Nissan NS-2 CVT Fluid Product Code: CVTQT-EA
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.
Package sizes include:
-
Quart Bottle
-
2.5-Gallon Bottle
-
55-Gallon Drum
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. AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid is a cost-effective, high-performance
alternative to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) fluids.
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
AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid is durable. In normal and severe service, it effectively resists wear to the
transmission's vital parts, helping achieve long life.
Resists
Heat
In elevated heat, Synthetic CVT Fluid's 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
AMSOIL Synthetic CVT Fluid provides superior wet-clutch performance for outstanding anti-shudder durability and
reduced noise, vibration and harshness.
Field
Proven
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 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.
