How do I flush the transmission? Which line so I disconnect? 2009 Nissan Altima 2.5. I can't move the car right now because it was flooded. I don't want to move it until I flush all the funk from the transmission. I went and got the cvt fluid already and cleaned the pan. So much gunk. I just hope the transmission isn't going to tear up once I turn the car on

Lol no one knows huh. This Altima forum and Nissan club are dead. I'll sell this car and move on to something more popular

It's too bad about you having to sell your car to get in with the popular kids. Just kidding (a little). It's been a week and you got nothing but crickets. I'm sorry you're feeling frustrated, but I get it. CVT's aren't just flushed when people feel ooky about their fluid condition. Also, they're still relatively new to the auto industry. Therefore, less people are out and about with experience and knowledge to share on the subject.

You've been here a while. How come you still don't use our best resource ever, the free FSM? :poke: Here's a link straight to the transmission chapter, look at page 241 (then read the rest of the FSM):
