    I went to the owner's manual to look this up, and...

    4-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID

    When checking or replacement is required, we recommend your NISSAN dealer for servicing.
    Wow. SERIOUSLY?

    Toyota's are like this as well. Many new Japanese automatic transmissions are completely sealed and apparently don't consume fluid. That's if you trust the auto manufacturers...personally, I think it's another reason to go with the stick shift.

    In our culture obsessed with absurd excess, the Nissan Micra is my counterculture car of choice.

    It almost seems as though they're calling the dealer the dipstick.

    Found what looks like the service instructions for a 2013 Versa with the 4-speed auto (not CVT):

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bze...BoY19QY1U/edit

    It even requires a special fitting to fill/check the fluid.
