The Infiniti QX30 is a compact luxury crossover SUV that was produced from 2016 to 2019. It was available with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine or a 2.2-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine. Both engines were paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

The transmission fluid capacity for the Infiniti QX30 is 7.8 quarts. It is important to use the correct type of transmission fluid, as specified in your owner’s manual. Using the wrong type of transmission fluid can damage your transmission.

Infiniti Qx30 Transmission Fluid Capacity

The transmission fluid capacity for an Infiniti QX30 depends on the model year and the type of transmission it has. The Infiniti QX30 typically comes with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT). Here are the general guidelines:

Infiniti QX30 (7-speed Dual-Clutch Transmission)

  • 2017-2019 Models:
    • Drain and Refill: Approximately 4.2 quarts (4.0 liters)
    • Total Capacity: Approximately 7.4 quarts (7.0 liters)

For the most accurate information, always refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual or contact an Infiniti dealership. They can provide the exact specifications for your specific model and transmission type.

How to Check the Transmission Fluid Level

1. Park your QX30 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. It is usually located near the back of the engine, on the driver’s side.
4. Pull the dipstick out and wipe it clean with a rag.
5. Re-insert the dipstick into the transmission fluid tube.
6. Pull the dipstick out again and check the fluid level. The fluid level should be between the “Full” and “Add” marks on the dipstick.

How to Add Transmission Fluid

1. If the transmission fluid level is low, you will need to add fluid.
2. Purchase the correct type of transmission fluid, as specified in your owner’s manual.
3. Open the hood and locate the transmission fluid fill plug. It is usually located on the top of the transmission.
4. Remove the fill plug and insert a funnel into the fill hole.
5. Add transmission fluid until the fluid level reaches the “Full” mark on the dipstick.
6. Reinstall the fill plug.

When to Change the Transmission Fluid

The transmission fluid in your QX30 should be changed every 60,000 miles or 5 years, whichever comes first. However, you may need to change the fluid more often if you drive in severe conditions, such as stop-and-go traffic or off-roading.

Benefits of Changing the Transmission Fluid

Changing the transmission fluid in your QX30 can help to:

  • Improve the performance of your transmission.
  • Prevent transmission problems.
  • Extend the life of your transmission.

Conclusion

The transmission fluid in your Infiniti QX30 is an important part of your vehicle’s drivetrain. It helps to lubricate and cool the transmission, and it also helps to transfer power from the engine to the wheels. It is important to keep the transmission fluid at the correct level and to change it regularly to help keep your transmission running smoothly.
