15. Measure pinion rotating torque using Tool, then confirm whether
the reading is within the specified value. If the reading is not
within the specified value, readjust screw angle with adjusting
screw. If the reading is still not within the specified value or the
rotating torque of adjusting screw is less than 5 N·m (0.51 kg-m,
44 in-lb), replace the steering gear assembly.
16. Turn pinion to the full left lock position with inner socket to gear housing assembly.
17. Mount dial gauge to rack as shown. Measure vertical movement
of rack when pinion is turned counterclockwise with torque of
19.6 N·m (2.0 kg-m, 14 ft-lb). Check if reading is within the spec-
ified value. If reading is outside of the specification, readjust
screw angle with adjusting screw. If reading is still outside of
specification, or if the rotating torque of adjusting screw is less
than 5 N·m (0.51 kg-m, 44 in-lb), replace the steering gear
assembly.
18. Install large-diameter side of boot to gear housing assembly.
19. Install small-diameter side of boot to the mounting groove of
inner socket boot.
20. Install boot clamp to the small-diameter side of boot.Pinion rotating torque:
Around neutral position (within ±100°)
Average “A”:
0.8 − 2.0 N·m (0.09 − 0.20 kg-m, 7 − 17 in-lb)

On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceEGS000UJ
CHECKING RELIEF OIL PRESSURE
CAUTION:
Before starting work, confirm belt tension is proper.
1. Connect Tool between oil pump discharge connector and high
pressure hose and then bleed air from the hydraulic circuit.
2. Start engine. Allow engine to run until tank temperature reaches 50 – 80°C (122 – 176°F).
CAUTION:

Warm up engine with shut-off valve fully opened. If engine is started with shut-off valve closed,
fluid pressure in power steering pump increases to maximum. This will raise fluid temperature
excessively.

Be careful not to contact hose with belt when engine is started.
3. With engine at idle, close shut-off valve and read the relief oil pressure.
CAUTION:
Do not close shut-off valve of pressure gauge for more than 10 seconds.
4. After measurement, open shut-off valve slowly.

If relief oil pressure is outside the specification, disassemble and repair oil pump. Refer to PS-17, "Dis-
assembly and Assembly" .
5. After inspection, disconnect oil pressure gauge and oil pressure gauge adapter from hydraulic circuit, con-
nect oil pump discharge connector and high pressure hose. Add fluid and bleed air from hydraulic circuit
thoroughly. Refer to PS-6, "
Air Bleeding Hydraulic System" .
Removal and InstallationEGS000UK
REMOVAL
1. Drain power steering fluid from reservoir tank.
2. Remove engine room cover. Refer to EM-11, "

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EIS004VI
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WAR NIN G:

To 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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions EIS004VJ

Disconnect both battery cables in advance.

Never tamper with or force air bag lid open, as this may adversely affect air bag performance.

Be careful not to scratch pad and other parts.

When removing or disassembling any part, be careful not to damage or deform it. Protect parts which may
get in the way with cloth.

When removing parts with a screwdriver or other tool, protect parts by wrapping them with vinyl or tape.

Keep removed parts protected with cloth.

If a clip is deformed or damaged, replace it.

If an unreusable part is removed, replace it with a new one.

Tighten bolts and nuts firmly to the specified torque.

After re-assembly has been completed, make sure each part functions correctly.

Remove stains in the following way.
Water-soluble stains:
Dip a soft cloth in warm water, and then squeeze it tightly. After wiping the stain, wipe with a soft dry cloth.
Oil stain:
Dissolve a synthetic detergent in warm water (density of 2 to 3% or less), dip the cloth, then clean off the stain
with the cloth. Next, dip the cloth in fresh water and squeeze it tightly. Then clean off the detergent completely.
Then wipe the area with a soft dry cloth.

Do not use any organic solvent, such as thinner or benzine.

Fitting AdjustmentEIS004W5
GAP ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
If any gap or height difference between glass lid and roof panel is found, check glass lid fit and adjust as fol-
lows:
1. Open sunshade assembly.
2. Loosen glass lid securing screws (2 each on left and right sides), then tilt glass lid down.
3. Manually adjust glass lid from outside of vehicle so it resembles "A-A" as shown in the figure.
4. After adjusting glass lid tilt glass lid up and tighten screws.
5. Tilt glass lid up and down several times to check that it moves smoothly.
HEIGHT DIFFERENCE ADJUSTMENT
1. Remove headlining. Refer to EI-38, "HEADLINING" .
2. Loosen sunroof frame assembly nuts and sunroof bracket bolts.
3. Add shims until gap is within specification "A-A" as shown.
NOTE:
Temporarily snug nuts and bolts to prevent movement between each adjustment.
4. Tilt glass lid assembly up and down several times to check that it moves and seals properly.
5. Tighten sunroof frame assembly nuts and sunroof bracket bolts.
NOTE:
First tighten left front then right rear sunroof frame assembly nuts to prevent uneven torque while tighten-
ing sunroof bracket bolts.
6. Install headlining. Refer to EI-38, "
HEADLINING" .
Removal and InstallationEIS008ZM

After any adjustment, check sunroof operation and glass lid alignment.

Handle glass lid with care so not to cause damage.

For easier installation, mark each point before removal.
