FUEL TANK
REMOVAL
WARNING:
Follow the “General Precautions” before working on the fuel system. Refer to FL-4, "
General Precau-
tion".
1. Remove the fuel filler cap to release the pressure from inside the fuel tank.
2. Release the fuel pressure from the fuel lines. Refer to EC-487, "
Fuel Pressure Check".
3. Drain the fuel from the fuel tank, if necessary.
a. Position the vehicle so it is level.
b. Check the fuel level on level gauge. If the fuel gauge indicates more than the level as shown (full or almost full), drain the fuel
from the fuel tank until the fuel gauge indicates the level as
shown, or less.
c. Use the following procedure to drain the fuel to the specified level after disconnecting the fuel filler hose from the fuel filler
pipe.
• Insert a suitable hose of less than 15 mm (0.59 in) diameterinto the fuel filler pipe through the fuel filler opening to drain
the fuel from fuel filler pipe.
• Insert a suitable hose into the fuel tank through the fuel filler hose to drain the fuel from the fuel tank.
NOTE:
As a guide, the fuel level reaches the fuel gauge position as shown, or less, when approximately 14
liters (3 3/4 US gal, 3 1/8 Imp gal) of fuel are drained from the fuel tank.
4. Remove the LH rear wheel and tire. Refer to WT-41, "
Adjustment".
5. Remove the four clips and remove the rear fender protector, front.
6. Disconnect the fuel filler hose from the fuel filler pipe and dis- connect the vent hose quick connector.
7. Remove the second row seat and the third row LH seat. Refer to SE-55, "
Removal and Installation" (sec-
ond row), SE-58, "
LH Side Seat" (third row).
8. Disconnect the battery negative terminal. Refer to PG-76, "
Removal and Installation".
9. Remove the second and third row rear seat belt buckles mounted on the floor. Refer to SB-7, "
Removal
and Installation of Second Row Seat Belt", SB-9, "Removal and Installation of Third Row Seat Belt".
10. Remove the LH center pillar trim, the LH rear trim panel, and the LH rear side door kick plate and weather
stripping. Refer to INT-14, "
Removal and Installation".
11. Remove the second row rear center console and base. Refer to IP-21, "
Removal and Installation".
12. Reposition the floor carpet out of the way to access the inspection hole cover, located under the center LH
rear seat.

Front Suspension PartsINFOID:0000000003772269
Check front suspension parts for excessive play, cracks, wear and
other damage.
• Shake each front wheel to check for excessive play.If looseness is noted, inspect wheel bearing end play, then check
ball joint end play. Refer to FA X - 6 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Ser-
vice" and FSU-10, "Inspection".
• Make sure that the cotter pin is inserted (4WD only).
• Retighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
• Check shock absorber for oil leakage and other damage.
• Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint dust cover for cracks and other damage.
Front Wheel AlignmentINFOID:0000000003772270
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specificat ion, inspect and replace any damaged or worn suspension parts before making
any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer to WT-40, "
Inspection" .
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FA X - 6 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service" .
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the rear suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer to FSU-24, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)" .
• Verify the level using Consult-III memory register 1103 and set to 0 ± 10 mm (0 ± 0.39 in) as necessary.
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel
is centered.
• The alignment machine itself should be ca pable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level. Suspension component
