ENGINE ASSEMBLY

6. Remove front suspension member mounting nuts and bolts. Refer to FSU-5, "FRONT SUSPENSION
ASSEMBLY" .
7. Carefully lower engine, transaxle and front suspension member assembly. When performing work,
observe the following caution.
CAUTION:

Confirm there is no interference with vehicle.

Make sure that all connection points have been disconnected.

Keep in mind the center of vehicle gravity changes. If necessary, use jack(s) to support vehicle
at rear jacking point(s) to prevent it from falling it off the lift.
Separation Work
1. Remove power steering oil pump, power steering piping and power steering bracket from engine and tran-
saxle assembly. Refer to PS-39, "
HYDRAULIC LINE" .
2. Remove starter motor. Refer to SC-14, "
STARTING SYSTEM" .
3. Disconnect harness connector of engine mounting insulators (front and rear).
4. Remove engine mounting (front) and engine mounting (rear) through-bolts.
5. Lift with hoist and separate engine and transaxle assembly from front suspension member.
CAUTION:
Before and during this lifting, always make sure that any harnesses are not connected.
6. Remove each engine mounting insulator and each engine mounting bracket from engine, transaxle and
front suspension member.
7. Separate engine and transaxle. Refer to AT- 2 4 1 , "
TRANSAXLE ASSEMBLY" (A/T), CVT-193, "TRAN-
SAXLE ASSEMBLY" (CVT).
INSTALLATION
Note the following, and install in the reverse order of removal.

Do not allow engine mounting insulator to be damage and careful no engine oil gets on it.

For a path with a specified installation orientation, refer to component figure in EM-223, "Removal and
Installation" .

Make sure all engine mounting insulators are seated properly, then tighten nuts and bolts.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Inspection for Leaks
The following are procedures for checking fluids leak, lubricates leak and exhaust gases leak.

Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-14, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
–Turn ignition switch “ON” (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel
leakage at connection points.
–Start engine. With engine speed increased, check again for fuel leakage at connection points.

Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration.

Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gases, or any oil/fluids
including engine oil and engine coolant.

Bleed air from lines and hoses of applicable lines, such as in cooling system.

After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to the
specified level, if necessary.

CONSULT-II CHECKING SYSTEM

Checking Equipment BAS0007N
When ordering the following equipment, contact your NISSAN/INFINITI distributor.
CAUTION:

Previous CONSULT-II “I” and “Y” DLC-I and DLC-II cables should NOT be used anymore because
their DDL connector pins can be damaged during cable swapping.

If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.

If CONSULT-II CONVERTER is not connected with CONSULT-II, vehicle occur the “FAIL SAFE
MODE” which is “LIGHT UP the HEAD LIGHT” and/or “COOLING FAN ROTATING” when CON-
SULT-II is started.
NOTE:

The CONSULT-II must be used in conjunction with a program card.
CONSULT-II does not require loading (Initialization) procedure.

Be sure the CONSULT-II is turned off before installing or removing a program card.
CONSULT-II Start ProcedureBAS0007O
NOTE:
Turning ignition switch off when performing CAN diagnosis could cause CAN memory to be erased.
1. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to the
data link connector.
2. If necessary, turn on the ignition switch.
3. Touch “START(NISSAN BASED VHCL)” or System Shortcut key
(ex: ENGINE) on the screen.
