Gotta be careful with Nissan CVTs, I'd highly recommend checking the forums for people providing their experience using Valvoline in their CVT and if it had any negative affects. After doing some searching when supporting someone with a Nissan CVT, every resource pointed to only using OEM CVT fluid for Nissan transmissions.
I wouldn't put this in ANY cvt, ESPECIALLY not in a Nissan!
This will work well but its red. So as long as the car has no warranty its fine.
If there is any warranty on it, even extended, then better to use the Valvoline CVT fluid. Its closer to the OE color so will not draw attention.

But looks dead.
Yeah, I've read some of those comments. My Altima has 78K miles in it, well outside warranty. I've Already done one exchange (approx 1/3rd of the total fluid) with OEM fluid and 55K miles, and another exchange using this Valvoline fluid at 70K miles (again replacing 1/3rd of the total fluid). So far I don't see any problems besides the color being red instead of green OEM color.
I expect to do a fluid change every 15K miles, so in another 2 or 3 exchanges all OEM fluid will be nearly gone and replaced with Valvoline.
If your car is under warranty, I'd agree to go with OEM or idemitsu (oem manufacturer) CVT fluid.
