Automotic Transmission Life
 

Do you think the automatic transmission life is shortened by using the paddle shifters extensively versus just leaving it drive?

Probably not, Nissan's automatic transmissions are pretty bulletproof.

:iagree:They make excellent automatics!

It wont. Even old car which was a bmw, I literally use manunatic mode all the time for 3 years and the tranny was still performing like it was brand new.

Most important is change its oil after 30K km.

Not 100% sold on the auto tranny. I'm on my 2nd one already. The 1st one was replaced by the dealer under warranty at 10,000 miles and now at 34,000 this one is starting to act up again. it makes a loud thud going in/out of gear.

The 370Z automatic has no recommended oil change interval.

But we can change it like regular A/T,30 k km a guideline.

Transmission is a sealed unit making it maint free. No fluid change is necessary.

^^^ IT IS A SEALED UNIT BUT i CHANGE MINE EVERY 60k km

read triple's sig, rule #1 jeez

lets see I have already gone threw one trans and on my second. I will change it every 60K. But I am SC'd so I am putting a bit more tq and hp to it.

Gonna need to open it up with the new valve body

LOL I am actually still waiting to put the built trans back in the car that i sent to GTM.

yours is the 7 speed right?
