I purchased a used 05 Nissan Maxima from a dealer a few years ago. The car now has 80K on it and I noticed the transmission fluid is looking dirty and should be changed. The information on the dipstick and owners manual says to use Nissan Matic -K fluid only. Other brands of fluid will harm the transmission. The Maxima was a lease vehicle and I found the maintenance service record booklet stuffed in the owners manual. All of the service work was done at Jiffy Lube, Sears and Firestone. I found it interesting that at 36K miles Jiffy Lube replaced the Nissan transmission fluid with Valvoline transmission fluid. My question is should I go back to Nissan Matic -K fluid or continue to use aftermarket products. Overall the transmission appears to shift ok. Recently the only thing I have noticed when the transmission is cold 1-2 and 2-3 are jerky. I did not notice any shifting problems the first few years. The fluid has about 44K miles on it and is dirty.
