• If vehicle height is not within ± 10 mm (0.39 in) of the specification, perform the control unit initialization
procedure. Refer to SCS-7, "
CONSULT-III Function" .
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is re commended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel
is centered.
• The alignment machine itself should be ca pable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level.
2. Make sure the alignment machine is properly calibrated. • Your alignment machine should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
• Check with the manufacturer of your specific a lignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-
bration Schedule.
THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT: Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual. Refer to RSU-28, "Wheel
Alignment" .
1. When displaying the alignment settings, many alignm ent machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.
• The alignment specifications programmed into your alignment machine that operate these indicators
may not be correct.
• This may result in an ERROR.
2. Some newer alignment machines are equipped with an optional “Rolling Compensation” method to “com-
pensate” the sensors (alignment targets or head units). Do NOT use this “Rolling Compensation”
method.
• Use the “Jacking Compensation” method. After installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.
• See Instructions in the alignment machine you are using for more information.
CAMBER
1. Measure camber of both the right and left wheels with a suitable alignment gauge and adjust as necessary to specification.
2. If outside of the specified value, adjust the camber using the adjusting bolt in the front lower link.
CAUTION:
After adjusting the camber then check the toe-in.
NOTE:
Camber changes about 0 ° 5' with each graduation of the adjust-
ing bolt.
3. Tighten the adjusting bolt nuts to specification.
TOE-IN
1. Bounce the rear of the vehicle up and down two to three times to stabilize the vehicle height. Refer to RSU-29, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)" .
2. Push the vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft). Camber : Refer to
RSU-28, "
Wheel Alignment" .

• All parts should be carefully cleaned with a general purpose, non-flammable solvent before inspection or reassembly.
• Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time the transmission is disassembled.
• It is very important to perform func tional tests whenever they are indicated.
• The valve body contains precision parts and requires extreme care when parts are removed and serviced. Place disassembled valve body parts in order for easier and proper assembly. Care will also prevent springs
and small parts from becoming scattered or lost.
• Properly installed valves, sleeves, plugs, etc. will slide along bores in valve body under their own weight.
• Before assembly, apply a coat of recommended ATF to all parts. Apply petroleum jelly to protect O-rings and
seals, or hold bearings and washers in pl ace during assembly. Do not use grease.
• Extreme care should be taken to avoid damage to O-rings, seals and gaskets when assembling.
• Clean or replace ATF cooler if excessive foreign material is found in oil pan or clogging strainer. Refer to TM-
182, "A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning".
• After overhaul, refill the transmission with new ATF.
• When the A/T drain plug is removed, only some of the fluid is drained. Old A/T fluid will remain in torque con- verter and ATF cooling system.
Always follow the procedures under “Changing A/T Fluid” in the AT section when changing A/T fluid. Refer to
TM-180, "
Changing the A/T Fluid (ATF)".
Service Notice or PrecautionINFOID:0000000001531487
ATF COOLER SERVICE
• If A/T fluid contains fictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), or if an A/T is repaired, overhauled, or replaced,
inspect and clean the A/T fluid cooler mounted in the radiat or or replace the radiator. Flush cooler lines with
cleaning solvent and compressed air after repair. For A/T fluid cooler cleaning procedure, refer to TM-182,
"A/T Fluid Cooler Cleaning". For radiator replacement, refer to CO-15, "Removal and Installation".
CHECKING AND CHANGING A/T FLUID
• Increase ATF oil temperature to 80 °C (176° F) first, then check and adjust oil level at 65 °C (149° F).
NOTE:
The A/T has both water cooling and air cooling systems. The air cooling system has a bypass valve. When
ATF oil temperature is at or below 50 °C (122° F), it does not flow through the air cooled system. If A/T oil
level is adjusted without flow throughout the entir e system, the level will be 10mm lower than required.
Therefore, all piping should be filled with oil when adjusting level.
OBD-II SELF-DIAGNOSIS
• A/T self-diagnosis is performed by the TCM in combination with the ECM. Refer to the table on TM-32,
"CONSULT-III Function (TRANSMISSION)" for the indicator used to display each self-diagnostic result.
• The self-diagnostic results indicated by the MIL are automatically stored in both the ECM and TCM memo- ries.
Always perform the procedure on TM-30, "
OBD-II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)" to complete the
repair and avoid unnecessary blinking of the MIL.
For details of OBD-II, refer to TM-30
.
• Certain systems and components, especially those related to OBD, may use the new style slide-
locking type harness connector. For descrip tion and how to disconnect, refer to PG-65
.
