drain and refill will take you about 4 quarts. a liter is 0.89 of a quart .... in other words a quart is almost 1/10th short ( a little less) of a liter. oil you could use any oil that compatible with the rating of the transmission.

How do I check the transmissionfluid in my 2013 nissan versa

the modern car 101. guess automatic ,none told no vin told.
the users manual (glove box) skips this step due to zillions of folks do it wrong and wrecking the transmission doing it dead wrong.
on most cars the dips stick is GONE. (saving itself from damage)
so is now only in the service manual
so buy it.
3 answers, not me doing all 3 ever.
the CVT has the shorter ATF life span and is tricky,

What kind or brand of automatic transmission fluid i should use in 2002 nissan sentra

Just standard ATF, Not type F. Actually I have heard you can use any Tranny fluid in Non Ford models but can only use Type F fluid in Ford model vehicles. I used to use type F in my MOPAR with Performance engine and Tranny with no problems. But if you are worried then use ATF or ATF+4 fluid and you should be fine.

Where do i put my clutch fluid at?

On your model you most-likely have a clutch cable, therefore no clutch fluid. Follow along the drivers-side under the hood, a lever connected to a cable should be a-top the transmission. This should be periodically sprayed with chain and cable lube. Mine is a 1994 sentra GA16DE 1.6 and it still uses a cable. You should periodically change your gear oil aswell. It is much like an automatic transmission's ATF (trans fluid). On most models a fill hole and a drain hole (both with plugs) can be accessed below your transmission. When completely full, the fluid will be even with or just below the point of which the fill plug is slightly draining from being completely full. Most shops will check this free of charge.
