What trans/diff oil is best?

[big_c]

Hi all, just picked up an 08 rogue SL AWD with 104k. Decided to change fluids on it, as I am unsure if they have been done before.

Diff was a pieces of cake, looked about the same as the DIY write up...metal particles on magnetic plug, cloudy yellow, etc.

Transfer case was a bit more difficult, but I was glad I did it. Looked like cloudy brown color, with fine metallic powder noticeable in the bottom. Can't believe nissan recommends such long intervals! I will be doing it every 30k now.

I used durablend 80w-90 in both. Is this an acceptable fluid for both?

Welcome!

Yes the Durablend 80w-90 is acceptable. That is what ImStricken used in his write up and I used the same thing when I did mine.

80-90 is fine
