Description:
The transmission fill plug can wear over time. Sometimes they end up cross-threaded; other times the fittings end up rounded off. In some cases, they are simply lost, never to be seen ever again. This genuine, original equipment (OEM) replacement* fill plug fits late 4 and 5 speed non-turbo (71B, 71C) manual transmissions. We recommend inspecting both transmission plugs every time you change your trans oil. Sold individually.
*Note:
Nissan has discontinued the original design fill plug and replaced it with this updated version. The most significant difference lies in the tool used for installation and removal. The original design had an external square head and required an open end wrench, while the updated design has an internal square and will require a 1/2" square socket (a 1/2" drive ratchet works perfectly). Note that the updated plug uses the same drive as the drain plug.
Supercession Note:
At this time, Nissan has not issued an official notice regarding the change to this updated plug. We were given the details regarding the replacement from Nissan directly, and were also informed that an official supercession or service file may be issued at a later time. We plan to update this page later once it is confirmed either way. Please contact us with any questions.
Application Note:
Not for 280ZX Turbo, 300ZX Turbo, or any Z-Car currently equipped with any turbo model transmission. Includes 90A (82-86 Borg-Warner) or 30A (87-89) transmissions.
