7. Check foreign materials in oil pan to help determine causes of
malfunction. If the ATF is very dark, smells burned, or contains
foreign particles, the frictional material (clutches, band) may
need replacement. A tacky film that will not wipe clean indicates
varnish build up. Varnish can cause valves, servo, and clutches
to stick and can inhibit pump pressure.

If frictional material is detected, perform A/T fluid cooler
cleaning. Refer to AT- 1 4 , "
A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning" .
8. Support A/T assembly with a transmission jack.
CAUTION:
When setting transmission jack, place wooden blocks to
prevent from damaging control valve with TCM and trans-
mission case.
9. Remove rear engine mounting member with power tool. Refer to AT- 2 7 4 , "
Removal and Installation (2WD
Models)" .
10. Remove rear extension assembly (VQ35DE models) or output shaft & companion flange complement
(VK45DE models) according to the following procedures.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
WARNING:
Make sure all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system is
less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove it.
CAUTION:
When replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components, observe the following.

When the compressor is removed, store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car. Fail-
ure to do so will cause lubricant to enter the low-pressure chamber.

When connecting tubes, always use a torque wrench and a back-up wrench.

After disconnecting tubes, immediately plug all openings to prevent entry of dust and moisture.

When installing an air conditioner in the vehicle, connect the pipes at the final stage of the opera-
tion. Never remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for con-
nection.

Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.

Thoroughly remove moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.

Always replace used O-rings.

When connecting tubes, apply lubricant to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration. Be careful
not to apply lubricant to threaded portion.

O-ring must be closely attached to the groove of tube.

When replacing the O-ring, be careful not to damage O-ring and tube.

Connect tube until a click can be heard, then tighten the nut or bolt by hand. Make sure that the O-
ring is installed to tube correctly.

After connecting line, perform leak test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections.
When the refrigerant leaking point is found, disconnect that line and replace the O-ring. Then
tighten connections of seal seat to the specified torque.
Precautions for Servicing CompressorNJS000FT

Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.

When the compressor is removed, store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car.

When replacing or repairing compressor, follow “Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compres-
sor” exactly. Refer to AT C - 2 6 , "
Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compressor" .

Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. If the surface is contaminated with lubri-
cant, wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened with thinner.Name : Nissan A/C System Oil Type S

Operation
1. Control Valve
–By changing high-pressure valve lift amount, built-in electronic control valve executes the following:
 Controls high-pressure valve discharge amount.
 Changes crankcase pressure in compressor.
 Changes angle of swash plate.
–Amount of high-pressure valve lift is determined by factors below.
 Low-pressure applied to diaphragm
 Spring load of set spring
 Balance of magnetic force generated in magnet coil
–Electronic control valve (ECV) magnet coil receives electric signal (duty control) from unified meter and A/
C amp. Then, magnetic force generated by electric current is changed to control high-pressure valve lift
amount.
2. Maximum Cooling
High-pressure valve is closed by magnetic force generated by electric signal sent from unified meter and
A/C amp. At this time, cylinder moves full stroke due to pressure balance between inside crankcase (Pc)
and suction line (Ps).
Under this condition, the swash plate is set to the maximum stroke position.
3. Capacity Control
When no electric signal is sent from unified meter and A/C amp. (current: OFF), high-pressure valve is
opened by spring force.
Since suction pressure is low, it makes the suction port close and the discharge port open. Thus, crank-
case pressure becomes high as high-pressure enters the crankcase.
–The force acts around the link near the swash plate, and is generated by the pressure difference before
and behind the piston.
–The thrust flange and link are located where the piston generates the highest pressure. Piston pressure is
between suction pressure Ps and discharge pressure Pd, which is close to suction pressure Ps. If crank-
case pressure Pc rises due to capacity control, the force around the link makes the swash plate angle
decrease and also the piston stroke decrease. In other words, crankcase pressure increase triggers pres-

REMOVAL
1. Remove low-pressure pipe 1 and high-pressure pipe 2. Refer to ATC-161, "Removal and Installation of
Low-pressure Pipe 1 and High-pressure Pipe 2" .
CAUTION:
Cap or wrap the joint of evaporator, low-pressure flexible hose and high-pressure pipe 1 with suit-
able material such as vinyl tape to avoid the entry of air.
2. Slide evaporator to passenger side, and then remove intake
sensor.
INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:

Replace O-rings of low-pressure flexible hose, low-pressure pipe 1 and high-pressure pipe 1, 2
with new ones, and then apply compressor oil to it when installing it.

Mark the mounting position of intake sensor bracket prior to removal so that the reinstalled sen-
sor can be located in the same position.

Female-side piping connection is thin and easy to deform. Slowly insert the male-side piping
straight in axial direction.

Insert piping securely until a click is heard.

After piping connection is completed, pull male-side piping by hand to make sure that connection
does not come loose.

When recharging refrigerant, check for leaks.
