Hi all, I'm new to the group and I have a question. I just aquired a 1995 Altima and I want to flush the trans. (160k) What fluid do I use? There is no marking on the dipstick and I dont want to put the wrong fluid in. Thanks for your help.Tom

nissanmatic D is factory fill, but i'd just use dexIII. if you wanna do this right, buy a case of dexIII. do a drain and fill (4qt), run engine for exactly 2 minutes in park, then do another drain and fill (4qt), run the engine for exactly 2 minutes in park, then drop the pan so you can replace the strainer and clean the magnets real good.
