03 Sedan AT Fluid Check ?
I went to check my AT this evening and to my surprise there is no dipstick on this G? WTF?
Is this correct, I have the shop manual and they call for using a "special" tool to check the level. However after reading in other forums, some let on that there is a level stick on the charge tube cap?
Does anyone know the story on this? Has anyone found an alternative? I suppose I could do a complete change and measure what's taken out as a start. Sure would be nice to have the level indicator though.

I have a question for the early 2003s...
If you bought the replacement tranny dipstick do you leave that dipstick in, or do you keep that elsewhere? I wasn't sure whether to keep it in like other trannys. I have mine in my trunk because I was wary about keeping it installed in the charge pipe.

according to the FSM, it says to remove it...of course thats cuz it is a "special service tool"
I just wasn't sure if there was a different design in the charge pipe which would put the dipstick in a bad location. I was told that they are different charge pipes from a parts manager at infiniti.

I think that's more to do with the "customer" not driving off with the "special service tool"
I doubt the location of the dipstick inside the transmission is any different than a 350z or a newer G35 that has the dipstick.
Of course, I don't KNOW that. It just seems stupid that it would be.
