< SERVICE INFORMATION >
CYLINDER BLOCK
• Be careful not to damage or deform signal plate (1)
mounted on rear end of crankshaft (A).
• When setting crankshaft on a flat floor surface, use a
block of wood to avoid interference between signal plate
and the floor surface.
• Never remove signal plate unless it is necessary to do so.
22. Pull rear oil seal out from rear end of crankshaft.
23. Remove main bearings and thrust bearings from cylinder block
and main bearing caps.
CAUTION:
Identify installation positions, and store them without mix-
ing them up.
ASSEMBLY
1. Fully air-blow engine coolant and engine oil passages in cylinder block, cylinder bore and crankcase to
remove any foreign material.
CAUTION:
Use a goggles to protect your eye.
2. Install water drain plug (1) to cylinder block.
• Apply liquid gasket to the drain plug thread.
Use Genuine Silicone RTV Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-42, "
Recommended Chemical Product and Sealant".
3. Remove dust, dirt, and engine oil on the bearing mating sur-
faces of cylinder block and main bearing cap.
4. Install thrust bearings to the both sides of the No. 3 journal hous-
ing (B) on cylinder block.
• Install thrust bearings with the oil groove (A) facing crankshaft
arm (outside).
5. Install the main bearings paying attention to the direction.
CAUTION:
• Before installing main bearings, apply new engine oil to the bearing surface (inside). Do not
apply new engine oil to the back surface, but thoroughly clean it.
• When installing, align main bearing to the center position of cylinder block and main bearing
cap.

Measure the outer diameter of piston pin with a micrometer (A).
Connecting Rod Bushing Oil Clearance
(Connecting rod bushing oil clearance) = (Connecting rod bushing inner diameter) – (Piston pin outer diame-
ter)
• If the measured value is out of the standard, replace connecting rod assembly and/or piston and piston pin
assembly.
• If replacing piston and piston pin assembly, follow the "PISTON TO PISTON PIN OIL CLEARANCE" proce-
dure.
• If replacing connecting rod assembly, follow the "Connecting Rod Bushing Oil Clearance" procedure to
select connecting rod bearing.
CYLINDER BLOCK TOP SURFACE DISTORTION
• Using a scraper, remove gasket on the cylinder block surface, and also remove engine oil, scale, carbon, or
other contamination.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow gasket flakes to enter engine oil or engine coolant passages.
• Measure the distortion on the cylinder block upper face at some
different points in six directions with a straight edge (A) and feeler
gauge (B).
• If it exceeds the limit, replace cylinder block.
MAIN BEARING HOUSING INNER DIAMETER
• Install main bearing cap without main bearings installed, and tighten main bearing cap bolts to the specified
torque. Refer to EM-77, "
Disassembly and Assembly" for the tightening procedure.
• Measure the inner diameter of main bearing housing with a bore gauge.
• Measure the position shown [5 mm (0.20 in)] backward from main
bearing housing front side in the 2 directions as shown. The
smaller one is the measured value.
• If out of the standard, replace cylinder block and main bearing
caps assembly.

SERVICE INFORMATION
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001703715
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SRS section.
• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top CoverINFOID:0000000001703716
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield.
CautionsINFOID:0000000001703717
• When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening must be carried out under unladen conditions with tires
on ground. Oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.
- Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats are in designated positions.
• After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.
• Self-lock nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing.

FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
FRONT SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceINFOID:0000000001703721
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
INSPECTION OF LOWER BALL JOINT END PLAY
1. Set front wheels in a straight-ahead position. Do not depress brake pedal.
2. Place an iron bar or similar tool between transverse link and steering knuckle.
3. Measure axial end play by prying it up and down.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot. Do not damage the installation position by applying
excessive force.
STRUT INSPECTION
Check for oil leakage, damage and replace as necessary.
Wheel Alignment InspectionINFOID:0000000001703722
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specification, inspect and replace any damaged or worn rear suspension parts before
making any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer to WT-5, "
Inspection" .
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FA X - 5 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service" .
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer to FSU-17, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*)" .
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended 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 capable 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 alignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-
bration Schedule.
THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT: Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual. Refer to FSU-16, "Wheel
Alignment (Unladen*)" .
1. When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment 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.Axial end play : 0 mm (0 in)
