CAUTION:

Handle it carefully and avoid impacts.

Before installing a new A/F ratio sensor, clean the
exhaust tube threads using suitable tool and approved
anti-seize lubricant.

Do not over-tighten the A/F ratio sensor. Doing so may
damage the A/F ratio sensor, resulting in the MIL coming
on.

REMOVAL
CAUTION:

Be sure to use genuine NISSAN exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed
for heat resistance, corrosion resistance and shape.

Perform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled down because the system will be hot
just after the engine stops.

Be careful not to cut your hand on heat insulator edge.
1. Disconnect harness connector of heated oxygen sensor 2.

Using Tool, remove heated oxygen sensor 2.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage heated oxygen sensor 2.
a.2. Disconnect each joint and mounting rubber.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:

Always replace exhaust gaskets and seal bearings with new ones when installing.

Discard any heated oxygen sensor 2 which has been dropped from a height of more than 0.5 m
(19.7 in) onto a hard surface such as a concrete floor; use a new one.

Before installing a new heated oxygen sensor 2, clean exhaust system threads using the heated
oxygen sensor thread cleaner and apply anti-seize lubricant (commercial service tool).

Do not over tighten heated oxygen sensor 2. Doing so may cause damage to the heated oxygen
sensor 2, resulting in the “MIL” coming on.

Remove deposits from the sealing surface of each connection. Connect them securely to avoid
exhaust leakage.

Temporarily tighten nuts on the exhaust manifold side and bolts on the vehicle side. Check each
part for unusual interference, and then tighten them to the specified torque.

When installing each mounting rubber, avoid twisting or unusual extension in up/down and right/
left directions.
Exhaust Manifold to Exhaust Front Tube
1. Securely insert seal bearing (2) into exhaust manifold (1) side in
the direction shown.

Exhaust front tube (5)
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage seal bearing surface when install-
ing.
2. Install spring (3), tighten nut (4).

Be careful that the stud bolt nut does not interfere with the
flanged area ( ).

Make sure the spring (3) sits properly on the flange surface by
align it to the locator dimples.Tool number : KV10114400 (J-38365)PBIC3797E

damage to threads and to prevent the ball joint remover or
suitable tool from suddenly coming off.
7. Remove transverse link ball joint nut and bolt. Then, remove transverse link from steering knuckle.
8. Remove cotter pin, then loosen hub lock nut using power tool.
CAUTION:
Temporarily leave the hub lock nut installed to prevent damage to threads.
9. Separate the drive shaft from the wheel hub and bearing assem-
bly by lightly tapping the end of the drive shaft using a hammer
or suitable tool, and then remove hub lock nut.
NOTE:
Use a suitable puller if wheel hub and bearing assembly and
drive shaft cannot be separated after performing the above pro-
cedure.
10. Remove the drive shaft from the wheel hub and bearing assem-
bly and support the drive shaft.
CAUTION:

Do not apply an excessive angle to drive shaft joint when
removing from the wheel hub and bearing assembly,

Do not excessively extend slide joint.

Do not allow drive shaft to hang down. Support the entire drive shaft.
11. Remove wheel hub and bearing assembly bolts, and then remove splash guard and wheel hub and bear-
ing assembly from steering knuckle.
