7at sluggish or slipping in manual mode

Fountainhead · 08-09-2014, 04:08 PM

From what I've read changing the AT fluid involves the Nissan software suite and a laptop running it and to get ALL the old fluid out takes quite a number of gallons, due to the torque convertor holding quite a bit and not draining when the pan is removed. There is no filler gauge or way to tell if you're at the right amount when refilling.

Only need consult 3 for the trans temp:
DYI: AT Fluid Change Steps

I'd just let out as much as you can, and refill the bitch
