DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY
ENGINE STAND SETTING
SettingINFOID:0000000003802278
NOTE:
Explained here is how to disassemble with engine stand supporting transaxle surface. When using different
type of engine stand, note with difference in steps and etc.
1. Remove the engine assembly from the vehicle. Refer to EM-67, "
Exploded View".
2. Remove the parts that may restrict installation of engine to widely use engine stand.
NOTE:
The procedure is described assuming that you use a widely use engine stand holding the surface, to
which transmission is installed.
Remove drive plate. Fix crankshaft pulley with the pulley holder (commercial service tool), and remove
mounting bolts.
Loosen mounting bolts in diagonal order.
Check for deformation or damage drive plate.
CAUTION:
Never disassemble drive plate.
Never place drive plate with signal plate facing down.
When handling signal plate, take care not to damage or scratch it.
Handle signal plate in a manner that prevents it from becoming magnetized.
3. Remove pilot converter using the pilot bushing puller (SST) as
necessary.
4. Lift the engine with hoist to install it onto the widely use engine stand.
CAUTION:
Use an engine stand that has a load capacity [220 kg (485 lb) or more] large enough for supporting
the engine weight.
If the load capacity of the stand is not adequate, remove the following parts beforehand to reduce the
potential risk of overturning the stand.
- Remove intake manifold collector. Refer to EM-28, "
Exploded View".
- Remove intake manifold. Refer to EM-32, "
Exploded View".
- Remove fuel injector and fuel tube assembly. Refer to EM-44, "
Exploded View".
- Remove ignition coil. Refer to EM-49, "
Exploded View".
- Remove rocker cover. Refer to EM-49, "
Exploded View".
- Remove exhaust manifold. Refer to EM-34, "
Exploded View".
- Other removable brackets.

COMPRESSOR SYSTEM SYMPTOMS
Symptom TableINFOID:0000000003795808
Follow the next table and perform trouble diagnosis if there is a compressor unit malfunction (internal noise,
insufficient cooling).
*1: First conduct inspection according to trouble diagnosis for each malfunction. Refer to HAC-88, "
Inspection
procedure".
*2: Applicable to variable capacity compressor only.
Symptom Inspection method Check list Result Action

HFC-134a (R-134a) Service Tool and Equipment Never mix HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant and/or its specified lubricant with CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and/
or its lubricant.
Separate and non-interchangeable service equipment must be used for handling each type of refrigerant/
lubricant.
Refrigerant container fittings, service hose fittings and service equipment fittings (equipment which handles
refrigerant and/or lubricant) are different between CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). This is to avoid
mixed use of the refrigerants/lubricant.
Never use adapters that convert one size fitting to another: refrigerant/lubricant contamination occurs and
compressor malfunction may result.

RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Fluids and LubricantsINFOID:0000000003858223
*1: For further details, see “SAE Viscosity Number”.
*2: Use Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminum corrosion within the engine
cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant.
Note that any repairs for the incidents within the engine cooling system while using non-genuine engine coolant may not be
covered by the warranty even if such incidents occurred during the warranty period.
*3: Using transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT fluid NS-2 will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the war-
ranty.
*4: DEXRON
™ VI type ATF can be used.
*5: Never mix different types of fluids (DOT3 and DOT4).
