Checking the oil level
1. Checking the oil level should be done at the operating temperature of the automatic transmission (at oil temperature 50-80°С). Warming up is achieved after a 10-minute drive in the urban traffic cycle.
2. Position the vehicle on a flat, level surface.
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. While the engine is running at idle speed. press the brake pedal and sequentially move the selector lever through all ranges from position P to position 1 (or from position P to position L).
5. With the selector lever in the P or N position, check the oil level using the dipstick on the HOT scale.
Attention:
Before removing the oil dipstick, unlock the stopper.
Insert the feeler gauge and secure the stopper to the ring.
When changing the oil in the automatic transmission, check the level on the COLD scale (at oil temperature Z0-50°C). After replacing, recheck the oil level on a warm gearbox using the HOT scale.
Use a paper towel to wipe the dipstick.

Change of oil
Replacement frequency:
RE4F04A (V):
For individual and commercial use of the car: after a major overhaul.
When operating in severe conditions: after every 60,000 km of run.
Note:
The need to change the oil is determined using a special tester for automatic transmission oil (LS54900000).
Green zone of the tester: oil is in normal condition.
Yellow zone: needs to be replaced.
Red zone: need to be replaced.
RE0F06A (V):
For individual and commercial use of the car: after every 60,000 km of run.
Note: Oil condition cannot be determined using the LS54900000 tester.
Steps for changing the oil
Oil change is carried out with the engine running at idle. Pour fresh oil through the fill tube while draining old oil from the oil cooler return hose.
When the color of the drained oil becomes the same as that of fresh oil, the replacement procedure can be considered completed. The normal volume for replacing old oil with fresh oil is 3-5 nominal volumes.
Oil used:
- RE4F04A (V): Nissan Matic Fluid D
- RE0F06A (V): Nissan CVT Fluid NS-1
Nominal volume:
- RE4F04A (V): Approx. 9.4 l
- RE0F06A (V): Approx. 8.1 l
Attention:
RE4F04A (V): Use only Nissan Matic Fluid D. Mixing genuine oil with oils from other manufacturers, as well as mixing Matic Fluid D and Matic Fluid C oils, may not only reduce performance, but also cause serious damage to the automatic transmission.
RE0F06A (V): Use only Nissan CVT Fluid NS-1. When mixing branded oil with oils from other manufacturers, as well as when using Matic Fluid D and Matic Fluid C oils, not only a decrease in performance is possible, but also a serious breakdown of the CVT.
Use paper towels, do not use fluffy cloths.
After replacing, check the oil level.
