I guess I'll take a better look at the pan, I didn't see a plug, but I've been wrong on occasion before. Thanks for all the replies. I'll probably stick with the NS-2, if the ENOS is red.
No problem. You definitely can't go wrong if you do frequent changes and stick with Nissan's fluid. The drain plug is kind of funny looking, and I believe it's right in the bottom of the pan (pointing down - but I could be wrong since it was a few months ago when we did the change). You will need a copper gasket for it, so be sure to grab one (or two) from your dealer before the change.
