NOTE:
Maintenance item with“”should be performed more frequently according to“Maintenance Under Severe Driving Condi-
tions”.
(1) If valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
(2) Oil filter element assembly (part No. 15208 AD200) and O-ring seal (part No. 15226 AD200) are replacement parts.
(3) Use Nissan genuine engine coolant or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminium corrosion within the
engine cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant. After first replacement, replace every 40,000 km (24,
000 miles) or 24 months.
(4) If engine power decreases, black exhaust smoke is emitted or engine noise increases, check injection nozzles and, if
necessary, replace injection nozzle assembly.
(5) Never use CG-4 oil.
