ENGINE MAINTENANCE (VK45DE ENGINE)PFP:10001
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 front engine undercover with power tool when inspecting power steering oil pump belt.

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

Check auto tensioner indication when engine is cold.

When 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 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.

Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive belts.

4. Loosen oil filler cap, and then remove drain plug.
5. Drain engine oil.
6. Install drain plug with new washer. Refer to EM-185, "
OIL PAN
AND OIL STRAINER" .
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new washer.

Engine oil capacity (Approximate):
Unit: (US qt, Imp qt)
CAUTION:

The refill capacity depends on the engine oil temperature and drain time. Use these specifica-
tions for reference only.

Always use oil level gauge to determine the proper amount of engine oil in the engine.
8. Warm up engine and check area around drain plug and oil filter for oil leakage.
9. Stop engine and wait for 15 minutes.
10. Check the engine oil level.

Checking Seat Belt, Buckles, Retractors, Anchors and AdjustersALS000YT
CAUTION:

After any collision, inspect all seat belt assemblies, including retractors and other attached hard-
wares (I.e. anchor bolt, guide rail set). Nissan recommends to replace all seat belt assemblies in
use during a collision, unless not damaged and properly operating after minor collision.
Also inspect seat belt assemblies not in use during a collision, and replace if damaged or improp-
erly operating.
Seat belt pre-tensioner should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during a frontal col-
lision where the driver and passenger air bags are deployed.

If any component of seat belt assembly is questionable, do not repair.
Replace as seat belt assembly.

If webbing is cut, frayed, or damaged, replace belt assembly.

Never oil tongue and buckle.

Use a genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.
For details, refer to Refer to Service Manual in SB section.

Check anchors for loose mounting

Check belts for damage

Check retractor for smooth operation

Check function of buckles and tongues when buckled and released

POWER STEERING OIL PUMP
Revision: 2005 July 2005 FX
1. Connect oil pressure gauge (SST) and oil pressure gauge
adapter (SST) between oil pump discharge connector and high
pressure hose and then bleed air from the hydraulic circuit.
2. Start engine. Allow engine to run until tank temperature reaches 50 to 80 °C (122 to 176 °F).
CAUTION:

Warm up engine with shut-off valve fully opened. If engine is started with shut-off valve closed,
fluid pressure in power steering pump increases to maximum. This will raise fluid temperature
excessively.

Be careful not to contact hose with belt when engine is started.
3. With engine at idle, close shut-off valve and read the relief oil pressure.
CAUTION:
Do not close shut-off valve of pressure gauge for more than 10 seconds.
4. After measurement, open shut-off valve slowly. If relief oil pressure is outside the specification, disassemble and repair oil pump. Refer to PS-37, "
Disas-
sembly and Assembly (VK45DE Models)" .
5. After inspection, disconnect oil pressure gauge (SST) and oil pressure gauge adapter (SST) from hydrau- lic circuit, connect oil pump discharge connector and high pressure hose. Add fluid and bleed air from
hydraulic circuit thoroughly. Refer to PS-8, "
Air Bleeding Hydraulic System" .
