mounting side with drive plate removed.
3. Drain engine oil. Refer to LU-9, "
Changing Engine Oil" .
4. Drain engine coolant by removing water drain plug from inside of
engine.
5. Remove cylinder head. Refer to EM-65, "
CYLINDER HEAD" .
6. Remove knock sensor.
CAUTION:
Carefully handle knock sensor avoiding shocks.
7. Remove crankshaft position sensor (POS).
CAUTION:

Avoid impacts such as a dropping.

bolts.
NOTE:
Use TORX socket (size E20).
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage or scratch drive plate.

A widely use engine stand can be used.
CAUTION:
Use engine stand that has a load capacity [approximately
220 kg (441 lb) or more] large enough for supporting the
engine weight.
NOTE:
This example is engine stand for holding at transaxle mount-
ing side with drive plate removed.
5. Drain engine oil. Refer to LU-21, "
Changing Engine Oil" .
6. Drain engine coolant by removing water drain plugs from cylin-
der block both sides at “A” and “D” and cylinder block front side
at “B” as shown in the figure.
NOTE:
Water drain plug at the right bank side for VQ35DE is also used
as a connector of water pipe for oil cooler. Refer to LU-23, "
OIL
COOLER (VQ35DE)" .
7. Remove drive plate. Fix crankshaft pulley with pulley holder [SST: KV10109300], and remove mounting
bolts.

Loosen mounting bolts in diagonal order.
CAUTION:

Do not disassemble drive plate.

Do not place drive plate with signal plate facing down.

When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or
scratch it.

Handle signal plate in a manner that prevents it from
becoming magnetized.
8. Remove cylinder head. Refer to EM-210, "
CYLINDER HEAD" .
9. Remove knock sensor.
CAUTION:
Carefully handle sensor avoiding shocks.

WARNING:
Be sure to read “General Precautions” before working on the fuel system. Refer to FL-3, "
General Pre-
cautions" .

Drain fuel from fuel tank if necessary. Refer to FL-4, "REMOVAL" .
CAUTION:
For the safety work and to maintain fuel tank gravity at center, drain fuel to the level where fuel
tank weight at left and right becomes equal.

Perform work on level place.
1. Perform steps 2 to 7 of “REMOVAL” in “FUEL LEVEL SENSOR UNIT, FUEL FILTER AND FUEL PUMP
ASSEMBLY”. Refer to FL-4, "
REMOVAL" .
2. Remove center muffler. Refer to EX-2, "
EXHAUST SYSTEM" .
3. Remove center muffler mounting rubber. Refer to EX-2, "

PRECAUTIONS

Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery DisconnectBAS00072
NOTE:

This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM).

Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK″ position.

Always use CONSULT-II to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing
work. If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery power is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables.
NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-II.
General PrecautionsBAS00073

Do not operate the engine for an extended period of time without
proper exhaust ventilation.
Keep the work area well ventilated and free of any flammable
materials. Special care should be taken when handling any flam-
mable or poisonous materials, such as gasoline, refrigerant gas,
etc. When working in a pit or other enclosed area, be sure to
properly ventilate the area before working with hazardous mate-
rials.
Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.

Before jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other tire
blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. After
jacking up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with safety
stands at the points designated for proper lifting before working
on the vehicle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.

When removing a heavy component such as the engine or tran-
saxle/transmission, be careful not to lose your balance and drop
them. Also, do not allow them to strike adjacent parts, especially
the brake tubes and master cylinder.

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

Detectable Lines and Non-Detectable Lines
In some wiring diagrams, two kinds of lines, representing wires, with different weight are used.

A line with regular weight (wider line) represents a “detectable
line for DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code)”. A “detectable line for
DTC” is a circuit in which ECM can detect its malfunctions with
the on board diagnostic system.

A line with less weight (thinner line) represents a “non-detect-
able line for DTC”. A “non-detectable line for DTC” is a circuit in
which ECM cannot detect its malfunctions with the on board
diagnostic system.
