WINDSHIELD GLASS
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
WARNING:
When cutting the glass from the vehicle, always wear safety glasses and heavy gloves to help pre-
vent glass splinters from entering your eyes or cutting your hands.
CAUTION:

When a windshield glass is to be reused, do not use a cutting knife or power cutting tool.

Be careful not to scratch the glass when removing.

Do not set or stand the glass on its edge. Small chips may develop into cracks.
INSTALLATION

Use a genuine Nissan Urethane Adhesive Kit or equivalent and follow the instructions furnished with it.

While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window. This will prevent the glass from being forced
out by passenger room air pressure when a door is closed.

The molding must be installed securely so that it is in position and leaves no gap.

Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive has completely
cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.
WARNING:

Keep heat and open flames away as primers and adhesive are flammable.

The materials contained in the kit are harmful if swallowed, and may irritate skin and eyes. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes.

Use in an open, well ventilated location. Avoid breathing the vapors. They can be harmful if
inhaled. If affected by vapor inhalation, immediately move to an area with fresh air.

Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive has completely cured may affect the perfor-
mance of the windshield in case of an accident.
CAUTION:

Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable term. Shelf life of this product is limited to six
months after the date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or manufacture date
printed on the box.

Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally, they should be stored in a refrigerator.

Do not leave primers or adhesive cartridge unattended with their caps open or off.

The vehicle should not be driven for at least 24 hours or until the urethane adhesive has com-
pletely cured. Curing time varies depending on temperature and humidity. The curing time will
increase under lower temperature and lower humidity.
Repairing Water Leaks for Windshield
Leaks can be repaired without removing and reinstalling glass.
If water is leaking between the urethane adhesive material and body or glass, determine the extent of leakage.
This can be done by applying water to the windshield area while pushing glass outward.
To stop the leak, apply primer (if necessary) and then urethane adhesive to the leak point.

Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive has completely cured may affect the perfor-
mance of the rear window glass in case of an accident.
CAUTION:

Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable term. Shelf life of this product is limited to six
months after the date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or manufacture date
printed on the box.

TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the owner.
In addition look for:
1. Trunk lid dumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
2. Sunvisor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headlining and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the position the seat is in and the load placed on the seat when
the noise is present. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the
noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con-
ditions under which the noise occurs. Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include:
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.
