4. Crank the engine, and then make sure that engine oil comes out
from camshaft bracket (No. 1) oil hole. End crank after checking.
WARNING:
Be careful not to touch rotating parts (drive belts, idler pul-
ley, and crankshaft pulley, etc.).
CAUTION:
Engine oil may squirt from in take valve timing control sole-
noid valve installation hole during cranking. Use a shop
cloth to prevent the engine components and the vehicle. Do
not allow engine oil to get on rubber components such as
drive belt or engine mount insulators. Immediately wipe off
any splashed engine oil.
 Clean oil groove between oil strainer and intake valve timing control solenoid valve if engine oil does not come out from camshaft bracket (No. 1) oil hole. Refer to LU-4, "
Lubrication Circuit".
5. Remove components between intake valve timing control solenoid valve and camshaft sprocket (INT), and then check each oil groove for clogging.
 Clean oil groove if necessary. Refer to LU-4, "
Lubrication Circuit".
6. After inspection, install removed parts.
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for chec king fluids leak, lubricates leak.
 Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-9, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
 Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
- Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak-
age at connection points.
- Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.
 Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.
NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal/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 leak age of fuel, or any oil/fluids including engine oil and
engine coolant.
 Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.
 After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the specified level, if necessary.
Summary of the inspection items:
* Transmission/transaxle/CVT fluid. power steering fluid, brake fluid, etc.
Valve ClearanceINFOID:0000000001325733

PRECAUTIONS
Precaution Necessary for Steering W
heel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000001524895
NOTE:
 This Procedure is applied only to models with In telligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM - NATS).
 Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the ″LOCK ″ position.
 Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NVIS /IVIS, an electrically controlled steering lock
mechanism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery pow er is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC ″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Drain Engine Coolant and Engine OilINFOID:0000000001325752
Drain engine coolant and engine oil when engine is cooled.
Precaution for Disconnecting Fuel PipingINFOID:0000000001325753
 Before starting work, make sure no fire or spark producing items are in the work area.
 Release fuel pressure before disconnecting and disassembly.
 After disconnecting pipes, plug openings to stop fuel leakage.
Precaution for Removal and DisassemblyINFOID:0000000001325754
 When instructed to use SST, use specified tools. Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or unin-
structed operations.
 Exercise maximum care to avoid damage to mating or sliding surfaces.
 Cover openings of engine system with tape or the equival ent, if necessary, to seal out foreign materials.
 Mark and arrange disassembly parts in an organi zed way for easy troubleshooting and assembly.
 When loosening nuts and bolts, as a basic rule, star t with the one furthest outside, then the one diagonally
opposite, and so on. If the order of loosening is specified, do exactly as specified. Power tools may be used
where noted in the step.
Precaution for Inspection, Repair and ReplacementINFOID:0000000001325755
Before repairing or replacing, thoroughly inspect parts. Inspect new replacement parts in the same way, and
replace if necessary.

PRECAUTIONS
 To prevent serious burns:Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
 Dispose of or recycle drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in an appropriate manner.
 Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically.
Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel spray
and possibly a fire.
 Clean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent prior to inspection or assembly.
 Replace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers, cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new ones.
 Replace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and needle bearings as a set.
 Arrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their assembled locations and sequence.
 Do not touch the terminals of electrical com ponents which use microcomputers (such as ECM).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
 After disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, atta ch a tag to indicate the proper connection.
 Use only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
 Use approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents when required.
 Use hand tools, power tools (disassembly only) and recommended special tools where specified for safe and efficient service repairs.
 When repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust systems,
check all affected lines for leaks.
 Before servicing the vehicle: Protect fenders, upholstery and carpeting with appropriate covers.
Take caution that keys, buckles or buttons do not scratch paint.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic tro uble codes, do not carelessly disconnect the harness
connectors which are related to the engine cont rol system and TCM (transmission control module)
system. The connectors should be disconnected on ly when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.
Precaution for Three Way CatalystINFOID:0000000001325655
If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst , the catalyst temperature will be excessively high. To
prevent this, follow the instructions.
 Use unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously damage the three way catalyst.
 When checking for ignition spark or measuring engine compression, make tests quickly and only when nec- essary.
 Do not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the engine may misfire, causing damage to the
catalyst.
