When should the transmission fluid be changed for the Qashqai?
1 Answers
Qashqai transmission fluid should be changed every 2 years or between 40,000 to 60,000 kilometers. Below are some details about transmission fluid replacement: 1. Replacement interval: The timing mainly depends on usage conditions. Manual transmissions should be replaced every 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers, while automatic transmissions typically require replacement every 60,000 kilometers. If frequently driving in stop-and-go traffic conditions, it's recommended to change around 40,000 kilometers. 2. CVT version Qashqai: The maintenance manual specifies CVT fluid replacement at 100,000 kilometers because the fluid quality deteriorates by this mileage. Since CVT transmissions have higher requirements for fluid quality, it's not recommended to replace it outside; it's best to have it changed at an authorized dealership.
