I have a 2008 G35 at almost 60,000 miles and am ready to do a tranny fluid flush. Anyone on here from Pittsburgh know of a good place to have this done. Don't want to get raked over the coals on price or get a assed job.

 

How much does the dealership there charge? I'm in GA, and I have an 08 with 115k miles. I have done the transmission fluid change at 50k and again at 100k at the dealership for $59.00 each time. I thought that it was a reasonable price at the dealership when I had mine done.

 

Can't say how much it is. But, it should vary between 60-300 dollars. If they do a drain refill it's cheap. If they do a flush it's a lot more about 12 QTS. The fluid is what usually ends up costing the most at 10 bucks a at min.

Unfortunately, the terms "fluid change" and "flush" are used loosely and often interchangeably, even when they clearly shouldn't. One involves just draining the pan and replacing what was drained, the other potentially involves opening the hydraulic lines and replaces the entirety of the fluid in the tranny.

 

Could you tell me what dealership you get your car serviced? I'm past due for a transmission fluid change.

 

Infiniti of Augusta. $59 for transmission drain and fill. I believe they charge $189 for flush. Some people have said nissan advises against the flush as it may cause transmission problems.

 

yeah, i thought i read a transmission fluid flush wasn't a good idea, rather just change the fluid regularly (60k miles)? also, only use Nissan fluids in the transmission.
