That does work for the PS, I used it for awhile until I blew a PS line and just add the shop use the OEM Nissan stuff because they gave it to me for free.

It doesn't give a spec for the ATF to use?

I was speaking to the power steering fluid - I use the Red Line D4 ATF.
For the automatic transmission, it just says "Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF"

I bought some in anticipation of installing a $hittymoto power steering reservoir nearly two years ago. I never installed the PS reservoir but I did do the PS flush. I've been running it for about 20K miles now.

I was also referring to the power steering fluid. Nissan requires ATF for that, not PS fluid, correct?

Like I said, the FSM says "Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent". Although, the footnote does say "DEXRON VI type ATF may also be used"

Looks like i stirred up the pot here! haha
only reason i made that comment was my last car (IS300 manual) went through three transmissions. i trust the engineers at nissan and figured id be all kosher and use their stuff just in case. redline is a great product! i used it as engine oil for 20k miles. (side note: when i bought dif fluid from nissan they just gave me some full sythn Valvoline...) Last edited by fuct; 02-20-2014 at 01:05 PM. |
