Welcome to the Trick Shift Garage! In this video, we go step-by-step to show how to change the transmission fluid and filter on our 2007 Nissan Altima with a 2.5 liter engine. This Nissan CVT transmission is known as JF011E or RE0F10A. There are TWO different types of pans for these CVTs. So double-check and count the number of bolts your pan has to order the correct gasket! This video shows how to drain the fluid (including some models that have a drain plug while others may not) and replace the mesh filter located inside the transmission pan. If yours doesn't have a drain plug, you will have to drop the pan and allow all the fluid to drain (have to drop the pan anyway so not a huge deal) other than that, the process is the same between these variations. Don't forget to verify which gasket you need because there are 2 different types!

This process can be applied for the following vehicles:
2007 - 2012 Nissan Altima w/ 2.5 L
2008 - 2016 Nissan Rogue w/ 2.5 L
2014 - 2015 Nissan Rogue Select w/ 2.5 L
2011 - 2016 Nissan Juke w/ 1.6 L
2013 - 2016 Nissan NV200 w/ 2.0 L
