The Infiniti G35 is a popular luxury sports sedan that was produced from 2003 to 2008.

The G35 was also available with a 6-speed manual transmission, but this was only offered on the coupe model.

The Infiniti G35’s automatic transmission has a fluid capacity of 9.8 quarts. This includes the fluid in the transmission pan, as well as the fluid in the torque converter. It is important to use the correct type of transmission fluid for your G35. The manufacturer recommends using Genuine Nissan Matic Fluid D or equivalent.

The Infiniti G35’s manual transmission has a fluid capacity of 2.6 quarts. This includes the fluid in the transmission case, as well as the fluid in the differential. It is important to use the correct type of transmission fluid for your G35. The manufacturer recommends using Genuine Nissan Manual Transmission Fluid or equivalent.

Checking the Transmission Fluid Level

The transmission fluid level should be checked regularly, and it is important to do this before driving the car. To check the transmission fluid level, follow these steps:

  1. Park the car on a level surface.
  2. Turn off the engine and allow it to cool down.
  3. Open the hood and locate the transmission fluid dipstick. The dipstick is usually located near the back of the engine, on the driver’s side.
  4. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it clean with a rag.
  5. Reinsert the dipstick into the transmission fluid tube.
  6. Pull out the dipstick again and check the fluid level. The fluid level should be between the “Full” and “Add” marks on the dipstick.
  7. If the fluid level is low, add transmission fluid until the level reaches the “Full” mark.

Changing the Transmission Fluid

The transmission fluid should be changed every 30,000 miles or 24 months, whichever comes first. To change the transmission fluid, follow these steps:

  1. Park the car on a level surface.
  2. Turn off the engine and allow it to cool down.
  3. Open the hood and locate the transmission fluid drain plug. The drain plug is usually located on the bottom of the transmission pan.
  4. Place a drain pan under the drain plug.
  5. Loosen the drain plug and allow the transmission fluid to drain out.
  6. Once all of the transmission fluid has drained out, tighten the drain plug.
  7. Remove the transmission fluid pan.
  8. Clean the transmission fluid pan and replace the filter.
  9. Reinstall the transmission fluid pan.
  10. Add new transmission fluid until the level reaches the “Full” mark on the dipstick.
