Hi, getting ready to change the ATF and filter in my 2014 X 2WD has only 40k on it. Looking at Valvoline Maxlife ATF its rated for Nissan J or S. Also rear diff C200 going to use (unless I hear otherwise) Mobil 1 75-140w GL-5 ? Not too worried about the diff changed it when I put on the new cover guard couple yrs ago. Anyone know how much ATF for a drain & refill?

First Fill-Up (of many)
Yes, Valvoline max life for the automatic transmission. Should be between 4 - 4 1/2 quarts for a drain and fill.

For the C200 rear diff, go with 75W-90 grear oil. 75w-140 is for the M226.

Atf: make sure you put exact amount you took out back in.

What everybody else said. For the amount, I bought a 97¢ clear pitcher at Walmart and used a measuring cup (to pour water in) and sharpie to mark quart and half quart lines all the way up the side.

The Haynes manual I got states 75w-140 should be used for all 4wd options. That a no go?

Only for the M226 rear. Easiest way to tell if you’re unfamiliar with the shape is the M226 has 12 bolts and the C200 has 8. X and S trims in automatic were C200, and manual and all P4X have M226.
