I've read differing info. Am I stuck only using Nissan fluids? Or, can I use something from Motul (preferred as my independent shop is a Motul dealer). Our '05 FX35AWD has 42k miles and the fluids were inspected at 30k but not changed.
 
I called my local dealer and they told me I dont need to do the Diff. But the tranny was done at 30k. It is highly recommended to use Nissan's trans fluid because it has the correct viscosity. It will void your warranty if they find out you put something other than the correct Nissan trans fluid.
 
I just do the fluid transmission change and transfer case at Penzoil. What i like with is they have a machine that use air compression so the amount of out and in it's the same. They can not miss to put more or less fluid for the transmission, it's take about 10 liters. For the transfer case it's about 2-3 liters. I cross my finger that i don't have problem later. ohh and don't forget to use the exact fluids for both.
