2. Apply brake fluid to piston, rubber grease to piston boot, then
install piston boot in to piston groove.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston boot.
3. Insert into cylinder body by hand and insert piston boot piston-side lip into piston groove. CAUTION:
Press piston evenly and vary the pressing point to prevent cylinder inner wall from being rubbed.
4. Install sliding pins and sliding pin boots to torque member.
5. Attach inner shim and inner shim cover to inner pad, and attach the outer shim to the outer pad.

DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks, and serious damage. If any of them is detected, replace
applicable part.
Runout Inspection
1. Using wheel nuts, fix disc rotor to wheel hub. (2 or more positions)
2. Inspect runout using a dial gauge. [Measured at 10 mm (0.39 in) inside the disc edge.]
NOTE:
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the specifi-
cations before measuring runout. Refer to FAX-4, "
On-Vehicle
Inspection and Service" .
3. If runout is outside the limit, find the minimum runout point by shifting mounting positions of disc rotor and wheel hub by one hole.
4. If runout is still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car brake lathe. (“MAD DL-8700”, “AMMCO 700 and 705” or equivalent.)
Thickness Inspection
Using a micrometer, check thickness of disc rotor. If thickness is out-
side the standard, replace disc rotor.

4. Fix piston boot with retaining ring.
CAUTION:

Make sure boot is firmly in cylinder body groove.

Do not reuse retaining ring.
5. Install sliding pin bolt and sliding pin boots to torque member.
6. Apply PBC (Poly Butyl Cuprysil) grease or silicon-based grease to the backside of pad and to both sides of shim, and attach inner shim and shim cover to inner pad, and the outer shim and outer shim cover to
outer pad.
7. Assembling shims and shim covers to pad. CAUTION:
When attaching pad retainer, attach it firmly so that it does
not float up higher than torque member, as shown in the fig-
ure.
8. Attach pad retainer and pad to torque member.
9. Install cylinder body. Tighten sliding pin bolts to the specified torque.
DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks, and serious damage. If any non-standard condition is
detected, replace applicable part.
Runout Inspection
1. Using wheel nuts, fix disc rotor to wheel hub. (2 or more positions)
2. Inspect runout using a dial gauge. [Measured at 10 mm (0.39 in) inside disk edge.]
NOTE:
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the specifi-
cation before measuring runout. Refer to RAX-5, "
On-Vehicle
Inspection and Service" .
3. If runout is outside the limit, find the minimum runout point by shifting mounting positions of disc rotor and wheel hub by one
hole.
4. If runout still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car brake lathe (“MAD, DL-8700”, “AMMCO 700 and 705” or equivalent).

Removal and InstallationAFS001Z3
REMOVAL
1. Disconnect wheel sensor connector.
2. Remove wheel sensor mounting bolts, grommets (front sensor) and clip.
3. Remove wheel sensor.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following when installing sensor.

As much as possible, avoid rotating sensor when removing it. Pull sensors out without pulling on
sensor harness.

Take care to avoid damaging sensor edges or rotor teeth. Remove wheel sensor first before
removing front wheel hub and bearing assembly and rear final drive. This is to avoid damage to
sensor wiring and loss of sensor function.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Be careful of the following when installing sensor. Tighten installation bolts to specified torques.

When installing, make sure there is no foreign material such as iron chips on pick-up and mount-
ing hole of sensor. Make sure no foreign material has been caught in the sensor rotor. Remove
any foreign material and clean the mount.

When installing front sensor, be sure to press rubber grommets in until they lock at the three loca-
tions shown in the figure (2 at shock absorbers and 1 at body panel). When installed, harness
must not be twisted. White line on harness must be visible from front.

Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery DisconnectABS00DB1
NOTE:

This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM - NATS).

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 NVIS/IVIS, an electrically controlled steering lock
mechanism 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.
Precautions for Drain Engine Coolant and Engine OilABS006HV
Drain engine coolant and engne oil when engine is cooled.
Precautions for Disconnecting Fuel PipingABS006HW

Before starting work, make sure no fire or spark producing items are in the work area.

Release fuel pressure before disconnecting and disassembly.

After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precautions for Removal and DisassemblyABS006HX

When instructed to use SST, use specified tools. Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or unin-
structed operations.

Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.

Cover openings of engine system with tape or the equivalent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.

Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organized way for easy troubleshooting and assembly.

When loosening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, start with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally
opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified. Power tools may be
used where noted in the step.
Precautions for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementABS006HY
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.
Precautions for Assembly and InstallationABS006HZ

Use torque wrench to tighten bolts or nuts to specification.
