370Z/G37 Automatic Transmission Service

[@ThomasJefferson-Det]

I usually do the shifting through the gears after adding the fluid, while the trans gets up to temperature, so the fluid is well dispersed before letting it drip down to the proper full level. Oh and the temp should be 104⁰F not 140⁰. Thanks for making the video!

[@angelofdeath032]

do you remember what size adaptor you got for the pump hose?

[@pcoppleman]

You can buy the adapter to fit that fit fill plug G37 & 370Z jatco 7 speed transmission. Plus, apart from running through the gears ,you need to run the car when you have filled it, until, "little or no oil runs out of the fill hole". You will notice the fill hole has a short pipe on the inside of the pan as a fluid level gauge hence filling from there. With the trans fluid circulating up to the radiator and back to the transmission, you need the car running otherwise it all runs back into the trans. Then you can fit a copper washer to fill plug and tighten. So you nearly have it. Otherwise you can overfill, that fluid heats up too much, and it can't cool it down at slow speeds on hills etc. You wouldn't notice at normal speeds but with correct fliud level it will change gears more crisply also. Pan bolt is 20nm

Thank you! Does this also apply to manual?

Love your engine bay clean af

[@jkmarshall3553]

Great video... thanks for taking the time to make it. Can you verify the torque specs for the filter bolts and pan bolts? I'm seeing 61 in-lbs for the pan bolts, but can't find anything for the filter bolts. Thanks again!

[@adrianmerkz5643]

You can’t clean the pan with diesel?

[@VQ_YERTY]

Did it drive better did u have any issue u didn’t have before with shifting

[@VQ.GODSEND7]

how is the transmission holding up? i wanna do this to my 2013 g37 but im afraid the transmission might act funky afterwards. infiniti told me they dont recommend but i wanted to make sure my transmission is fine before i tune my vehicle. please give me your input on that.

[@MDVLmedia]

Still shifting beautifully smooth!

[@hinoramei7733]

Infiniti BSing you based on 10+ year old service (dis)information, fluid changes for both the engine and transmission make the car run super healthy almost immediately.

[@PieroRuiz-p4j]

Hey man appreciate da vid u made it’s funny af . Straight to da buizness n very informative!! Do you remember where and what kind of adapter you got for the pump

[@MDVLmedia]

Hey, glad you like it! The pump is a generic one you can get at any local auto parts store, which comes with the hose. The adapter was just a random one I found at Advance Auto. I brought the tube for reference and just found one that appeared to fit.

[@XD-uh8ye]

Thanks for the vedio! You have an instagram? I want to ask about the torque that you put on the filter and pan bolts.

[@MDVLmedia]

You’re welcome! My Instagram is @medieval.media I used this forum for the TQ specs: forums.nicoclub.com/torque-specs-capacities-at-transmission-pan-t400481.html#

[@1of1.92]

Why didn’t you just fill it up through the transmission dip stick ?

[@MDVLmedia]

Let me know when you find it!

[@1of1.92]

@@MDVLmedia that’s how I did it lol I didn’t need none of those extra gadgets you used .

[@MDVLmedia]

@@1of1.92 You should make a video about the transmission dipstick and send it to Nissan. They’re not aware it exists. 😊

[@1of1.92]

@@MDVLmedia how do you check your transmission fluid level then? lol

[@MDVLmedia]

@@1of1.92 ​​⁠ You really don’t, aside from opening the fill plug. It’s a sealed transmission and Nissan states it is “maintenance free”.

[@invsbleninja2176]

How many quarts

[@MDVLmedia]

Z1 kit came with 6, so I did all all 6 and let the excess drain back out. I believe it ended up actually holding under 5.

[@alejandrovaldez2784]

Doing all that just to clean the filter instead of actually changing it out is crazy…

[@MDVLmedia]

Nothing wrong with it and I had to be in there anyways. Throwing away money to replace good parts might be crazy ;)

[@alejandrovaldez2784]

@@MDVLmediathat’s like saying your oil filter is still good while changing your oil after only 2.5k miles 🤦🏻‍♂️ dumb af

I hope your day gets better ❤

These cars are bullets, you definitely dont have one so you definitely dont know

Monkey Nissan could have just put a tranny dip stick but nah
