Now i plan to change every 40,000km, to be safe. I'd rather change CVT oil than change CVT gearbox

can't really remember, i saw bro kelvin top up already then start engine, then top up again and again several times in a space of several minutes each after checking the cvt dipstick. i did notice 2 bottle of cvt oil on the floor.

Nissan NS-2. Cheapest I could find is $75 a tin (4 litres). Nissan NS-2 CVT oil is one of the most expensive I think. Honda CVT oil is much cheaper. There are aftermarket brands which claim to be compliant with NS-2. It's also much cheaper, but I don't have the courage to try. I dont' want to save a few bucks, end up gota change CVT gearbox, really can  :crycry: :crycry:

I changed mine at Bro Kelvin workshop. You can try calling Thian Seng Motors at 62782407. They are located at Blk 119 Bt Merah Lane 1 #01-28. They were the one who quoted me $75 per tin.
