I did what Matt did on my wife's 2012 Altima Coupe 3.5L. I forget the specifics, but if I remember correctly, it would only drain about half the fluid (no way am I running the engine while draining the ATF). I drained the fluid, measured it, & replaced it with an equal amount of Nissan ATF. Then the following weekend I did the same again, which resulted in replacing most of the fluid. You have to use their ATF or you void the warrantee. I bought mine on Amazon. The dealership (& maybe independents) can analyze the fluid to determine how much service is left in it, but the dealership only changes half of the fluid, as I understand it. I won't take my wife's car to the local stealership. They wanted $100 just to check the tire pressure monitors when we had trouble with one of them.
