Attack of the unibody snatchers! Styling and handling refined or bland? You decide.

I need to change my transmission fluid and the only one i have access to is Mobil ATF 220.

Can i use this for my Pathfinder?

This is what is specified in the manual...

Nissan Matic “D” (Continental U.S. and Alaska) or Canada
NISSAN Automatic Transmission Fluid.

Nissan Type "D" ATF is the original Dexron formula and has a similar viscosity as Dexron II. Dexron III has a thicker viscosity and has been found by Nissan to cause valve sticking in some valve bodies of some of their transmissions that spec Type "D." Dexron II D was an update of Dexron II to correct a corrosion issue with some GM tranny circuitboards and later upgraded to Dexron II E. While I can't find anything specific that says Mobil ATF 220 is compatible with Nissan Type "D," it is compatible with Dexron II D. I think it should by just fine in a Nissan Type "D" spec transmission.
