DIFFERENTIAL SIDE OIL SEAL
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000001703686
COMPONENTS
REMOVAL
1. Remove drive shaft assembly. Refer to FA X - 8.
2. Remove differential side oil seal using a suitable tool.
CAUTION:
Do not scratch transaxle case or converter housing.
INSTALLATION
1. Drive the new differential side oil seal into the transaxle case
side (B) and converter housing side (C) until it is flush using tool.
Unit: mm (in)
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse differential side oil seals.
• Apply specified NISSAN CVT fluid to side oil seals.
2. Install drive shaft assembly. Refer to FA X - 8
.
3. Check CVT fluid level and leakage. Refer to MA-19, "
Checking CVT Fluid".

CHECKING COMPRESSION PRESSURE
1. Warm up engine thoroughly. Then, stop it.
2. Release fuel pressure. Refer to EC-78, "
Fuel Pressure Check".
3. Disconnect fuel pump fuse (1) to avoid fuel injection during mea-
surement.
4. Remove engine cover. Refer to EM-18, "
Component".
5. Remove ignition coil and spark plug from each cylinder. Refer to EM-30
.
6. Connect an engine tachometer (not required in use of CONSULT-III).
7. Install a suitable compression tester with an adapter onto spark
plug hole.
• Use the adapter whose picking up end inserted to spark plug
hole is smaller than 20 mm (0.79 in) in diameter. Otherwise, it
may be caught by cylinder head during removal.
8. With accelerator pedal fully depressed, turn ignition switch to “START” for cranking. When the gauge
pointer stabilizes, read the compression pressure and the engine rpm. Perform these steps to check each
cylinder.
Compression pressure:
Unit: kPa (bar, kg/cm2 psi) /rpm
CAUTION:
Always use a fully charged battery to obtain the specified engine speed.

7. Pry off drive shaft from transaxle assembly side as shown.
• Make sure that circlip is attached on the edge.
CAUTION:
• Do not apply an excessive angle to drive shaft joint when
removing from the transaxle.
• Do not excessively extend slide joint.
• Do not allow drive shaft to hang down. Support the entire
drive shaft.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
• Move joint up/down, left/right, and in axial direction. Check for any rough movement or significant looseness.
• Check boot for cracks or other damage, and for grease leakage.
• If damaged, disassemble drive shaft to verify damage, and repair
or replace as necessary.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal. Note the following:
• Refer to "COMPONENTS" for tightening torque.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse non-reusable parts.
• In order to prevent damage to differential side oil seal, place Tool
onto oil seal before inserting drive shaft as shown. Slide drive shaft
into slide joint and tap with a hammer to install securely.
• Install new circlip on drive shaft in the circlip groove on transaxle
side. Refer to FAX-12, "
Disassembly and Assembly (Left Side)" .
CAUTION:
Make sure the new circlip on the drive shaft is securely fas-
tened.
• After its insertion, try to pull the flange out of the slide joint by hand.
If it pulls out, the circlip is not properly meshed with the transaxle
side gear.
