Replaced my daughter's ATF in her 2000 G20 with Dexron III. Owner's manual calls for Nissanmatic D ATF. Are the 2 compatible?

I am thinking No.I am only 90% sure though.

I know you can replenish a Nissanmatic D fill with some dexron III and I am sure they are not all <that> different but I do believe they spec out different and are not interchangeble.

If anything the differences are minor compared to Toyota T4.

At the worst case you would need some Lubeguard Black additive to simulate the exact slip/lockup characteristics of Nissan D.

Try the Dex lll alone first.

In 2002 [5 speed AT] uses a very special fluid that so far we don't know how to copy just like Toyota T4.
