I have a 97 maxima se 5-spd, Now it has 108k miles on it. I dont think that the previous owner ever changed the oil.
1) is this oil good for my car with such high milege?
2) How many bottles would i need?
3) I live in Brooklyn, NY. Do u think it will ever freeze up?
4) What is the best tool to force new oil into tranny?

Yes, it's good.

Check the FAQs here, on Maximadriver.com, or Steve Cutchen's (sp?) Maxima FAQ for instructions on how much you need.

I think it's around 5qt, but it could be much less. I don't remember. We prefer MT-90 over MTL.

If you're concerned about temperature I think MTL may be the better way to go. As for a transmission fluid change, RTFM.

I don't think it's that hard, you just need a long funnel...
