< SERVICE INFORMATION >[VK45DE]
ENGINE ASSEMBLY
 Avoid damage to and oil/grease smearing or
spills onto engine mounting insulator.
4. Remove alternator. Refer to SC-19, "
System Description".
5. Remove starter motor. Refer to SC-8, "
System Description".
6. Separate engine from transmission assembly. Refer to AT-243, "
Removal and Installation (AWD Models)".
7. Remove front final drive from engine. Refer to FFD-14, "
Removal and Installation (VQ35DE Models)".
8. Remove engine mounting insulators (RH and LH) and brackets (RH and LH) from engine with power tool.
9. Remove engine rear member and engine mounting insulator (rear) from transmission.
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.
 Do not allow engine mounting insulator to be damage and careful no engine oil gets on it.
 For a location with a positioning pin, insert it securely into hole of mating part.
 For a part with a specified installation orientation, refer to component figure in "Removal and Installation".
 When installing engine mounting brackets (RH and LH) on cylinder
block, tighten two upper bolts (show n as “A” in the figure) first.
Then tighten two lower bolts (shown as “B” in the figure).
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The followings are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.
 Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-9, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
 Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
- Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-
age at connection points.
- Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leakage at connection points.
 Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
 Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leak age of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids includ-
ing engine oil and engine coolant.
 Bleed air from lines and hoses of applic able lines, such as in cooling system.
 After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
*: Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid. power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.

AWD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that a dolly be used as illustrated when towing AWD models.
CAUTION:
Never tow AWD models with any of the wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and expen-
sive damage to the powertrain.
Vehicle Recovery (Freeing a Stuck Vehicle)INFOID:0000000001325685
Securely install the vehicle recovery hook stored with jacking tools.
Make sure that the hook is properly secured in the stored place after
use.
WARNING:
 Stand clear of a stuck vehicle.
 Do not spin your tires at high speed. This could cause them to
explode and result in serious injury. Parts of your vehicle
could also overheat and be damaged.
CAUTION:
 Tow chains or cables must be attached only to the vehicle recovery hooks or main struct ural members of the vehicle.
Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
 Do not use the vehicle tie downs to free a vehicle stuck in
sand, snow, mud, etc. Never to w the vehicle using the vehicle
tie downs or recovery hooks.
 Always pull the cable straight out from the front of the vehicle.
Never pull on the hook at an angle.
 Pulling devices should be rout ed so they do not touch any
part of the suspension, steer ing, brake or cooling systems.
 Pulling devices such as ropes or canvas straps are not rec- ommended for use in vehicle towing or recovery.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
To tow a vehicle equipped with an automatic tr ansmission, an appropriate vehicle dolly MUST be placed under
the towed vehicle's drive wheels. Always follow the dolly manufacture's recommendations when using their
product.
If the vehicle is stuck in sand, snow , mud, etc., use the following procedure:
1. Turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control System.
2. Make sure the area in front and behind the vehicle is clear of obstructions.
