InspectionEBS00LMS
OIL LEVEL

Before starting the engine make sure the vehicle is parked on a
flat and level surface, then check the oil level. If the engine is
already running, turn it off and allow 10 minutes before check-
ing.

Check that the oil level is within the low (L) and high (H) range
as indicated on the dipstick.

If the engine oil level is out of range, add oil as necessary. Refer
to GI-46, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants" .
OIL APPEARANCE

Check the engine oil for a white milky appearance or excessive contamination.

If the engine oil is milky, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant. Repair the broken
parts.
OIL LEAKAGE
Check for oil leakage around the following areas:

Oil pan

Oil pan drain plug

Oil pressure sensor

Oil filter

Oil cooler

Intake valve timing control cover

Intake valve timing control solenoid valve

Front cover

Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head

Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover

Crankshaft oil seal (front and rear)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
CAUTION:

Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.

Put the selector lever in the Park “P” position.
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
OIL LEVEL" .
2. Remove engine front undercover using power tool.
3. Disconnect the oil pressure sensor harness connector.
4. Remove the oil pressure sensor.

Engine oil capacity (Approximate):
Unit: (US qt, Imp qt)
CAUTION:

The refill capacity depends on the engine oil temperature and drain time. Use these specifica-
tions for reference only.

Always use the oil level gauge to determine when the proper amount of engine oil is in the
engine.
8. Warm up engine and check area around drain plug and oil filter for oil leakage.
9. Stop engine and wait for 10 minutes.
10. Check engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
OIL LEVEL" .
Drain and refill With oil filter change

OIL FILTERPFP:15208
Removal and InstallationEBS00LMU
REMOVAL
1. Remove the engine front undercover using power tool.
2. Remove the oil filter using Tool.WARNING:

The oil filter is provided with a relief valve.
Use Genuine NISSAN oil filter or equivalent.

When removing, prepare a shop cloth to absorb any
engine oil leakage or spillage.

Do not allow engine oil to adhere to the drive belts.

Completely wipe off any engine oil that adheres to the
engine and the vehicle.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to get burned when the engine and engine oil are hot.
INSTALLATION
1. Remove foreign materials adhering to the oil filter installation surface.
2. Apply engine oil to the oil seal circumference of the new oil filter.
3. Screw the oil filter manually until it touches the installation sur- face, then tighten it by 2/3 turn. Or tighten to specification.
4. Inspect the engine for oil leakage. Refer to LU-10, "
INSPEC-
TION AFTER INSTALLATION" .
5. Install the engine front undercover using power tool.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "OIL LEVEL" .
2. Start the engine and check for engine oil leakage.
3. Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.
4. Check the engine oil level and add engine oil as required. Tool number : KV10115801 (J-38956)

CAUTION:
Be careful not to burn yourself, as the engine oil and engine coolant are hot.
REMOVAL
1. Remove engine front undercover using power tool.
2. Disconnect water hoses, pinching hoses near oil cooler to prevent engine coolant from spilling.
CAUTION:
Do not spill engine coolant on the drive belt.
3. Remove oil filter. Refer to LU-10, "
Removal and Installation" .
CAUTION:
Do not spill engine oil on the drive belts.
4. Remove connector bolt, and remove oil cooler.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Oil Cooler
Check oil cooler for cracks. Check oil cooler for clogging by blowing compressed air through engine coolant
inlet. If necessary, replace oil cooler assembly.
Relief Valve
Inspect relief valve for movement, cracks and breaks by pushing the ball. If replacement is necessary, remove
valve by prying it out using a suitable tool. Install a new valve in place by tapping it.
