3. Insert the extension adapter hose of a can of Transmission
Cooler Cleaner (Nissan P/N 999MP-AM006) into the cooler out-
let hose.
CAUTION:
• Wear safety glasses and rubber gloves when spraying the
Transmission Cooler Cleaner.
• Spray cooler cleaner only with adequate ventilation.
• Avoid contact with eyes and skin.
• Do not breath vapors or spray mist.
4. Hold the hose and can as high as possible and spray Transmis-
sion Cooler Cleaner in a continuous stream into the cooler outlet
hose until fluid flows out of the cooler inlet hose for 5 seconds.
5. Tie a common white, basket-type coffee filter to the end of the
cooler inlet hose.
6. Insert the tip of an air gun into the end of the cooler outlet hose.
7. Wrap a shop rag around the air gun tip and end of cooler outlet
hose.
8. Blow compressed air regulated to 5 - 9 kg/cm
2 (70 - 130 psi)
through the cooler outlet hose to force any remaining A/T fluid
into the coffee filter.
9. Remove the coffee filter from the end of the cooler inlet hose.
10. Perform the A/T fluid cooler inspection procedure.
A/T FLUID COOLER INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. Inspect the coffee filter for debris.
a. If small metal debris less than 1mm (0.040 in) in size or metal
powder is found in the coffee filter, this is normal. If normal
debris is found, the A/T fluid cooler/radiator can be re-used and
the procedure is ended.

IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
Removal and InstallationINFOID:0000000003533277
FUNCTION
The air inside the passenger compartment is filtered by the in-cabin
microfilters when the heater or A/C controls are set on either the
recirculation or fresh mode. The two in-cabin microfilters are located
in the front heater and cooling unit assembly. The rear heater and
cooling unit assembly only draws in air from the passenger compart-
ment to recirculate into the passenger compartment, so the rear
heater and cooling unit assembly is not equipped with in-cabin
microfilters.
REPLACEMENT TIMING
Replacement of the two in-cabin microfilters is recommended on a regular interval depending on the driving
conditions. Refer to MA-6
. It may also be necessary to replace the tw o in-cabin microfilters as part of a compo-
nent replacement if the in-cabin microfilters are damaged.
REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE
1. Remove the two lower glove box hinge pins to remove the glove box from the instrument panel and let it hang from the cord.
2. Remove the screw and remove the in-cabin microfilter cover.
3. Remove the in-cabin microfilters from the front heater and cool- ing unit assembly housing.
4. Insert the first new in-cabin micr ofilter into the front heater and
cooling unit assembly housing and slide it over to the right.
Insert the second new in-cabin mi crofilter into the front heater
and cooling unit assembly housing.
NOTE:
The in-cabin microfilters are marked with air flow arrows. The
end of the microfilter with the arro w should face the rear of the
vehicle. The arrows should point downward.

4. Install Fuel Pressure Adapter J-44321-6 and Fuel Pressure
Gauge (from kit J-44321) as shown in figure.
• Do not distort or bend fuel rail tube when installing fuel pres-
sure gauge adapter.
• When reconnecting fuel hose, check the original fuel hose for
damage and abnormality.
5. Turn ignition switch ON (reactivate fuel pump), and check for
fuel leakage.
6. Start engine and check for fuel leakage.
7. Read the indication of fuel pressure gauge.
• During fuel pressure check, check for fuel leakage from fuel
connection every 3 minutes.
8. If result is unsatisfactory, go to next step.
9. Check the following.
• Fuel hoses and fuel tubes for clogging
• Fuel filter for clogging
• Fuel pump
• Fuel pressure regulator for clogging
If OK, replace fuel pressure regulator.
