24. Remove A/C compressor with piping connected from the engine. Temporarily secure it on the vehicle side
with a rope to avoid putting load on it. Refer to MTC-84, "
Removal and Installation of Compressor" .
25. Remove the intake manifold to prevent the hanging chain from interfering. Refer to EM-18, "
Components"
.
26. Install engine slinger to cylinder head front left side (A) and rear
right side (B) and support the engine position with a hoist.
27. Support engine and transaxle assembly with a hoist and secure the engine in appropriate position.
28. Use a manual lift table caddy (A) or equivalently rigid tool such
as a transmission jack. Securely support bottom of the engine
and the transaxle, and simultaneously adjust hoist tension.
CAUTION:
Put a piece of wood or something similar as the supporting
surface, secure a completely stable condition.
29. Remove torque rod (RH) (1), engine insulator (RH) (2) and
engine bracket (RH) (3).
30. Remove engine through bolt-securing nut (C).
31. Remove the engine and the transaxle assembly from the vehicle downward by carefully operating sup-
porting tools.
CAUTION:

During the operation, make sure that no part interferes with the vehicle side.

Before and during this lifting, always check if any harnesses are left connected.

During the removal operation, always be careful to prevent the vehicle from falling off the lift
due to changes in the center of gravity.

If necessary, support the vehicle by setting jack or suitable tool at the rear.

During operation, securely support the engine by placing a piece of wood under the engine oil
pan and transaxle oil pan. Securely support the engine slingers with a hoist.
32. When the engine hoisting is not performed simultaneously, install engine slinger to cylinder head front left
side and rear right side. Refer to EM-73, "
Components" .
33. Remove starter motor. Refer to SC-10, "
STARTING SYSTEM" .
34. Lift with a hoist and position above engine.
35. Separate the engine and the transaxle. Refer to AT - 2 5 3 , "
TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY" (A/T models), CVT-
207, "TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY" (CVT models) or MT-15, "TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY" (M/T models).

SERVICE INFORMATION FOR ELECTRICAL INCIDENT
Revision: June 20062007 Versa

Do not apply excessive shock to the control unit by dropping or
hitting it.

Be careful to prevent condensation in the control unit due to
rapid temperature changes and do not let water or rain get on it.
If water is found in the control unit, dry it fully and then install it in
the vehicle.

Be careful not to let oil to get on the control unit connector.

Avoid cleaning the control unit with volatile oil.

Do not disassemble the control unit, and do not remove the
upper and lower covers.

When using a DMM, be careful not to let test probes get close to
each other to prevent the power transistor in the control unit
from damaging battery voltage because of short circuiting.

When checking input and output signals of the control unit, use
the specified check adapter.

LIFTING POINT
Revision: June 20062007 Versa
LIFTING POINTPFP:00000
Special Service Tools EAS001ZY
CAUTION:

Every time the vehicle is lifted up, maintain the complete vehicle curb condition.

Since the vehicle's center of gravity changes when removing main parts on the front side (engine,
transmission, suspension etc.), support a jack up point on the rear side garage jack with a mission
jack or equivalent.

Since the vehicle's center of gravity changes when removing main parts on the rear side (rear axle,
suspension, etc.), support a jack up point on the front side garage jack with a mission jack or
equivalent.

Be careful not to smash or do not do anything that would affect piping parts.
Garage Jack and Safety Stand and 2-Pole LiftEAS001ZZ
WAR NIN G:

Park the vehicle on a level surface when using the jack. Make sure to avoid damaging pipes,
tubes, etc. under the vehicle.

Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack. Always use safety stands when
you have to get under the vehicle.

Place wheel chocks at both front and back of the wheels on the ground.

When lifting the vehicle, open the lift arms as wide as possible and ensure that the front and rear
of the vehicle are well balanced.

When setting the lift arm, do not allow the arm to contact the brake tubes, brake cable, fuel lines
and sill spoiler.

Abbreviations: R = Replace. I = Inspect. Correct or replace if necessary. L = Lubricate.
(1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) oil (exc. LSD) at
every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months, and change LSD gear oil every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or 12 months.
(2) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, inspect CVT fluid deterioration with CON-
SULT-II every 60,000 miles (96,000 km), then change CVT fluid NS-2 if necessary. If CONSULT-II is not available, change (not just
inspect) CVT fluid NS-2 every 60,000 miles (96,000 km). Using transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2 will
damage the CVT, which is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty.
(3) Refer to “Tire rotation” under the “GENERAL MAINTENANCE” heading earlier in this section.
