Hi Bro,

I suggest you change your CVT gear oil at TCM.

Reason being ,if anything happens to your gearbox and TCM don't have your service record, it's going to cost more than what you saved by doing your service elsewhere

Cheers

Just changed mine at autosaver last weekends, NS-2 oil (for premium model), understand that better not to use any other aftermarket product.

Hello,

No need to monitor so long, as long the shifting is smooth, should be alright.

hi bro, thanks for the advise.

Hi all, do take note that 1 full container of 4L NS-2 oil may not be enough. For me, go back to autosaver to
top up (maybe another 1 L) but it's FOC :thumbsup:

understand from autosaver, need to use original nissan brake pads else u might encounter some sound should u use other after market product but not sure anyone has tried other b4. Pay S$125 for the front brake pads.
