searched some more on this and only filter I can find says it is internal and disassembly of the tranny would be required...so...Im going to just go with a drain and fill for now.volvite wrote:Possible that the filter is internal which would require the transmission to be disassembled.

For the pathfinder I'm unsure as I have not done much research on it, but it's possible to be internal. Have you tried calling the dealer?
Sounds good to me. That's how my tranny was on my 04 Mazda 6. The filter required transmission disassembly so all I did was a drain and fill.dawgn86 wrote:searched some more on this and only filter I can find says it is internal and disassembly of the tranny would be required...so...Im going to just go with a drain and fill for now.volvite wrote:Possible that the filter is internal which would require the transmission to be disassembled.
