The CVT in your car requires a unique transmission fluid with specialized frictional characteristics designed to ensure the belt
or chain remains in contact with the pulleys without slipping. AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid provides outstanding metal-to-metal frictional properties and excellent protection and performance for CVTs throughout vehicle manufacturer-recommended drain intervals.
This product is very reasonably priced considering it's not an OEM fluid, particularly if you purchase it online or from your local dealer. It keeps your transmission from stuttering, slipping, and whining.
AMSOIL CVT Fluid is a cost-effective, high-performance alternative to vehicle-make specific brand (OEM) cvt fluids such as Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Subaru and utilizes the latest additive technology to provide superior protection in all driving conditions. AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid is field proven to outperform OEM CVT Fluids.
Transmission fluid keeps the belt or chain in contact with the pulleys. That’s why CVT’s need specialized fluids instead of the traditional automatic and manual transmission fluids. CVT fluids are
designed with proper frictional properties to prevent the belt from slipping. If you’re using the wrong fluid, performance decreases can be noticed and potentially damage the transmission.
Wear protection also plays an important role in the longevity and performance of the CVT. To combat wear and extend transmission life, we developed AMSOIL SYNTHICAL CVT FLUID. We field tested this fluid against the CVT fluid of a well-known vehicle manufacturer over a 100,000 mile (160,000 km) test. The welded steel CVT belts lubricated with the AMSOIL synthetic CVT fluid showed minimal wear as shown in the image below.

Product Description
Continuously variable transmissions (CVTs) create unlimited gear ratios using a belt or chain running between two variable diameter pulleys. CVTs require a unique transmission fluid with specialized frictional characteristics designed to ensure the belt or chain remains in contact with the pulleys without slipping.
AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid provides outstanding metal-to-metal frictional properties and excellent protection and performance for CVTs throughout vehicle manufacturer-recommended drain intervals. It is Warranty Secure and will not void your vehicle's warranty.
Field Proven to outperform OEM CVT Fluids
Field testing was conducted to compare AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid and Nissan NS-2 CVT Fluid. Four vehicles (two equipped with AMSOIL CVT Fluid and two with
Nissan NS-2 CVT Fluid) were driven 100,000 miles / 160,000 kms before the transmissions were torn down and inspected.
As indicated by the lack of wear in the belt and pulley photos below, AMSOIL CVT Fluid provided outstanding protection throughout the duration of the field trial, proving it is a high-quality replacement for Nissan NS-2 CVT Fluid.
Lab Tested
AMSOIL lab testing also reveals AMSOIL CVT Fluid met, and in some cases surpassed, the protection and performance of Nissan NS-2 CVT Fluid:
• In FZG wear testing (ASTM D5182), Nissan NS-2 achieved a 7 stage pass, while AMSOIL CVT Fluid significantly surpassed it with an 11 stage pass.
• In the JASO LVFA Anti-Shudder Durability Test, AMSOIL CVT Fluid lasted six times longer, translating into
improved anti-shudder durability and reduced noise, vibration and harshness.
What Can AMSOIL CVT Fluid Do to Protect Your Transmission?
Excellent Frictional Properties
The metal-to-metal frictional properties between the CVT's belt/chain interface and the pulleys are important, relying on the CVT fluid to prevent slipping. AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid provides exceptional metal-to-metal frictional properties to help prevent belt and chain slipping and help extend transmission life.
Outstanding Wear Protection
Durable. In normal and severe service, effectively resists wear to the transmission's vital parts, helping achieve long life.
Resists Heat
In elevated heat, thermally stable formulation guards against the harmful effects of thermal breakdown. It resists the formation of varnish that can threaten transmission performance and life.
Superior Wet-Clutch
Performance
Provides superior wet-clutch performance for outstanding anti-shudder durability and reduced noise, vibration and harshness.
Service Life
Fluid should be changed according to your vehicle manufacturer's recommendations.

So far the transmission behaves perfect
About two years ago I changed the CVT fluid over to Amsoil CVT (against the recommendation of Nissan) The Nissan NS-3 fluid cost over $ 30 a litre and is not even synthetic (as far as I know) When your fluid arrives I will do another fluid change and also change the little oil filter. So far the transmission behaves perfect and as new. I have 115,000 kms on it.
