24. Remove A/C compressor with piping connected from t
he engine. Temporarily secure it on the vehicle side
with a rope to avoid putting load on it. Refer to MTC-80, " Removal and Installation of Compressor -
MR18DE " .
25. Remove the intake manifold to prevent the hanging chain from interfering. Refer to EM-141, " Compo-
nent " .
26. Install engine slinger to cylinder head front left side (A) and rear right side (B) and support the engine position with a hoist.
27. Support engine and transaxle assembly with a hoist and secure the engine in appropriate position.
28. Use a manual lift table caddy (A) or equivalently rigid tool such as a transmission jack. Securely support bottom of the engine
and the transaxle, and simultaneously adjust hoist tension.
CAUTION:
Put a piece of wood or someth ing similar as the supporting
surface, secure a completely stable condition.
29. Remove torque rod (RH) (1), engine insulator (RH) (2) and engine bracket (RH) (3).
30. Remove engine through bolt-securing nut (C).
31. Remove the engine and the transaxle assembly from the vehicle downward by carefully operating sup- porting tools.
CAUTION:
• During the operation, make sure that no part interferes with the vehicle side.
• Before and during this lifting, alw ays check if any harnesses are left connected.
• During the removal operation, alw ays be careful to prevent the vehicle from falling off the lift due
to changes in the center of gravity.
• If necessary, support the vehicle by setting jack or suitable tool at the rear.
• During operation, securely suppor t the engine by placing a piece of wood under the engine oil
pan and transaxle oil pan. Securely sup port the engine slingers with a hoist.
32. Remove starter motor. Refer to SC-9 .
33. Separate the engine and the transaxle and mount the engine on a suitable engine stand. Refer to AT-232(A/T models),

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following 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-14 .
• 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 applicable 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.

diameter. Refer to EM-216, " Inspection After Disassem-
bly " .

How to Select Piston and Bearing
INFOID:0000000004307160
DESCRIPTION
• The identification grade stamped on each part is the grade for the dimension measured in new condition.
This grade cannot apply to reused parts.
• For reused or repaired parts, measure the dimens ion accurately. Determine the grade by comparing the
measurement with the values of each selection table.
• For details of the measurement method of each part , the reuse standards and the selection method of the
selective fitting parts, follow the applicable procedures.
HOW TO SELECT PISTON
When New Cylinder Block is Used • Check the cylinder bore grade on rear left side of cylinder block (L), and select piston of the same grade.
• If there is a correction stamp mark on the cylinder block, use it as a correct reference.
When Cylinder Block is Reused 1. Measure the cylinder bore inner diameter. Refer to EM-216, " Inspection After Disassembly " .
2. Determine the bore grade by comparing the measur ement with the values under the cylinder bore inner
diameter of the “Piston Selection Table”. Selection points Selection parts Selection items Selection methods
Between cylinder block and
crankshaft Main bearing
Main bearing grade (bearing

necting rod Connecting rod bearing

SERVICE INFORMATION
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER" INFOID:0000000004784390
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severi ty 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 w hether 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 inoper ative, 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 in correct removal and installation of the SRS can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SRS section.
• Do not use electrical test equipm ent on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identi fied by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Un it or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or el ectric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wh eel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000004675325
NOTE:
• This Procedure is applied only to models with Inte lligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
• Remove and install all control units after disconnecti ng both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″ LOCK ″ position.
• Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS , an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery pow er is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE 1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC ″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of al l control units using CONSULT-III.
