The Machines the dealer(at least mine) has do not do this. They use the transmission pump psi to pump in new fluid at the same rate as the old. They do not force fluid in there, There are some machines that do and I would stay away from them.

 

Thanks guys I appreciate all the feedback I checked my oil today after work and theirs almost nothing their so. Tomorrow I 'Am for sure going to go get it changed..As far as checking the transmission I couldn't check it because I couldn't find it maybe because my engine has a cover over it,but I'll search to find out where it is.Thanks again for all the replies I feel very welcomed.thank you.

 

I called Lithia Nissan of Fresno. Said they will charge me 68$ To do the oil, and use synthetic...But I'am watching this DIY video & I Might just attempt to do it myself.

 

^Your car has to sit for at least a half hr without running to get an accurate read off the dipstick.
The transmission filler tube is by the firewall. It's a little hard to spot, but the cap is held on with a 10mm bolt.
Being that you have an 03, you may not have a dipstick. If not, get one for an 04 350z, it'll work just fine.

 

Does it matter what kind of oil I use as long as it's synthetic since I don't know what the previous owner used?I' Am thinking of using Castrol Synthetic Oil.Also would about five bottles be enough?I really think I 'Am Gonna change it myself. Thanks Guys.

 

^Castrol Syntec is a good choice, so is edge.
Steer clear of Mobil1 Synthetics though.

As for the filter, stay away from fram.
Purolator PureOne is the way to go IMO.

 

take it to the Infiniti dealer... If they are reputable, your car will be in good hands. I have the exact same car and I trust the Infiniti dealer with all maintenance. They just rebuilt my tranny (110k miles) in Winston-Salem NC and I must say, my car is like new again.

 

^The dealer is almost always going to use a Nissan oil filter, which is made of fail.

 

^allow me to say that I am in "good standings" with my dealer and they use whatever I want with all applications... Sorry i didn't mention that before.

 

^Ah. Well that's different then!

 

I know, most will be cheap when it come down to it but, if anyone were dealing with such profesionals that are in Winstom-Salem, they could speak just as highly as I am. I should be getting payed for talking like this but, I am extemely pleased with there work...

 

The 0W-xx stuff from them is actually good, so is the EP versions.

But they are more expensive and not usually found at advanced/Autozone.

Syntec and Edge are cheap when on sale and are really good in the VQ

 

Also forgot, he asked about quantity.

OP, Wal*Mart carries a 5/qt jug that's perfect for our cars.

You'll also want to watch out at advanced, auto zone, etc... sometimes they have great sales on oil.

 

Sup guys Did the oil change and changed my filters myself..I feel allot better that I did it myself and thanks for all the help..Next the transmission drain heh.

 

^Props to you
DIY feels good, doesn't it?
