OIL FILTER
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000005149027
REMOVAL
1. Drain the engine oil. Refer to
LU-9, "Changing Engine Oil".
2. Remove the oil filter using Tool.
WARNING:
• Be careful not to get burned when the engine and engine
oil are hot.
CAUTION:
• The oil filter is provided with a relief valve.
• Use Genuine NISSAN oil filter or equivalent.
• When removing, prepare a s hop cloth to absorb any
engine oil leakage or spillage.
• Do not allow engine oil to adhere to the drive belts.
• Completely wipe off any engine oil that adheres to the engine and the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove foreign materials adhering to the oil filter installation surface.
2. Apply engine oil to the oil seal circumference of the new oil filter.
3. Screw the oil filter manually until it touches the installation sur-
face, then tighten it by 2/3 turn. Or tighten to specification.
4. Refill the engine with new engine oil. Refer to LU-9, "
Changing
Engine Oil".
5. Inspect the engine for oil leakage. Follow the "INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION" procedure.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-8, "Inspection".
2. Start the engine and check for engine oil leakage.
3. Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.
4. Check the engine oil level and add engine oil as required. Tool number : KV10115801 (J-38956)

CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTENANCE
• Shake each wheel to check for excessive play.
• Rotate each wheel to check for abnormal noise.
• Check the axle and suspension nuts and bolts for looseness.
• Check the strut and shock absorber for oil leakage or other damage.
• Check the suspension ball joints for grease leakage and ball joint dust cover for cracks or other damage.

The engine oil pressure gauge indicates whether the engine oil pressure is low or normal.
The oil pressure gauge is controlled by the IPDM E/R. The IPDM E/R reads the ON /OFF signals from the oil
pressure switch and transmits the oil pressure switch signal to the combination meter via BCM with the CAN
communication line. The oil pressure gauge displays a low or normal indication according to the oil pressure
switch signal received via CAN communication.
