What brand is the Murano transmission fluid?

[VanJudah]

Murano transmission fluid is of the NS-3 brand. Transmission fluid is an oil product that keeps the gear system clean, lubricates to extend the life of the transmission device, and provides effective lubrication even at low temperatures, reducing oil loss under harsh operating conditions. For the Nissan Murano, it is recommended to change the transmission fluid every 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers, with approximately 5 liters of fluid typically required for a replacement. Notes on checking and replacing Nissan Murano transmission fluid: 1. Regularly check whether the automatic transmission fluid level is normal. The method for checking automatic transmission fluid differs from engine oil; engine oil is checked in a cooled state, while transmission fluid needs to be preheated to about 50°C. Then, after shifting the gear lever through each position for 2 seconds and placing it in park, the normal fluid level on the dipstick should be between the maximum and minimum lines. If it is insufficient, add the same quality fluid promptly. 2. Generally, transmission fluid should be replaced every 80,000 kilometers or every 3 years. Additionally, due to differences in transmission types among various vehicle models, the amount of transmission fluid required varies. For specific maintenance intervals and quantities, refer to the 'self-service maintenance' function. 3. When replacing transmission fluid, it is essential to use the same type as the original vehicle. That is, manual transmission vehicles can only use manual transmission fluid (also called gear oil), while automatic transmission vehicles (including semi-automatic ones) must use automatic transmission fluid, ensuring the correct fluid specification is selected. 4. Different brands of automatic transmissions have different friction coefficients, so Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) varies and should not be mixed. Mixing ATF can damage the transmission's friction plates, leading to clutch or brake slippage, and in severe cases, can destroy the friction plates.
