ENGINE MAINTENANCE (VQ35DE ENGINE)PFP:10001
Checking Drive BeltsALS000H0
WARNING:
Be sure to perform when engine is stopped.
1. Inspect belts for cracks, fraying, wear and oil. If necessary,
replace.
2. Inspect drive belt deflection or tension at a point on the belt mid-
way between pulleys.

Inspection should be done only when engine is cold, or over
30 minutes after engine is stopped.

Measure belt tension with belt tension gauge (Commercial
Service Tool: BT3373-F or equivalent) at points marked
shown in the figure.

When measuring deflection, apply 98 N (10 kg, 22 lb) at the
marked point.

Adjust if belt deflection exceeds the limit or if belt tension is not within specifications.
CAUTION:

When checking belt deflection or tension immediately after installation, first adjust it to the
specified value. Then, after turning crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified
value to avoid variation in deflection between pulleys.

Tighten idler pulley lock nut by hand and measure deflection or tension without looseness.
Belt Deflection and Tension
*: If belt tension gauge cannot be installed at check points shown, check drive belt tension at different location on the belt.
Tension AdjustmentALS000H1
CAUTION:

When belt is replaced with a new one, adjust it to value for “New belt” to accommodate for insuffi-
cient adaptability with pulley grooves.

When deflection or tension of belt being used exceeds “Limit”, adjust it to value for “After adjust-
ment of used belt”.

When checking belt deflection or tension immediately after installation, first adjust it to the speci-
fied value. Then, after turning crankshaft two turns or more, re-adjust to the specified value to
avoid variation in deflection between pulleys.

When installing belt, make sure that it is correctly engaged with pulley grooves.

Keep engine oil, working fluid and engine coolant away from belt and pulley grooves.

Do not twist or bend belt excessively.

ALTERNATOR AND POWER STEERING OIL PUMP BELT
1. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
2. Loosen idler pulley lock nut (A) and adjust tension by turning
adjusting bolt (B).

For specified belt tension, refer to MA-14, "Checking Drive
Belts" .
3. Tighten nut (A).
AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR BELT
1. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
2. Loosen idler pulley lock nut (C) and adjust tension by turning adjusting bolt (D).

For specified belt tension, refer to MA-14, "Checking Drive Belts" .
3. Tighten nut (C).
Changing Engine CoolantALS000H2
WARNING:

To avoid being scalded, never change engine coolant when engine is hot.

Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove cap. First, turn cap a quarter of a turn to
release built-up pressure. Then turn cap all the way.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Remove front engine undercover with power tools.
2. Open radiator drain plug at the bottom of radiator, and remove
radiator cap.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive belts.
When drain all of engine coolant in the system, open water drain plugs on engine cylinder block.
Refer to EM-121, "
DISASSEMBLY" .
3. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Refer to MA-17, "
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM" . : 34.8 N·m (3.5 kg-m, 26 ft-lb)

Checking Drive BeltsALS000GP
WARNING:
Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.

Remove air duct (inlet) when inspecting drive belt for alternator, water pump and A/C compressor.

Remove undercover (with power tool) when inspecting power steering oil pump belt.

Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of each automatic tensioner is within the allowable working
range (between three line notches).
NOTE:

Check the auto tensioner indication when the engine is cold.

When the new drive belt is installed, the range should be A.

The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the tensioner for alternator, water pump and A/C
compressor belt, while it is found on the fixed side for power steering oil pump belt.

Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.

If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace the belt.
Tension AdjustmentALS000GQ
Belt tensioning is not necessary, as it is automatically adjusted by auto tensioner.
Changing Engine CoolantALS000H6
WARNING:

To avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine is hot.

Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove radiator cap. First, turn radiator cap a
quarter of a turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn radiator cap all the way.

Checking Power Steering Fluid and LinesALS000FV
Check fluid level in reservoir tank with engine off.
Use “HOT” range at fluid temperatures of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F)
or “COLD” range at fluid temperatures of 0 to 30°C (32 to 86°F).
CAUTION:

Do not overfill.

Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent.
Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS"


Check lines for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, dam-
age, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.

Check rack boots for accumulation of power steering fluid.
Axle and Suspension PartsALS000FW
Check front and rear axle and suspension parts for excessive play,
cracks, wear or other damage.

Shake each wheel to check for excessive play.

Check wheel bearings for smooth operation.

Check axle and suspension nuts and bolts for looseness.

Check strut (shock absorber) for oil leakage or other damage.

Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint
dust cover for cracks or other damage.
