Removal and Installation
INFOID:0000000012432149
WARNING:
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high-pressure
engine coolant escaping from the radi ator. Wrap a thick cloth around the radiator cap. Slowly turn it a
quarter of a turn to release built-up pressure. Carefu lly remove radiator cap by turning it all the way.
NOTE:
When removing components such as hoses, tubes/lines, etc. , cap or plug openings to prevent fluid from spill-
ing.
REMOVAL
1. Drain engine coolant. Refer to CO-8, "Draining Engine Coolant".
CAUTION:
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
• Do not spill engine coolant on drive belt.
2. Remove air ducts and air cleaner assembly. Refer to EM-26, "
Removal and Installation".
3. Disconnect radiator hose (upper). Refer to CO-13, "
Exploded View".
4. Disconnect harness connector from engine coolant temperature sensor.
5. Disconnect harness connector from cylinder block heater (Canada only).
6. Disconnect water hoses and heater hoses from water outlet.
7. Remove water outlet.
8. Remove engine coolant temperature sens or from water outlet, if necessary.
9. Remove cylinder block heater from water outlet, if necessary (Canada only).
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels, including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leaks.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leaks
at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leaks at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leaks of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids, including
engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels, including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec- ified level, if necessary.

PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint Syst
em (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000012432194
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 severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of
this Service Manual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, 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 unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c 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 three minutes before performing any service.
Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000012432195
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
• After removing the bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface and remove the liquid gasket using Tool (A).
• In areas where the cutter is difficult to use, use a plastic hammer to lightly tap (1) the cutter where the liquid gasket is applied. Use a
plastic hammer to slide (2) the cutter by tapping on the side.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the mating surfaces.
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Using suitable tool (A), remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.
• Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the liquidgasket application surface, mounting bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Wipe the liquid gasket application surface and the mating sur- face with white gasoline (lighting and heating use) to remove
adhering moisture, grease and foreign materials.Tool number (A) : KV10111100 (J-37228)

ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
Before starting engine, position the vehicle so that it
is level and check the engine oil level. If engine is already
started, stop it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and check that the engine oil level is within the range (A) as shown.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE
• Check engine oil for white milky appearance or excessive contamination.
• If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant. Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKS
Check for engine oil leaks around the following areas:
• Oil pan (upper and lower)
• Oil pan drain plug
• Oil pressure sensor
• Oil filter
• Oil cooler
• Oil level sensor
• Engine oil temperature sensor
• Intake valve timing control solenoid valve
• Exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve
• Mating surface between front cover and rocker cover
• Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head
• Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover
• Crankshaft oil seals (front and rear)
• Front cover
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yoursel f, as engine oil may be hot.
• When checking engine oil pressure, sh ift selector should be in the "P" (Park) or "N" (Neutral) posi-
tion, and apply parking brake securely.
1. Check engine oil level.

2. Disconnect harness connector at
oil pressure sensor. Remove
oil pressure sensor using suitable tool and install suitable tools
(A/B).
CAUTION:
Do not drop or shock oil pressure sensor.
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Check engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load. NOTE:
• When engine oil temperature is low, engine oil pressure becomes high.
• If difference is extreme, check oil passage and oil pump for engine oil leaks.
5. After the inspections, install oil pressure sensor as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to oil pressure sensor and engine.
b. Apply liquid gasket and tighten oil pressure sensor to specification. Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent. Refer to GI-22, "
Recommended Chemical Products and
Sealants".
6. Check engine oil level.
7. After warming up engine, check that ther e is no engine oil leaks with the running engine.
DrainingINFOID:0000000012432201
WARNING:
• Be careful not to get burned, as engine oil may be hot.
• Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause ski n cancer. Try to avoid direct skin
contact with used engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as
soon as possible.
1. Warm up the engine, park the vehicle on a level surface and check for engine oil leaks. Refer to LU-7,
"Inspection".
2. Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.
3. Loosen oil filler cap.
4. Remove drain plug and then drain engine oil.
RefillingINFOID:0000000012432202
1. Install drain plug with new copper sealing washer. Refer to EM-34, "Exploded View".
CAUTION:
• Be sure to clean drain plug.
• Do not reuse copper sealing washer.
2. Refill with new engine oil.
CAUTION:
• The refill capacity depends on the engine oi l temperature and drain time. Use these specifica-
tions for reference only.
• Always use oil level gauge to determine the pr oper amount of engine oil in the engine.
