Installation and Inspection of Torque Converter

After inserting a torque converter to a A/T, be sure to check dis-
tance “A” to ensure it is within the reference value limit.
INSTALLATION
Install the removed parts in the reverse order of the removal, while paying attention to the following work.

When installing A/T assembly to the engine assembly, attach the fixing bolts in accordance with the follow-
ing standard.
VQ35DE models
VK45DE models
*: No.2 bolt also secures A/T fluid charging pipe.

Align the positions of tightening bolts for drive plate with those of
the torque converter, and temporarily tighten the bolts. Then,
tighten the bolts with the specified torque. Refer to AT- 2 7 4 ,
"COMPONENTS" .
CAUTION:

When turning crankshaft, turn it clockwise as viewed from
the front of the engine.

When tightening the tightening bolts for the torque con-
verter after fixing the crankshaft pulley bolts, be sure to
confirm the tightening torque of the crankshaft pulley
mounting bolts. Refer to EM-74, "
INSTALLATION" (for
VQ35DE engine), EM-208, "
INSTALLATION" (for VK45DE
engine).

After converter is installed to drive plate, rotate crankshaft several turns and check to be sure that
A/T rotates freely without binding.Distance “A”

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

5. Remove mounting nuts from low-pressure pipe and high-pres-
sure flexible hose.
CAUTION:
Cap or wrap the joint of low-pressure pipe and high-pres-
sure flexible hose with suitable material such as vinyl tape
to avoid the entry of air.
6. Remove A/C compressor belt. Refer to EM-174, "
DRIVE BELTS" .
7. Disconnect compressor (magnet clutch and ECV) connectors.
8. Remove mounting bolts from compressor, using power tools.
9. Remove compressor downward of the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:

Replace O-rings of low-pressure flexible hose, low-pressure pipe (VK45DE) and high-pressure
flexible hose with new ones, and then apply compressor oil to it when installing it.

When recharging refrigerant, check for leaks.
Check Disc to Pulley ClearanceNJS000I7
Check clearance around entire periphery of clutch disc.
If specified clearance is not obtained, replace compressor.
