2012 Fluids change at 1650 miles
Spent the morning changing out the transmission, differential and engine oil. Pretty straightforward, no real gotchas to the job...
Changed the engine oil to Mobil 1, factory Nissan filter. At 5K miles, will change over the Redline oil. Didn't notice any difference in smoothness or oil temps to the factory fill. Changed the transmission fluid to Redline MT85. Immediately noticed MUCH smoother shifting. Less notchy shifting...slides into each gear noticeably easier. WELL worth the change. Changed the rear diff to Redline 75W90 gear oil. Drained the old oil and it was pretty black with a substantial amount of metallic particles on the drain plug. Probably a good thing to change it out as early as I did... |
