VALVE SEAT CONTACT
After confirming that the dimensions of the valve guides and
valves are within specifications, perform this procedure.
Apply prussian blue (or white lead) onto the contacting surface
of the valve seat to check the condition of the valve contact on
the surface.
Check if the contact area band is continuous all around the cir-
cumference.
If not, grind to adjust the valve fit and check again. If the contact-
ing surface still has NG conditions even after the re-check,
replace the valve seat.
VALVE SEAT REPLACEMENT
When the valve seat is removed, replace it with oversized (0.5 mm, 0.020 in) valve seat.
1. Bore out the old seat until it collapses. Boring should not continue beyond the bottom face of the seat
recess in the cylinder head. Set the machine depth stop to ensure this.
2. Ream the cylinder head recess diameter for service valve seat.
Be sure to ream in circles concentric to the valve guide center.
This will enable valve seat to fit correctly.
3. Heat the cylinder head to 110° to 130°C (230° to 266°F) by
soaking it in heated oil.
4. Cool the valve seats well with dry ice. Force fit the valve seat into the cylinder head.
CAUTION:
Avoid directly touching cold valve seats.
Cylinder head contains heat. When working, wear protective equipment to avoid getting burned.
5. Finish the seat to the specified dimensions using suitable tool.
Refer to EM-103, "
Valve Seat" .
CAUTION:
When using valve seat cutter, firmly grip the cutter handle
with both hands. Then, press on the contacting surface all
around the circumference to cut in a single drive. Improper
pressure on the cutter or cutting many different times may
result in stage valve seat.

12. Install the connecting rod bearings to the connecting rod and
connecting rod cap.
When installing the connecting rod bearings, apply engine oil
to the bearing surface (inside). Do not apply oil to the back
surface, but thoroughly clean it.
When installing, align the connecting rod bearing stopper pro-
trusion with the cutout of the connecting rod to install.
Check that the oil holes on the connecting rod and those on
the corresponding bearing are aligned.
13. Install the piston and connecting rod assembly to the crankshaft
using Tool.
Position the crankshaft pin corresponding to the connecting
rod to be installed onto bottom dead center.
Apply engine oil sufficiently to the cylinder bore, piston, and
crankshaft pin.
Match the cylinder position with the cylinder No. on the con-
necting rod to install.
Install the piston with the front mark on the piston crown fac-
ing the front of the engine.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the crankshaft pin, resulting from an interference of the connecting
rod big end.
14. Install connecting rod cap.
Match the stamped cylinder number marks on the connecting
rod with those on the cylinder cap to install.
15. Tighten connecting rod bolts using Tool.
Apply engine oil to threads and seats of connecting rod bolts.
After tightening bolts, make sure the crankshaft rotates
smoothly.
Check connecting rod side clearance. Refer to EM-89, "CON-
NECTING ROD SIDE CLEARANCE"

SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid bumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINER
Noises in the sunroof/headliner area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sun visor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headliner and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
OVERHEAD CONSOLE (FRONT AND REAR)
Overhead console noises are often caused by the console panel clips not being engaged correctly. Most of
these incidents are repaired by pushing up on the console at the clip locations until the clips engage.
In addition look for:
1. Loose harness or harness connectors.
2. Front console map/reading lamp lense loose.
3. Loose screws at console attachment points.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the position the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.

Tapping or moving the components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. You can usually insulate the areas with felt cloth tape or insulator foam blocks from
the NISSAN Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-43980) to repair the noise.
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid bumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-

SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sun visor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headliner and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
