NARROWING-DOWN MALFUNCTIONING PARTS
Line pressure : TM-265, "Line Pressure"
Judgment Possible cause
Idle speed Low for all positions
(“P”, “R”, “N”, “D”, “L”)
Possible causes include malfunctions in the pressure supply system and low oil pump output.
For example:
• Oil pump wear
• Damage of chain and sprocket
• Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking or spring fatigue
• Oil strainer
⇒ oil pump ⇒ pressure regulator valve passage oil leak
• Engine idle speed too low
Only low for a specific
position Possible causes include an oil pressure leak in a passage or device related to the position after
the pressure is distributed by the manual valve.
High Possible causes include a sensor malfunction or malfunction in the line pressure adjustment
function.
For example:
• Accelerator pedal position signal malfunction
• CVT fluid temperature sensor malfunction
• Line pressure solenoid malfunction (sticking in OFF state, filter clog, cut line)
• Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
Stal l s pe ed Line pressure does not
rise higher than the line
pressure for idle.
Possible causes include a sensor malfunction or malfunction in the pressure adjustment func-
tion.
For example:
•TCM malfunction
• Line pressure solenoid malfunction (shorting, sticking in ON state)
• Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
The pressure rises, but
does not enter the
standard position. Possible causes include malfunctions in the pressure supply system and malfunction in the pres-
sure adjustment function.
For example:
• Oil pump wear
• Line pressure solenoid malfunction (sticking, filter clog)
• Pressure regulator valve or plug sticking
Only low for a specific
position Possible causes include an oil pressure leak in a passage or device related to the position after
the pressure is distributed by the manual valve.

FLUID LEAKAGE
• Check transaxle surrounding area (oil seal and plug etc.)for fluid
leakage.
• If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts and adjust
CVT fluid level. Refer to TM-229, "
Adjustment".
ReplacementINFOID:0000000012431173
CAUTION:
• Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-3. Using transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN
CVT Fluid NS-3 will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the (NISSAN new vehicle limited) war-
ranty.
• Always use shop paper. Never use shop cloth.
• Replace a drain plug gasket with new ones at the final stage of the operation when installing.
• Use caution when looking into the drain hole as th ere is a risk of dripping fluid entering the eye.
• After replacement, always perform CVT fluid leakage check.
1. Select “Data Monitor” in “T RANSMISSION” using CONSULT.
2. Select “FLUID TEMP” and confirm t hat the CVT fluid temperature is 40°C (104° F) or less.
3. Check that the selector lever is in the “P ” position, then completely engage the parking brake.
4. Lift up the vehicle.
5. Remove the drain plug and overflow tube and drain the CVT fluid from the oil pan. TM-242, "
Removal and
Installation".
6. Install the charging pipe set (KV311039S0) (A) into the drain hole.
CAUTION:
Tighten the charging pipe by hand.
7. Install the ATF changer hose (B) to the charging pipe. CAUTION:
Press the ATF changer hose all the way onto the charging
pipe until it stops.
8. Fill approximately 3 liter (2-5/8 lmp qt) of the CVT fluid.
9. Remove the ATF changer hose and charging pipe, then install the drain plug.
NOTE:
Perform this work quickly because CVT fluid leaks.
10. Lift down the vehicle.
11. Start the engine.
12. While depressing the brake pedal, shift the selector lever to the entire position from “P” to “L”, and shift it to the “P” position.

CVT FLUID
• During adjustment of the CVT fluid level, check CO
NSULT so that the oil temperature may be main-
tained from 35 to 45 °C (95 to 113 °F).
• Use caution when looking into the drain hole as th ere is a risk of dripping fluid entering the eye.
1. Check that the selector lever is in the “P ” position, then completely engage the parking brake.
2. Start the engine.
3. Adjust the CVT fluid temperature to be approximately 40 °C (104° F).
NOTE:
The CVT fluid is largely affected by temperature. Therefore be sure to use CONSULT and check the
“FLUID TEMP” under “TRANSMISSION” in “Data Monitor” while adjusting.
4. While depressing the brake pedal, shift the selector lever to the entire position from “P” to “L”, and shift it to the “P” position.
NOTE:
Hold the lever at each position for 5 seconds.
5. Lift up the vehicle.
6. Check that there is no CVT fluid leakage.
7. Remove the drain plug. Refer to TM-242, "
Removal and Installation".
8. Install the charging pipe set (KV311039S0) (A) into the drain plug hole.
CAUTION:
Tighten the charging pipe by hand.
9. Install the ATF changer hose (B) to the charging pipe. CAUTION:
Press the ATF changer hose all the way onto the charging
pipe until it stops.
10. Fill approximately 0.5 liter (1/2 lmp qt) of the CVT fluid.
11. Remove the ATF changer hose from the charging pipe, and check that the CVT fluid drains out from the charging pipe. If it
does not drain out, perform charging again.
CAUTION:
Perform this work with the vehicle idling.
12. When the flow of CVT fluid slows to a drip, remove the charging pipe from the oil pan.
13. Tighten the drain plug to the specified torque. Refer to TM-242, "
Removal and Installation".
CAUTION:
Never reuse drain plug gasket.
14. Lift down the vehicle.
15. Stop the engine.

Inspection and AdjustmentINFOID:0000000012431194
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Check oil pan for foreign material.
• If a large amount of worn material is found, clutch plate may be worn.
• If iron powder is found, bearings, gears, or clutch plates may be worn.
• If aluminum powder is found, bushing may be worn, or ch ips or burrs of aluminum casting parts may enter.
Check points where wear is found in all cases.
ADJUSTMENT AFTER INSTALLATION
Erase the CVT fluid deterioration data.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• When replacing control valve, perform "ADDITION AL SERVICE WHEN REPLACING CONTROL VALVE OR
TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY". Refer to TM-127, "

DIFFERENTIAL SIDE OIL SEAL
Since seal lips have a tolerance of
± 0.3 mm ( ± 0.012 in) at maximum due to manufacturing tolerances or
packing conditions, it is necessary to measure t he seal lip height beforehand to clarify the tolerance.
2. As an indicator of the parallelism and insertion depth, cut a masking tape (1) to specified width [add 1 mm (0.04 in) to the
value calculated from the tip of differential side oil seal lip] and
affix to the differential side oil seal.
3. Install the differential side oil seal using a suitable tool according to the guide of the masking tape (1).
CAUTION:
• If differential side oil seal is inserted deeper than the ref-erence value, use a new differe ntial side oil seal and per-
form the steps again.
• Apply ATF to the differential side oil seal lip and around
the oil seal.
NOTE:
A hub cap (Part No. 43234 1HA0A) can be used as substitute for drift. To use a hub cap, be sure to pre-
pare a new one specifically for patting seal.
4. Remove masking tape.
5. Adjust as instructed below to optimize the protrusion size and parallelism. CAUTION:
If differential side oil seal is inserted deeper th an the reference value, use a new differential side
oil seal and perform the steps again.
• Protrusion size (A) CAUTION:
Protrusion must fall within ± 0.5mm (0.020 in) of calculated
size.
• Parallelism at four diagonal points ( ) CAUTION:
The difference among four diagona l points must be within 0.3
mm (0.012 in).
NOTE:
If differential side oil seal is uneven while installing, tilt suitable tool.
6. Check that the protrusion size and parallelism are adequate.

WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns coul
d occur from high pressure
engine coolant escaping from the radiator. Wrap a thick cloth ar ound the cap. Slowly turn it a quarter
turn to allow built-up pressure to escape. Carefully remove the cap by turning it all the way.
CAUTION:
Perform these steps after the coolant temperature has cooled sufficiently.
1. Pull out water hose from CVT oil warmer. Refer to TM-251, "
Removal and Installation".
2. Pull out fluid cooler hose from CVT oil warmer. Refer to TM-254, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Remove CVT oil warmer.
