CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTENANCE

Changing CVT FluidBLS0009I
1. Warm up CVT fluid by driving the vehicle for 10 minutes.

: Vehicle front

Radiator (2)

CVT fluid cooler hose [inlet side (3)]

Transaxle assembly (4)
2. Drain CVT fluid from CVT fluid cooler hose [outlet side (1)] and
refill with new CVT fluid at CVT fluid charging pipe with the
engine running at idle speed.
3. Refill until new CVT fluid comes out from CVT fluid cooler hose
[outlet side (1)].
About 30 to 50% extra fluid will be required for this procedure.
CAUTION:

Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2. Do not mix with other fluid.

Using CVT fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2 will deteriorate in driveability and
CVT durability, and may damage the CVT, which is not covered by the warranty.

When filling CVT fluid, take care not to scatter heat generating parts such as exhaust.

Delete CVT fluid deterioration date with CONSULT-II after changing CVT fluid. Refer to CVT-46,
"Check CVT Fluid Deterioration Date" .
4. Check fluid leakage, fluid level and condition.
Balancing Wheels (Bonding Weight Type)BLS0005W
REMOVAL
1. Remove inner and outer balance weights from the road wheel.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.
2. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced adhesive tape from the road wheel.
CAUTION:

Be careful not to scratch the road wheel during removal.

After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean traces of releasing agent from the road
wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE ADJUSTMENT

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 road wheels.
1. Set road wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer unbalance values are shown on the wheel balancer indicator, multiply outer unbal-
ance value by 5/3 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight with
a value closest to the calculated value above and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the
designated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:

Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.CVT fluid:
