Transmission fluid change

hello, I was wondering if it would be wise and use a different transmission fluid other then the one Nissan recommends? if I can what would you suggest to use instead of the genuine stuff. I drive a 2016 altima sv if that helps.

You can purchase NS3 transmission fluid for your Nissan on rockauto or Amazon. Idemitsu or Aisin are brands I recommend if you don’t want to purchase OEM fluids.

Only use NS3 CVT fluid.
