PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Introduction of Periodic MaintenanceINFOID:0000000003533860
Two different maintenance schedules are provided, and should be used, depending upon the conditions in
which the vehicle is mainly operated. After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, continue the periodic
maintenance at the same mileage or time intervals, whichever comes first.
Maintenance for Off-road Driving (4WD only)INFOID:0000000003533861
After driving the vehicle off-road through sand, mud, or water; more frequent maintenance may be required for
the following items:
Brake pads and rotors
Brake lines and hoses
Rear final drive oil, transmission fluid, and transfer fluid
Steering linkage
Drive shafts
Engine air cleaner filter
In-cabin microfilters

Abbreviations: R = Replace. I = Inspect. Correct or replace if necessary. [ ]: At the mileage intervals only
Schedule 1Follow Periodic Maintenance Schedule 1 if your driving habits frequently includes
one or more of the following driving conditions:
• Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles (8 km).
• Repeated short trips of less than 10 miles (16 km) with outside temperatures re-
maining below freezing.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
(1) If towing a trailer, or using a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) oil at every 30,000 miles
(48,000 km) or 24 months.
(2) Refer to “Tire rotation” under the “General maintenance” heading earlier in this section.
Schedule 2INFOID:0000000003533863
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Abbreviations: R = Replace. I = Inspect. Correct or replace if necessary. [ ]: At the mileage intervals only
(1) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, inspect every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or 12 months. Replace drive belts if damaged.
(2) Maintenance-free item. For service procedures, go to FL section.
(3) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, replace every 30,000 miles (48,000 km) or 24 months.
(4) If valve noise increases, inspect valve clearance.
* Maintenance items and intervals with “*” are recommended by NISSAN for reliable vehicle operation. The owner need not perform
such maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or manufacturer recall liability. Other maintenance items and intervals are
required.

REAR SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY
• Check with the manufacturer of your specific alignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-
bration Schedule.
THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT: Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual. Refer to FSU-19, "Wheel
Alignment (Unladen*1) *6" .
1. When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.
• The alignment specifications programmed into your alignment machine that operate these indicators
may not be correct.
• This may result in an ERROR.
2. Some newer alignment machines are equipped with an optional “Rolling Compensation” method to “com-
pensate” the sensors (alignment targets or head units). Do NOT use this “Rolling Compensation”
method.
• Use the “Jacking Compensation” method. After installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the
vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.
• See Instructions in the alignment machine you are using for more information.
CAMBER
1. Measure camber of both the right and left wheels with a suitable
alignment gauge and adjust as necessary to specification.
2. If outside of the specified value, adjust the camber using the
adjusting bolt in the front lower link.
CAUTION:
After adjusting the camber then check the toe-in.
NOTE:
Camber changes about 0° 5' with each graduation of the adjust-
ing bolt.
3. Tighten the adjusting bolt nuts to specification.
TOE-IN
1. Bounce the rear of the vehicle up and down two to three times to stabilize the vehicle height. Refer to
FSU-20, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)" .
2. Push the vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).
3. Put a mark on the base line of the tread (rear side) of both of the
tires at the same height as the center of the hub. This will be the
measuring points.
4. Measure the distance “A” (rear side) across from tire to tire.Camber : Refer to FSU-19, "
Wheel Alignment (Unlad-
en*1) *6" .

c. If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install
two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown.
CAUTION:
Do not install one balance weight sheet on top of another.
3. Start wheel balancer again.
4. Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the
wheel balancer indication position (angle).
CAUTION:
Do not install more than two balance weights.
5. Start wheel balancer. Make sure that inner and outer residual
imbalance values are 5 g (0.18 oz) each or below.
• If either residual imbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.18 oz),
repeat installation procedures.
Wheel balance (Maximum allowable imbalance):
RotationINFOID:0000000003532691
NOTE:
Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals. Refer to MA-6
.
1. Rotate the tires on each side from front to back as shown. Do
not include the spare tire when rotating the tires.
CAUTION:
When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.
2. Adjust the tire pressure to specification. Refer to WT-28, "
Tire" .
3. After the tire rotation, retighten the wheel nuts after the vehicle
has been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles), and also after every
wheel and tire have been installed such as after repairing a flat tire.
Maximum allowable imbalanceDynamic (At rim flange) 5 g (0.18 oz) (one side)
