I'm not 100% sure on a 08 but for 2010 an Infiniti master tech I spoke to said that Infiniti recommends never changing it unless there is a problem. In that case they inspect the transmission and unless there are significant shavings in the fluid, it's just a drain and fill. Anyone here have an 08?
The 2010 and up have a full synthetic fluid from my understanding.

Thanks... My mechanics think the same way..

But they never upgraded Nissan's transmissions up to 750 hp therefore asked me to specify from the seller of this upgrade ... but unfortunately for me it's very difficult to get something from GTM... they ignore my questions or don't respond for weeks

Subaru mechanics use for their upgraded transmission not OEM oil but more high-temperature oil because thansmission works at higher loadings...

Logically it must be the same on Nissans...

I hope there is someone who has the same transmission... I'm the first on the Ex-USSR terrotory who does such deep upgrade to the Infiniti so I have nobody in Ukraine to help me...

Thank you very much for the help

I found a guy in Russia with 350Z with the same GTM transmission... His answer is:
ONLY NISSAN MATIC J

He uses his AT for 2 years without any problems

So I have the answer on my question.
