2009-2014 Nissan Maxima CVT Fluid Change

O que você precisa

    • Drive the car prior to performing the CVT fluid change. The fluid should be warm when it is changed.

    • Park the car on a flat surface. While the car is running, keep your foot on the brakes and move the gear shift through all of gears: P, R, N, D1, D2, D3.

    • Put the car in Park and turn the car off.

    • Remove the transmission fluid dipstick.

    • Using a flathead screwdriver, push in the black plastic tab of the dipstick and pull it out.

    • Using a clean rag, wipe the fluid off and then reinsert it. However, insert it backwards so that it doesn't lock again.

    • Pull the dipstick out again and verify that the fluid mark is at the second notch at the bottom of the dipstick.

    • Keep the dipstick out of the drain hole.

    • Move the drain pan underneath the transmission drain pan.

    • Approximately five quarts of CVT fluid will be drained.

    • Use a 00mm socket to remove the drain bolt.

    • TIP: Use the socket to loosen the bolt and then use your fingers to finish removing the bolt. This will help prevent the fluid from leaking onto the socket wrench.

    • Leave the fluid drain for approximately 10-15 minutes.

    • Insert a new crush washer onto the drain bolt.

    • Insert the bolt into the transmission and tighten it with you fingers.

    • Use a torque wrench to tighten the bolt to xx ft/lbs.

    Tighten drain plug bolt to between 5 to 6.5 ft-lbs or, as tight as you can hand tight with a wrench or socket wrench. Over tightening your bolt on any drain pain too tight will often cause the bolt to be easily strip and or, round off when it’s time to change the fluids again.

    • Reinsert and lock the dipstick.

    • Take the car for a drive. Don't drive too aggressively.

    Make sure to run through the gears during test drive to get the fluid flowing through all parts of the system. Add aditional fluid after test drive if needed. It shouldn’t be that much however after test driving and running through the gears to make sure the new fluid is circulated, the dipstick read-out may be lowered from the actual suggested FULL indicator or the dipstick.
