Changing the CVT Transmission Fluid

Hi everyone. What a pain this looks like. We want to change the transmission fluid in our 2013 due to the high mileage. Questions.

1. How much fluid do we need to have on hand? I can't find any info on this car!

2. I looked at the dipstick. There is no real dipstick. Just a short metal wand with no measuring marks on it. How do I know how much is enough without a dipstick?

3. We purchased NS2 by accident but cannot find NS3 which is what this vehicle requires. What is the difference?? Do we need to get this fluid from Nissan?

thanks for any info you have on this.

Thanks!!
You can pick up a dip stick off older model Altima at a junk yard, 2012 and earlier. They are exactly alike. It won’t show but maybe 1/2 inch on it so it’s hard to tell if it’s low or not. But you can at least look at the color
