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.

ASSEMBLY INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
Before inspection and adjustment, drain gear oil.
Total Preload Torque
1. Secure final drive assembly onto an attachment.
2. Remove side flanges.
3. Rotate drive pinion back and forth 2 to 3 times to check for unusual noise and rotation malfunction.
4. Rotate drive pinion at least 20 times to check for smooth opera-
tion of the bearing.
5. Measure total preload with the preload gauge.
NOTE:
Total preload torque = Pinion bearing preload torque + Side
bearing preload torque
If measured value is out of the specification, disassemble it to
check and adjust each part. Adjust the pinion bearing preload and side bearing preload.
Adjust the pinion bearing preload first, then adjust the side bearing preload.
Drive Gear Runout
1. Remove rear cover. Refer to RFD-22, "Differential Assembly" .
2. Fit a dial indicator to the drive gear back face.
3. Rotate the drive gear to measure runout.
If the runout is outside of the repair limit, check drive gear
assembly condition; foreign material may be caught between
drive gear and differential case, or differential case or drive gear
may be deformed, etc.
CAUTION:
Replace drive gear and drive pinion gear as a set.Tool number A: KV38100800 (J-25604-01)
Tool number A: ST3127S000 (J-25765-A)
Total preload torque:
2.84 - 3.75 Nꞏm (0.29 - 0.38 kg-m, 26 - 33 in-lb)
PDIA0766J
When the preload torque is large
On pinion bearings: Replace the collapsible spacer.
On side bearings: Use thinner side bearing adjusting washers by the same amount to
each side. Refer to RFD-38, "
Side Bearing Adjusting Washer" .
When the preload is small
On pinion bearings: Tighten the drive pinion lock nut.
On side bearings: Use thicker side bearing adjusting washers by the same amount to
each side. Refer to RFD-38, "
Side Bearing Adjusting Washer" .
Runout limit: 0.05 mm (0.0020 in)

On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceNES000J6
Make sure the mounting conditions (looseness, back lash) of each component and component conditions
(wear, damage) are normal.
SUSPENSION ARM BALL JOINT AXIAL END PLAY INSPECTION
Measure axial end play by placing and moving up/down with an iron pry bar or something similar between sus-
pension arm and axle.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot.
SHOCK ABSORBER INSPECTION
Check shock absorber for oil leakage, damage and replace if malfunction is detected.
Wheel Alignment InspectionNES000J7
DESCRIPTION
Measure wheel alignment under unladen conditions.
NOTE:
“Unladen conditions” means that fuel, engine coolant, and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and
mats in designated positions.
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
Check the following:
1. Tires for improper air pressure and wear.
2. Road wheels for runout. Refer to WT-6, "
ROAD WHEEL" .
3. Wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to RAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" .
4. Ball joint axial end play of suspension arm. Refer to RSU-5, "
SUSPENSION ARM BALL JOINT AXIAL
END PLAY INSPECTION" .
5. Shock absorber operation.
6. Each mounting point of axle and suspension for looseness and deformation.
7. Each of front lower link, rear lower link, radius rod, rear suspension member, suspension arm and shock
absorber for cracks, deformation, and other damage.
8. Vehicle height (posture).
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
A four-wheel thrust alignment should be performed.
–This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel is
centered.
–The alignment rack itself should be capable of accepting any NISSAN/INFINITI vehicle.
–The rack should be checked to ensure that it is level.
Make sure the machine is properly calibrated.
–Your alignment equipment should be regularly calibrated in order to give correct information.
–Check with the manufacturer of your specific equipment for their recommended Service/Calibration
Schedule.Standard value
