Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
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 dumpers 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/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. Sunvisor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headlining 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.
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.

Installation
1. Temporarily tighten the mounting bolts to the rear sunroof brackets (RH/LH).
2. Bring sunroof unit into passenger compartment, and then place the rear end of the rail onto the rear sun-
roof brackets.
3. Temporarily tighten the mounting nuts to the front end of sunroof unit assembly.
4. Tighten the installation points diagonally excluding the installation point of the sunroof bracket around the

5. Tighten the front sunroof bracket bolts of the vehicle side, and then tighten the bolt of the rail side.
6. Tighten the rear sunroof bracket bolts of the vehicle side, and then tighten the bolt of the rail side.
7. Tighten the mounting nuts to the front end and side rail.
8. Move the sunroof motor assembly laterally by little by little so that the gear is completely engaged into the
wire on the sunroof unit assembly and mounting surface becomes parallel. Then secure the sunroof motor
assembly with screws.
CAUTION:
Before installing the sunroof motor assembly, be sure to the place the link and wire assembly in
the symmetrical and fully closed position.
9. Install glass lid.
NOTE:
After installation, carry out fitting adjustment.
10. Connect drain hoses.
11. Install headlining. Refer to EI-52, "

10. Apply anti-corrosion oil to the thread and seat of drive pinion
lock nut, and temporarily tighten drive pinion lock nut to drive
pinion.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse drive pinion lock nut.
11. Adjust to the drive pinion lock nut tightening torque and pinion
bearing preload torque.
CAUTION:
Adjust to the lower limit of the drive pinion lock nut tight-
ening torque first.
If the preload torque exceeds the specified value, replace
collapsible spacer and tighten it again to adjust. Do not
loosen drive pinion lock nut to adjust the preload torque.
After adjustment, rotate drive pinion back and forth 2 to 3
times to check for unusual noise, rotation malfunction,
and other malfunctions.
12. Install differential case assembly. Refer to RFD-33, "
Differential Assembly" .
CAUTION:
Do not install rear cover yet.
13. Check and adjust drive gear runout, tooth contact, drive gear to drive pinion backlash, and companion
flange runout. Refer to RFD-19, "
Drive Gear Runout" , RFD-20, "Tooth Contact" , RFD-21, "Backlash" ,
RFD-22, "
Companion Flange Runout" .
Recheck above items. Readjust the above description, if necessary.
14. Check total preload torque. Refer to RFD-19, "
Total Preload Torque" .
15. Install rear cover. Refer to RFD-33, "
Differential Assembly" .
