Default 2013 CVT Cold Fluid Level/Cooler recommendations

I took my Juke on a trip from Los Alamos, NM to ABQ, NM. The temps were in the 90s. After driving for 40 minutes or so and after climbing a hill the car fell into what I have learned is a cripple mode that means the transmission is too hot. I fought with this all the way to ABQ and back.


I have ordered NS2 fluid and a trans filter. I plan to replace it when the supplies arrive.


The next day I checked the fluid cold. It was well over the hash marks, about to the "HOT" mark on stick and a brown color.


Can someone tell me what the level should look like cold?


I am also wondering about transmission coolers people here might have experience with? Good/bad idea? Best brand? Recommendations?


The car has 59K. I bought it at the end of March from a non-Nissan dealer.


Thank you.
