At Transmission Oil For V35 Coupe?

[ja5on350]

Hi Guys,

I did a search for Transmission oil in this forum and I couldnt find anything to confirm for a 2003 V35 Coupe AT, is it the same transmission oil as the 350Z? J-Matic?

I'm approaching 70k's, and my mechanic told me the oil should get changed when it starts to go very dark, which mine is..

Has anyone ever done a change on an AT? how much oil do you need and how much did it cost?

Cheers.

yes same as 350z tranmission oil and get it from Nissan only.

Had my trans oil changed by nissan when I hit 65k mind you they only used one bottel so im guessing they only drained the pan, a full flush should use 2 bottles and yeah only use Nissan J matic

Nissan quote me $260 to change my 6mt transmission oil. For a full flush it's $460. I was thinking if I should just buy the oil from Nissan and take it somewhere else to do it if that's cheaper. Can workshops do a full flush?

Yep, Matic J or Nulon 100% synthetic transmission fluid (I have used this for the past 60,000kms - no worries)

Matic D or Dextron III will destroy your clutch packs faster than you can accelerate to 100kms.

Take it to another Nissan Dealership.

Nissan Ferntree Gully in Vic do a full flush on their machine with Matic J (this includes the transfer case for my car - AWD) for $275. You should also ask for their additive pack to be used in the flush (all new Nissan have this added prior to sale).

Thanks for the tip I will give them a ring!

haha, indeed!

I was merely quoting what they charged me for the Matic-J flush + additive satchel.

One would think that a manual box flush would be about the same price or possibly less due to the gear oil required.
