*1: For further details, see “SAE Viscosity Number”.
*2: Never use API CG-4.
*3: Use Genuine Nissan Anti-freeze Coolant (L250) or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminum corrosion w ithin the
engine cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant.
Note that any repairs for the incidents within the engine cooling system while using non-genuine engine coolant may not be
covered by the warranty even if such incidents occurred during the warranty period.
*4: Contact a Nissan dealership for more information regarding suitable fluids, including recommended brand(s) of DEXRON

skin contact with used engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand
cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Warm up engine, put vehicle horizontally and check for engine oil leakage from engine components.
2. Stop engine and wait for 10 minutes.
3. Loosen oil filter cap and then remove drain plug.
4. Drain engine oil.
5. Install drain plug with new washer. Refer to EM-147, "

5. Remove O-ring from oil filter body.

Push O-ring in one direction, lift the slack part using fingers,
and remove O-ring from oil filter body.
CAUTION:
Do not use a screwdrivers etc. as they may cause dam-
age to oil filter body.
INSTALLATION
1. Completely remove all foreign objects adhering to the inside of oil filter body or O-ring mounting area
(body side and bracket side).
2. Install oil filter and O-ring to oil filter body.

Push oil filter into filter body completely.
3. Install oil filter body to oil filter bracket.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
1. After warming up engine, check there is no leaks of engine oil.
2. Stop engine and wait for 10 minutes.
3. Check the engine oil level and add engine oil. Refer to MA-33, "
Changing Engine Oil" .
Draining WaterELS000CJ
1. Prepare a tray at the drain hose open end.
2. Loosen drain cock, and operate priming pump to drain water
from fuel filter.
CAUTION:

Water in filter is drained with fuel. Prepare larger capacity
pan than fuel filter volume.

Drained water is mixed with fuel. Prevent fuel from adher-
ing to rubber parts such as engine mount insulator.
3. After draining, close drain cock by hand.
CAUTION:
If drain cock is tightened excessively, it may be damaged
and fuel will leak. Do not use tools to tighten drain cock.
4. Bleed air in fuel piping. Refer to FL-18, "
Air Bleeding" .
5. Start engine and make sure there is no fuel leakage.

Changing M/T OilELS000BD
1. Drain oil from drain plug and refill with new gear oil.
2. Check oil level.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
Checking A/T FluidELS000BV
1. Warm up engine.
2. Check for fluid leakage.
3. Before driving, fluid level can be checked at fluid temperatures of 30 to 50°C (86 to 122°F) using “COLD”
range on dipstick.
a. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear position. Leave selector lever in “P” position.
c. Check fluid level with engine idling.
d. Remove dipstick and wipe clean lint-free paper.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the dipstick, always use lint-free paper, not cloth one.
e. Re-insert dipstick into charging pipe as far as it will go.
CAUTION:
To check fluid level, insert the dipstick until the cap contacts the end of the A/T fluid charging pipe,
with the dipstick reversed from the normal attachment conditions.
f. Remove dipstick and note reading. If reading is at low side of range, add fluid to the A/T fluid charging
pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill.
4. Drive vehicle for approximately 5 minutes in urban areas.
5. Re-check fluid level at fluid temperatures of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) using “HOT” range on dipstick.
CAUTION:

When wiping away the dipstick, always use lint-free paper, not cloth one.

To check fluid level, insert the dipstick until the cap contacts the end of the A/T fluid charging
pipe, with the dipstick reversed from the normal attachment conditions.Oil grade:
