I wish they had a transmission fluid compatible with the Nissan CVT.
I see they don't have an oil filter for the 2013-2014 engines yet either. :dunno:
I guess I will just use a Nissan filter and OE oil for now. I need to place an order soon, the new car has 1200 miles on it already.

Scotty, has the engines changed from 2011-12? If not more than likely that oil filter will fit. AMSOIL waits a while before they post for newer models. Not sure why. Like the Acadia, the 2013 model wasn't out right away.

CVT transmissions are still new and there are not very many on the road so a fluid for it might not make it from AMSOIL. Just like the AutoTrakII, look how long it has been around and there isn't a replacement for it. All we can do is wait and see.

I know everyone has their on methods but I would dump that factory fill now. Even if you just go to Valvoline conventional and run it for another 1500 miles or so. Again that is just what I would do. Seems the one oil forum I'm on early change out is what the majority accomplish on a new vehicle.

Yes, the engines have changed. Still the same displacement though, so I'm not sure exactly how much has changed. I'll have to check the filter number at the dealer, and try to cross reference it.

I find that using the Wix website to find cross referencing filters is easy since they give all the specs.
