level bolt location.. and you'll get a better idea of the location.

@@damoncrowfeather4655 nissan versa note 2015. in fact it does have a 3/8 allen bolt on the side of the housing closest to the tire-well. similar to a rear end you can fill fluid until it flows out of the bolt hole cold or you can use drain plug method at the correct temperature. you seem to be savvy: its not easy to be within the specified range 93-112. the overflow bolt you are referring to is underneath the car. most diy wont have a lift so that would be considered last option.

😂

Nissan CVT Transmission Is Definitely A Horrible Design,..And In Most Cases You Will Be Replacing The Trans Before You Get 50000 Miles!....Honda's CVTs Are A Little More Reliable And Far Better Than Nissan CVTs, I Would Rather Have A 5 Speed Manual Or A Regular 4 Speed Automatic,..Nothing Fancy Or To High Tech.

@@derrickwoodard461 im at 285k miles whit my nissan cvt

They did this on purpose so you can go out and purchase a new vehicle

​@@leondetailing2415 Makes you go back to dealership for transmission fluid change also makes you feel the pain in your wallet for not getting their "extended warranty." I needed a new transmission at 32,000 miles at 5.2 years. JUST after their warranty. Buy Toyota or Honda. NEVER touch a Nissan.

@Aidan Bhuiyan the oil gets dark when used......

I have the same. No dipstick anywhere. 😡

You have to depress the tab on the fill tube while pulling.

Put a small flat thin screwdriver from underneath the clip to lift it out of the hole .. I could not get this from the top myself

Yes bro I'm at the hat point now I don't wanna break it

People might still need this information if they lost fluid. I had a hose that got a hole in it, and I needed to know how much fluid to add

I still got my 1986 Chevrolet Caprice

@@donkiko6708Great. Daily driver?

There isnt a dipstick. Just a cap
