Removal and InstallationNBFE0005CAUTION:
IAlways replace exhaust gaskets with new ones when reassembling.
IWith engine running, check all tube connections for exhaust gas leaks, and entire system for
unusual noises.
ICheck to ensure that mounting brackets and mounting insulators are installed properly and free
from undue stress. Improper installation could result in excessive noise or vibration.
IDiscard any heated oxygen sensor 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.
IBefore installing new oxygen sensor, clean exhaust system threads using Oxygen Sensor Thread
Cleaner tool J-43897-18 of J-43897-12 and approved anti-seize lubricant.
IDo not overtorque the oxygen sensor. Doing so may cause damage to the oxygen sensor, result-
ing in the MIL coming on.

PrecautionsNBGI0001Observe the following precautions to ensure safe and proper
servicing. These precautions are not described in each indi-
vidual section.
SGI646
PRECAUTIONS FOR SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS) ªAIR BAGº AND ªSEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONERº
NBGI0001S01The Supplemental Restraint System such as ªAIR BAGº and ªSEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONERº used along with a seat belt, helps to
reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passen-
ger for certain types of collision. The SRS system composition
which is available to INFINITI QX4 is as follows:
IFor a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag
module (located in the center of the steering wheel), front pas-
senger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on
passenger side), seat belt pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor
unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
IFor a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of side air bag
module (located in the outer side of front seat), satellite sensor,
diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a
frontal collision), wiring harness, warning lamp (one of compo-
nents of air bags for a frontal collision).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in
theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
WARNING:
ITo avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could
increase the risk of personal injury or death in the event
of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all
maintenance must be performed by an authorized INFINITI
dealer.
IImproper maintenance, including incorrect removal and
installation of the SRS, can lead to personal injury caused
by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of
Spiral Cable and Air Bag Module, see the RS section.
IDo not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related
to the SRS unless instructed to in this Service Manual.
Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow
insulation tape either just before the harness connectors
or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
PRECAUTIONS FOR IVIS (INFINITI VEHICLE
IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM Ð NATS)
NBGI0001S08IVIS (NATS) will immobilize the engine if someone tries to start it
without the registered key of IVIS (NATS).
Both of the originally supplied ignition key IDs have been IVIS
(NATS) registered.

IClean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.
IReplace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers,
cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new ones.
IReplace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and
needle bearings as a set.
IArrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their
assembled locations and sequence.
IDo not touch the terminals of electrical components which use
microcomputers (such as ECMs).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
IAfter disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indi-
cate the proper connection.
IUse only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
IUse approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents
when required.
IUse tools and recommended special tools where specified for
safe and efficient service repairs.
IWhen repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust
systems, check all affected lines for leaks.
IDispose of drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in
an appropriate manner.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic trouble codes, do
not carelessly disconnect the harness connectors which are
related to the engine control system and TCM (Transmission
Control Module) system. The connectors should be discon-
nected only when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.
SGI787
PRECAUTIONS FOR MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION
SYSTEM OR ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
NBGI0001S03IBefore connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for
the multiport fuel injection system or ECM (Engine Control
Module):
Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.
IBefore disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to
injectors, be sure to release fuel pressure.
IBe careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air
flow sensor.
PRECAUTIONS FOR THREE WAY CATALYSTNBGI0001S04If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst, the cata-
lyst temperature will be excessively high. To prevent this, follow the
instructions below:
IUse unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously
damage the three way catalyst.
IWhen checking for ignition spark or measuring engine
compression, make tests quickly and only when necessary.
IDo not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the
engine may misfire causing damage to the catalyst.
