Nissan Maxima Transmission Filters

The Nissan Maxima made its debut on the world automobile stage in 1982 and is still successfully marketed nowadays. During its run, this Nissan was available as a station wagon, hardtop and sedan, while since 1988, when the carmaker introduced the third generation of the Maxima, it has been available exclusively as a sedan. The third generation, code-named the J30, featured bigger dimensions, compared to the previous model. Besides, it became the second Japanese vehicle (after the Mazda 929) to be classified as a mid-size one. The powertrain consisted of a 3.0 L gasoline V6 mated to a classic 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic gearbox.

The transmission of your Maxima consists of a number of moving parts and its main function is to transfer power from the engine to the vehicle’s driveshaft. It helps your car run smoothly at different speeds. Transmission parts are lubricated with transmission fluid, while an internal filter prevents debris and dirt from getting inside the system. That is why it is important to replace a transmission filter, in order to avoid serious damage to moving parts. If that is high time you replaced the filter, you are welcome to check out our catalog of Nissan Maxima transmission filters & components and pick the units you need to keep your Japanese automobile in top shape.
