Dipstick Transmission | CVT 31086-JA00A | Fluid ATF Level Indicator Dip Gauge | Compatible with 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 Altima 4 CYL 2.5 | 2015-2020 Rogue 2.5L | Sentra 1.6L Turbo

The quick answer is this tool is spot on with the indentations showing “low” and “high”. But a bit of explanation… if you search for gears magazine fluid level quick check gauge you’ll get an even better explanation. If you were to make your own dipstick for a 2013-2018 Altima, you would start with a dipstick measuring 23 1/8 inches from where the tool you use stops on the top of the cvt fill pipe tube in the engine bay. Then you measure up from the end of the dipstick and make 2 marks. One mark is at 23MM and the second is at 30mm. Between those two points is your “safe” range. That said, DO NOT overfill. This isn’t the 70’s anymore. CVT’s are different. “Just a little bit more” is a huge no-no with a CVT transmission. Do your research if you don’t believe me. I see people eyeballing what they take out and refilling to what they think is an equivalent amount. Don’t do that. There are many of these dipsticks being sold. All I can tell you is the one I happened to receive is spot on. But I’d check them. I thought I misplaced a previous one I had (found it after I ordered this one) and the high and low marks were not correct on the older one. Ok, I adjusted after taking a precise measurement, but I’ll toss that old one and now use this one. Just don’t take it on faith, measure it up when you get it. Tape up a couple sheets of paper and measure 23 1/8, use your cheap caliper from harbor freight and make a mark on your paper 23 and 30mm up from the 23/18 mark then compare the dipstick you ordered to the marks you made on the paper. Again, it’s just a bit of time and your peace of mind is worth it. Ok, that’s the simple part, but I’ll stress the most important part of this is taking the measurement when your cvt fluid temp is in the 170-180 degree F range. Again, if you don’t believe me, look up the technical service bulletin from Nissan on “cvt fluid level” . You can’t get much clearer than what they wrote. this is where most diy’ers have an issue. They “guess” at the temp and the reading will be wrong. These cvt’s are unforgiving. Fluid absolutely needs to be changed. But there is a process to it that MUST be followed. It’s a super simple fluid change to do, just don’t spit-ball it. Yes, the tool needed to get the temp correct is a pain, but given the price of cars today, my suggestion is to make the investment. Call and find out what the dealer charges for this and you might be convinced.Sent from my iPad

It fits on 2013 Nissan Altima 2.5. Now I can see what's the oil level in the Transmission.

Great fitiment

It doesn't fit 2020 nissan versa. The description said it would. Idk about other nissans

I have two 2013 Altimas, one a four cylinder, one a six cylinder. This dipstick is too short for the V6 transmission, and the description says it's only for the four cylinder. On that one, the lower level notch on the stick is exactly perfect to where the oil stops draining out of the transmission check plug. Mine did have the hatch marks, but the notches are good enough. I'm happy. Now I need to find a V6 version.

Bought this for a 2019 Nissan Rogue and it is spot on. It takes the guess work out if you don't have a scan tool and want to do the overflow drain process.

This dipstick was listed as a fit for my 2016 Nissan Rogue but it was much to long.
