How to drain and replace transaxle fluid and Automatic Transmission Filter on Nissan Quest?

At the specified time intervals, the transaxle fluid should be drained and replaced. Since the fluid will remain hot long after driving, perform this procedure only after everything has cooled down completely. Before beginning work, purchase the specified transaxle fluid and a new filter. Other tools necessary for this job include jackstands to support the vehicle in a raised position, a drain pan capable of holding several quarts, newspapers and clean rags. Raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. With a drain pan in place, remove the drain plug, allow the fluid to drain fully, then remove the pan bolts. Note: Measure the amount of fluid drained and record it; when refilling the transaxle, start with that amount. Carefully pry the transaxle pan loose with a screwdriver and detach the pan and gasket. Carefully clean the gasket surface of the transaxle to remove all traces of the old gasket and sealant. Drain the remaining fluid from the transaxle pan, clean the pan with solvent and dry it with compressed air or a clean rag. Be careful not to lose the magnets. Remove the bolts and detach the filter. Install the new filter. Make sure the gasket surface on the transaxle pan is clean, then install the magnet and a new gasket. Put the pan in place against the transaxle and install the bolts. Working around the pan tighten each bolt a little at a time until the final torque figure. Don't overtighten the bolts! Lower the vehicle and add the same amount of new automatic transmission fluid that was measured through the filler tube. With the shift lever in Park and the parking brake set, run the engine at a fast idle, but don't race it. Move the shift lever through each gear and back to Park. Check the fluid level and add some, as necessary, to bring it to the appropriate level. Caution: Add fluid a little at a time to avoid overfilling. Check under the vehicle for leaks during the first few trips.

Nissan Quest Automatic Transmission Filter

The Nissan Quest Automatic Transmission Filter prevents dirt and grit from circulating in the fluid before it can cause damage to internal components and parts. The Automatic Transmission Filter is a filter that is placed above the sump inside the transmission pan. Its function is to filter out metal shavings, clutch dust, and road debris. This ensures the fluid that is pumped under pressure for the operation of the gears remains clean, cool, and has the ability to build full hydraulic force. The Automatic Transmission Filter reaches capacity and become dirty, causing restriction of flow to clutches and bands, as well as tiny valve-body passages. All of this can starve the lubrication and pressure needed for smooth operation. Due to this, Nissan suggests the regular replacement of the Automatic Transmission Filter and fluid, a simple service that keeps shifts crisp, prevents overheating, and protects against expensive internal damage. Throughout every Quest generation, a single flat replaceable filter element with pickup tube and gasket has sufficed so drivers won't have to rummage through a variety of designs. By replacing the Automatic Transmission Filter at the suggested interval, it can prevent contamination, maintain consistent pump pressure, and enable any Nissan Quest transmission to serve efficiently for longer. Additionally, the Quest's design ensures optimal performance and reliability.

All our parts are offered at unbeatable prices and are supported by the manufacturer's warranty. In addition, we offer quick shipping to have your parts delivered to your door step in a matter of days.

Q: How to drain and replace transaxle fluid and Automatic Transmission Filter on Nissan Quest?
A:
At the specified time intervals, the transaxle fluid should be drained and replaced. Since the fluid will remain hot long after driving, perform this procedure only after everything has cooled down completely. Before beginning work, purchase the specified transaxle fluid and a new filter. Other tools necessary for this job include jackstands to support the vehicle in a raised position, a drain pan capable of holding several quarts, newspapers and clean rags. Raise the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. With a drain pan in place, remove the drain plug, allow the fluid to drain fully, then remove the pan bolts. Note: Measure the amount of fluid drained and record it; when refilling the transaxle, start with that amount. Carefully pry the transaxle pan loose with a screwdriver and detach the pan and gasket. Carefully clean the gasket surface of the transaxle to remove all traces of the old gasket and sealant. Drain the remaining fluid from the transaxle pan, clean the pan with solvent and dry it with compressed air or a clean rag. Be careful not to lose the magnets. Remove the bolts and detach the filter. Install the new filter. Make sure the gasket surface on the transaxle pan is clean, then install the magnet and a new gasket. Put the pan in place against the transaxle and install the bolts. Working around the pan tighten each bolt a little at a time until the final torque figure. Don't overtighten the bolts! Lower the vehicle and add the same amount of new automatic transmission fluid that was measured through the filler tube. With the shift lever in Park and the parking brake set, run the engine at a fast idle, but don't race it. Move the shift lever through each gear and back to Park. Check the fluid level and add some, as necessary, to bring it to the appropriate level. Caution: Add fluid a little at a time to avoid overfilling. Check under the vehicle for leaks during the first few trips.
