FLUID LEAKAGE
• Check transaxle surrounding area (oil seal and plug etc.)for fluidleakage.
• If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts and adjust CVT fluid level. Refer to MA-28, "
CVT FLUID : Adjustment".
CVT FLUID : ReplacementINFOID:0000000012432268
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, "

CVT FLUID : AdjustmentINFOID:0000000012432269
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.
• 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. CVT fluid

WHEELS : AdjustmentINFOID:0000000012432277
BALANCING WHEELS (ADHESIVE WEIGHT TYPE)
Preparation Before Adjustment
Remove inner and outer balance weights from the wheel and tire. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced
adhesive tape from the wheel and tire.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to scratch the wheel and tire during removal.
• After removing double-faced adh esive tape, wipe clean all traces of releasing agent from the wheel
and tire.
Wheel Balance Adjustment
CAUTION:
• DO NOT use center hole cone-type clamping machines to hold the wheel during tire removal/installa-
tion or balancing or damage to the wheel paint, cladding or chrome may result. Use only rim-type or
universal lug-type clamping machines to hold the wheel during servicing.
• If a balancer machine has an adhesive weight mode se tting, select the adhesive weight mode setting and
skip Step 2 below. If a balancer machine only has the clip -on (rim flange) weight mode setting, follow Step 2
to calculate the correct size adhesive weight.
1. Set wheel and tire on balancer machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the balancer machine. Oil capacity
