2019 Nissan Altima
2019 Altima CVT fluid is Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-3. The capacity cells are dashes, and the manual sends the work to a dealer.
Difficulty, time, and cost are estimates when this guide gives them. Torque is a cited figure, or it is left off.

The manual says Nissan recommends Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-3 or equivalent only in Nissan CVTs, and not to mix it with other fluids.
The capacity row for CVT fluid is a dash in metric, US, and imperial measure.
The do-it-yourself page says when checking or replacement is required, it is recommended that you visit a Nissan dealer.
Differential gear oil is a different row. The table names Genuine NISSAN Differential Oil Hypoid Super GL-5 80W-90 or equivalent and does not print a quantity. That row is not a CVT fill.
Outbound links only. BaySheet does not sell parts. Confirm fitment on the retailer page. Amazon links are searches for the part name plus this vehicle. They are not a part number.
