I have a 2002 Maxima GLE(Automatic). I need to find out how many quarts of transmission fluid does the car take. The owner's manual does not state what the capacity is. I just want to change the fluid without taking the screen out.
Thanks in advance.

 

I bought last night 10, to be safe....... Mobil 1 at $4.99, or Amsoil $$$$ don't know.....

 

for a flush it about 10 +-.5 QT and for a dain and fill it about 4.5-5 QT.

 

When I did a drain and fill on my 2k2 auto tranny, almost exactly 4 qts came out. I measured it carefully because wanted to be sure and add the right amount. I then did it twice more over a week resulting in about 85% new fluid.
The service manager at my dealer looked up the tranny capacity in his manual and told me it was 9 qts.

 

If your just draining and filling the max will take 4 qts ,gfcrane is right
