Be careful not to drop connecting r od bearing, and to scratch the surface.
a. Position crankshaft pin corresponding to connecting rod to be removed onto the bottom dead center.
b. Loosen mounting bolts, and remove connecting rod bearing cap.
c. Using a hammer handle (A) or similar tool, push piston and con- necting rod assembly out to the cylinder head side.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the cylinder wall and crankshaft
pin, resulting from an interf erence of the connecting rod big
end.
5. Remove connecting rod bearings from connecting rod and connecting rod bearing cap.
CAUTION:
 Be careful not to drop connecting rod bearing, and to scratch the surface.

f. Tighten connecting rod bolts. (clockwise)
CAUTION:
Always use the angle wrench [SST: KV10112100 (B T8653-A)]. Never make judgment by visual
inspection.
 After tightening connecting rod bolts, c heck that crankshaft rotates smoothly.
 Check the connecting rod side clearance. Refer to EM-115, "
Inspection".
16. Install knock sensors (1).  Install knock sensors in the direction shown in the figure.
 After installing knock sens or, connect harness connector, and
lay it out to front of the engine.
CAUTION:
 Never tighten mounting bolts while holding connector.
 If any impact by dropping is applied to knock sensor,
replace it with new one.
NOTE:
 Check that there is no foreign material on the cylinder block
mating surface and the back surface of knock sensor.
 Check that knock sensor does not interfere with other parts.
17. Install oil filter (for VVEL ladder assembly).
18. Install drive plate.  Install drive plate (4) and reinforcement plate (3) as shown inthe figure.
 When installing drive plate to crankshaft (1), be sure to cor- rectly align crankshaft side dowel pin and drive plate side
dowel pin hole.
CAUTION:
If these are not aligned correct ly, engine runs roughly and
“MIL” illuminates.
 Holding ring gear with the ring gear stopper [SST: KV10119200 (J-49277)].
 Tighten the mounting bolts crosswise over several times.
19. Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly.

CRANKSHAFT END PLAY
 Measure the clearance between thrust bearings and crankshaft arm when crankshaft is moved fully forward or backward with a dial
indicator (A).
 If the measured value exceeds t he limit, replace thrust bearings,
and measure again. If it still exceeds the limit, replace crankshaft
also. : 19.6 N·m (2.0 kg-m, 14.5 ft-lb)

INSTALLATION
Note the following items, and install in the reverse order of removal.
 Temporarily tighten bolts and nuts when installing exhaust pipe assembly. Tighten them to the specifiedtorque when connecting the vehicle rear to the vehicle front.
CAUTION:
 Always replace exhaust tube gasket s with new ones when reassembling.
 If heat insulator is badly deformed, repair or re place it. If deposits such as mud pile up on the heat
insulator, remove them.
 When installing heat insulator avoid large gaps or interference between heat insulator and each
exhaust pipe.
 Remove deposits from the sealing surface of each connection. Connect them securely to avoid
gases leakage.
 Check each part for unusual interference, and then tighten them to the specified torque.
 When installing each moun ting rubber, avoid twisting or unusua l extension in up/down and right/left
directions.
InspectionINFOID:0000000006289697
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
 Check clearance between tail tube and rear bumper is even.
 With engine running, check exhaust tube joints for gas leakage and unusual noises.
 Check to ensure that mounting brackets and mounting rubbers are installed properly and free from undue stress. Improper installation could result in excessive noise and vibration.

PRECAUTION
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006450052
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severi ty 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 AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoper ative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision that would result in air ba g inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
 Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the “SRS AIR BAG”.
 Do not use electrical test equipm ent on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identi fied by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
 When working near the Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the
ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s)
with a hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly
causing serious injury.
 When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service.

The sensor angle of the unloaded vehicle position is the reference value.
Optical sensor Optical sensor converts the outside brightness (lux) to voltage and transmits the opti-
cal sensor signal to BCM.
