Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
Checking Fuel LinesNLS0007K
Inspect fuel lines, filler cap and tank for improper attachment, leaks,
cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or deterioration.
If necessary, repair or replace damaged parts.
Changing Air Cleaner FilterNLS0007L
VISCOUS PAPER TYPE
The viscous paper type filter does not need cleaning between replacement intervals. Refer to MA-7,
"PERIODIC MAINTENANCE" .
Changing Engine OilNLS0007M
WAR NING :
Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer; try to avoid direct
skin contact with used engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand
cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Warm up the engine, and check for engine oil leakage from engine components. Refer to LU-7, "
ENGINE
OIL LEAKAGE" .
2. Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.
3. Loosen oil filler cap.
4. Remove mounting bolts, and then pull down the rear of front
engine under cover (1) and secure it using clip.
5. Remove drain plug (2) and then drain engine oil.
6. Install drain plug with new washer. Refer to EM-29, "
OIL PAN AND OIL STRAINER" .
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new washer.
7. Refill with new engine oil.
Engine oil specification and viscosity:
Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

7. Refill with new engine oil.
Engine oil specification and viscosity:
Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .
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.
Changing Oil FilterNLS0007W
REMOVAL
WAR NING :
Be careful not to get burned when the engine and engine oil may be hot.
1. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
2. Using the oil filter wrench (SST), remove the oil filter.
CAUTION:
Oil filter is provided with relief valve. Use Genuine Nissan
Oil Filter or equivalent.
When removing, prepare a shop cloth to absorb any
engine oil leakage or spillage.
Do not allow engine oil to adhere to drive belts.
Completely wipe off any engine oil that adhere to engine
and vehicle.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove foreign materials adhering to oil filter installation surface.
2. Apply new engine oil to the oil seal circumference of the new oil
filter.
Drain and refillWith oil filter change 5.5 (5-3/4, 4-7/8)
without oil filter change 4.9 (5-1/8, 4-1/4)
Dry engine (engine overhaul) 6.7 (7-1/8, 5-7/8)

Changing Differential Gear OilNLS00086
1. Drain oil from drain plug and refill with new gear oil.
(For details, refer to FFD-8, "
Changing Differential Gear Oil" and RFD-9, "Changing Differential Gear Oil"
.)
2. Check oil level.
Balancing Wheels (Bonding Weight Type)NLS00087
REMOVAL
1. Remove inner and outer balance weights from the road wheel.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.
2. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced adhesive tape from the road wheel.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.
After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean traces of releasing agent from the road
wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE ADJUSTMENT
If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting,
select and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for road wheels.
1. Set road wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer unbalance values are shown on the wheel balancer indicator, multiply outer unbal-
ance value by 5/3 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight with
a value closest to the calculated value above and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the
designated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:
Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight. Oil grade and Viscosity:
Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS
AND LUBRICANTS" .
