FRONT FINAL DRIVE ASSEMBLY
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
4. Turn the companion flange in both direction 20 times or more to
seat the bearing rollers.
5. Check total preload with special service tool.

If the preload value is out of standard, adjust pinion bearing
preload and side bearing preload.
Drive Gear to Drive Pinion Gear Backlash
Set the dial indicator to the drive gear face and measure the back-
lash.
If the measured value is out of standard, adjust the backlash by
replacing the side bearing adjusting shim (differential case side).

If the backlash too large, decrease side bearing adjusting shim
thickness.

If the backlash too small, increase side bearing adjusting shim
thickness.
Drive Gear Runout
1. Set dial gauge to behind the drive gear and measure the ring gear runout.
a. If the runout is exceed limit, check for drive gear assembly:

any object between the drive gear and differential case

deformed differential case

deformed drive gear
b. If drive gear is deformed, replace the drive gear and pinion gear as a set. If the differential case is
deformed, replace the differential case.
Companion Flange Runout
1. Set the dial gauge to the companion flange face and measure
runout.
2. Set the dial gauge to the inside face of the companion flange
and measure the runout.
CAUTION:
Clean inside face of companion flange before measuring
runout.
a. If runout is out side limit, remove the companion from the drive
pinion. Turn the companion flange position 90° each, and measure the runout again.
b. If runout valve still out side of the limit, replace companion flange.Tool number : ST3127S000 (see J25765-A)

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
DescriptionAAS000EV
Observe the following precautions to ensure safe and proper servicing. These precautions are not
described in each individual section.
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
AAS000EW
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:

To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions for NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM -
NATS) (If Equipped)
AAS000EX
NVIS/IVIS (NATS) will immobilize the engine if someone tries to start it without the registered key of NVIS/IVIS
(NATS).
Both of the originally supplied ignition key IDs have been NVIS/IVIS (NATS) registered.
The security indicator is located on the instrument panel. The indicator blinks when the immobilizer system is
functioning.
Therefore, NVIS/IVIS (NATS) warns outsiders that the vehicle is equipped with the anti-theft system.

When NVIS/IVIS (NATS) detects trouble, the security indicator lamp lights up while ignition switch is in
"ON" position.
This lighting up indicates that the anti-theft is not functioning, so prompt service is required.

When servicing NVIS/IVIS (NATS) (trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of
other NVIS/IVIS (NATS) ignition key IDs), CONSULT-II hardware and CONSULT-II NVIS/IVIS (NATS)
software is necessary.
Regarding the procedures of NVIS/IVIS (NATS) initialization and NVIS/IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID regis-
tration, refer to CONSULT-II operation manual, NVIS/IVIS (NATS).
Therefore, CONSULT-II NVIS/IVIS (NATS) software (program card and operation manual) must be kept
strictly confidential to maintain the integrity of the anti-theft function.

When servicing NVIS/IVIS (NATS) (trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of
other NVIS/IVIS (NATS) ignition key IDs), it may be necessary to re-register original key identification.
Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle owner. A maximum of four or five key IDs can be regis-
tered into NVIS/IVIS (NATS).

When failing to start the engine first time using the key of NVIS/IVIS (NATS), start as follows.
1. Leave the ignition key in "ON" position for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn ignition key to "OFF" or "LOCK" position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while keeping the key separate from any others on key-chain.
