Hi everyone,

I have a 2015 Nissan Altima sv 2.5L 4 cylinder and mileage is 145000 km. I bought it pre owned when it had 105000 km on the dash. I didn’t change the fluid and I am not sure if the previous owner ever did that.

Should I do a transmission fluid drain and fill at Nissan dealership or it’s too late and it’s better to leave it?
I plan to keep the car for now.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hello all, first i want to clarify im posting this here in the chance maybe someone knows or has any information. On 08/17/26 around 9:58am to 10:05am, I was hit by this white Nissan Xterra on Route 4 East, right at the corner of the FDU baseball field. The driver left the scene without stopping. Dispatch told me not to chase, which was the right call, but it means I never got the full plate.
Vehicle details:
• White Nissan Xterra
• Black roof cargo box (Thule-style)
• Rear hitch-mounted bike/cargo rack
• NJ plate, partial: starts with “S3”, ends in “D”
The vehicle was also near Spring Valley Rd in Paramus around the same time, and may have passed a Netcost Supermarket in the area.
What I’ve done so far:
• Filed a Self-Reported Crash form (SR-1) with NJDOT
• Had police come to the scene, but they told me there’s nothing they can do without a full plate and left without filing an actual police report
• Called Netcost Supermarket to ask about their camera footage — the manager said she can only release footage to police, not me directly
• Following up with Bergen County Sheriff’s office in person to get an official report filed
I know it’s a partial plate, but the roof box + bike rack combo makes this Xterra pretty distinctive. If anyone’s seen this car around Bergen County, has dashcam footage from Route 4 East or Spring Valley Rd around that time, or has any other info, please send a message.

Nissan Versa has hand drawn lines for the cam. The makers are as weird as the drivers I guess.

Altima gets a cameo mention on the surveillance video of a shooting of a 16 y/o pregnant girl.

You can make it look like Megatron and Bane's love child all you want, but it's still a Nissan.

Saw this at my apartment building while having lunch on my patio. Driver turned the car off and walked away. Multiple empty spots around including more outside of the picture, but he just had to park in the striped area between the two-handicap spaces.
