Balancing WheelsELS0010O
REMOVAL
1. Using a releasing agent, remove the double-faced adhesive taped wheel weight(s) from the wheel.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to scratch the wheel during removal.
After removing double-faced adhesive taped wheel weights, wipe clean any traces of the releas-
ing agent from the wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE:
If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting, select
and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for wheels.
1. Set the wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When the inner and outer imbalance values are shown on the wheel balancer indicator, multiply the outer
imbalance value by 1.6 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight
with a value closest to the calculated value and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the des-
ignated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:
Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.
Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the wheel.Oil capacity and grade : Refer to RFD-11, "

POWER STEERING FLUID
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
POWER STEERING FLUIDPFP:KLF20
Checking Fluid LevelEGS000MN
Check fluid level, referring to the scale on reservoir tank.
Use HOT range for fluid temperatures of 50° – 80°C (122° – 176°F).
Use COLD range for fluid temperatures of 0° – 30°C (32° – 86°F).
CAUTION:
Do not overfill.
Do not reuse any used power steering fluid.
Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent.
Refer to MA-10, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS" .
Checking Fluid LeakageEGS000MO
Check the hydraulic piping lines for improper attachment and for
leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing or deterioration.
1. Run engine until fluid temperature reaches 50° – 80°C (122° –
176°F) in reservoir tank. Keep engine speed idle.
2. Turn steering wheel right-to-left several times.
3. Hold steering wheel at each “lock” position for five seconds to
check fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Do not hold steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 10 seconds. (There is the possibility that oil pump may
be damaged.)
4. If fluid leakage at connections is noticed, then loosen flare nut and then retighten. Do not over tighten con-
nector as this can damage O-ring, washer and connector.
5. If fluid leakage from oil pump is noticed, check oil pump. Refer to PS-26, "
POWER STEERING OIL
PUMP" .
6. Check steering gear boots for accumulation of fluid indicating a leak from the steering gear.
Air Bleeding Hydraulic SystemEG S0 0 0MP
Incomplete air bleeding causes the following. When this happens, bleed air again.
Air bubbles in reservoir tank.
Clicking noise in oil pump.
Excessive buzzing in oil pump.
NOTE:
When vehicle is stationary or while steering wheel is being turned slowly, some noise may be heard from
oil pump or gear. This noise is normal and does not affect any system.
1. Stop engine, and then turn steering wheel fully to right and left several times.
CAUTION:
Do not allow steering fluid reservoir tank to go below the MIN level line. Check tank frequently and
add fluid as needed.
2. Run engine at idle speed. Turn steering wheel fully right and then fully left, hold for about three seconds.
Then check for fluid leakage.
3. Repeat step 2 several times at about three second intervals.
CAUTION:
Do not hold steering wheel in the locked position for more than 10 seconds. (There is the possibil-
ity that oil pump may be damaged.)
4. Check for air bubbles or cloudy fluid.
5. If air bubbles or cloudiness still exists, stop engine, perform steps 2 and 3 again until air bubbles or cloud-
iness does not exist.
6. Stop engine, check fluid level.

7. Remove steering outer socket from steering knuckle using Tool.
Be careful not to damage ball joint boot.
CAUTION:
Temporarily tighten mounting nut to prevent damage to
threads and to prevent Tool from coming off.
8. On 2WD models, remove stabilizer bar mounting bolts and reposition stabilizer bar. Refer to FSU-12,
"STABILIZER BAR" .
9. Remove oil piping (high pressure side and low pressure side)
from steering gear assembly, then drain fluid from piping.
10. Remove lower joint mounting bolt of lower shaft.
11. Remove mounting bolts and nuts of steering gear assembly
using power tool, and then remove steering gear assembly from
vehicle.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
After removing/installing or replacing steering components, check wheel alignment. Refer to FSU-6,
"Front Wheel Alignment" .
After adjusting wheel alignment, adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-62,
"Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral Position" . Tool number : HT72520000 (J-25730-A)

With steering wheel in straight ahead position, make sure slit of
lower joint fits with the projection on rear cover cap, while check-
ing that mark on steering gear assembly aligns with mark on
rear cover cap
After installation, bleed the air from the steering hydraulic system. Refer to PS-6, "Air Bleeding Hydraulic
System" .
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check if steering wheel turns smoothly when it is turned several times fully to the left and right lock positions.

6. After tightening end cover assembly, caulk cylinder at one point
as shown using a punch. This will prevent end cover from get-
ting loose.
7. Install sub-gear assembly to gear housing assembly.
CAUTION:
Oil seal may be damaged if sub-gear assembly is not installed correctly.
8. Apply Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent to O-ring. Refer to MA-10, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND
LUBRICANTS" . Then install O-ring to rear cover.
NOTE:
Do not reuse O-ring.
9. Install rear cover to gear housing assembly using Tool.
10. Make sure projection on rear cover cap aligns with mark on gear housing assembly.
11. Apply thread locking sealant (Refer to GI-45, "
RECOMMENDED
CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND SEALANTS" ) to the thread of
the adjusting screw. Then set adjusting screw height from gear
housing assembly. The adjusting screw height is the same as it
was measured previously.
12. Rotate pinion ten times through entire rack range to seat gears and to check operation.
13. With steering gear in neutral position, measure pinion rotating
torque using Tool from within –180° to +180°, while applying and
holding maximum torque to pinion gear.
14. After loosening adjusting screw once, tighten it again with torque of 5.4 N·m (0.55 kg-m, 48 in-lb). Then
loosen it within 20° – 40°.

POWER STEERING OIL PUMPPFP:49110
On-Vehicle Inspection and ServiceEGS000MW
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 InstallationEG S0 0 0MX
