if you drain from the transmission pan plug and from the returning hose by the radiator, you will probably need 6-7 quarts. you will fill through the dipstick by the passenger side firewall.

thanks for the reply, did you use matic-s?? or did you use an aftermarket?? I dont usually like to use aftermarket transmission fluid, but i am up for ideas.

i used the stock OEM fluid. i think it's J or S - whatever superceed the other. The only fluid i used aftermarket is for the differential, which i did for the front and rear over last weekend. For that i used Redline 75W 90 GL5 fluid. I've used Redline product on my Audi TT for years and I don't have any issue so i'm using it again on the Infiniti. i used the Matic D fluid for the transfer case.

this is more like a drain and fill type of thing so it's not really a flush. if you want to flush your transmission, you need to go to the dealer.
