if you do a flush you will not need any parts. if you do a drain and refill, then you have the choice of dropping the pan to clean the magnets. in that case it is a wise idea to change the pan gasket. i have done a few drain and refills (dropping pan every other time) and after the first, the fluid is rather clean and hardly any shavings on the magnets. i use mobil 1 atf but at some point will have a flush done on the transmission through the dealer who will charge me 70 if i bring my own fluid instead of using the nissan stuff.
