ENGINE OIL LEVEL
NOTE:
Before starting engine, put vehicle horizontally and check the engine oil level. If engine is already started, stop
it and allow 10 minutes before checking.
1. Pull out oil level gauge and wipe it clean.
2. Insert oil level gauge and check the engine oil level is within the
range shown in the figure.
3. If it is out of range, adjust it.
ENGINE OIL APPEARANCE
 Check engine oil for white turbidity or heavy contamination.
 If engine oil becomes turbid and white, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant.
Repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE
Check for engine oil leakage around the following areas:
 Oil pans (lower and upper)
 Oil pan drain plug
 Oil pressure switch
 Oil filter
 Water pump cover
 Oil cooler
 Valve timing control covers (bank 1 and bank 2)
 Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover
 Mating surface between front timing chain case and rear timing chain case
 Mating surface between rear timing chain case and cylinder head
 Mating surface between rear timing chain case and cylinder block
 Mating surface between rear timing chain case and oil pan (upper)
 Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head
 Crankshaft oil seals (front and rear)
 Camshaft position sensor (PHASE)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:
• Be careful not to get burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
 Oil pressure check should be done in “Parking position”.
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "
Inspection".
2. Remove splash guard (RH). Refer to EXT-22, "
FENDER PROTECTOR : Exploded View".

3. Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch (2), and
remove oil pressure switch using deep socket (commercial ser-
vice tool).
CAUTION:
Never drop or shock oil pressure switch.
4. Install the oil pressure gauge [SST: ST25051001 (J25695-1)] (A)
and hose [SST: ST25052000 (J25695-2)] (B).
5. Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
6. Check the engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
NOTE:
When the engine oil temperature is low, the engine oil pressure becomes high.
If difference is extreme, check engine oil passage and oil pump for engine oil leakage.
7. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to oil pressure switch and the mating surface.
b. Apply liquid gasket and tighten oil pressure switch to the specification.
Use Genuine Liquid Gasket or equivalent.
c. After warming up engine, check there is no leakage of engine oil with running engine.
DrainingINFOID:0000000003793122
WARNING:
 Be careful not to get burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
 Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin
contact with used engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as
soon as possible.
1. Warm up the engine, and check for engine oil leakage from engine components. Refer to LU-7, "
Inspec-
tion".
2. Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.
3. Loosen oil filler cap.

4. Remove drain plug (1) and then drain engine oil.
RefillingINFOID:0000000003793123
1. Install drain plug with new washer. Refer to EM-38, "Exploded View".
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new washer.
2. Refill with new engine oil.
Engine oil specification and viscosity: Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
CAUTION:
 When filling engine oil, never pull out oil level gauge.
 The refill capacity depends on the engine oil temperature and drain time. Use these specifica-
tions for reference only.
 Always use oil level gauge to determine the proper amount of engine oil in engine.
3. Warm up the engine and check area around drain plug and oil filter for engine oil leakage.
4. Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.
5. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-7, "

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
General MaintenanceINFOID:0000000003858221
General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform the
checks and inspections themselves or they can have their NISSAN dealers do them for a nominal charge.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.
UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically e.g. each time you check the engine oil or refuel.
Item Reference page
TiresCheck the pressure with a gauge often and always prior to long distance trips.
Adjust the pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear.—
Windshield wiper
bladesCheck for cracks or wear if not functioning correctly. —
Doors and engine
hoodCheck that all doors and the engine hood operate properly. Also make sure that
all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make sure that the secondary
latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for lu-
brication frequently.MA-42
Tire rotationTires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles).WT-3
Wheel alignment and
balanceIf the vehicle should pull to either side while driving on a straight and level road,
or if you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear. there may be a need for wheel
alignment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds,
wheel balancing may be needed.
Item Reference page
LampsMake sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and oth-
er lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check headlamp
aim.—
Warning lamps and
chimesMake sure that all warning lamps and chimes are operating properly. —
Steering wheelCheck that it has the specified play.
Check for changes in the steering condition, such as excessive free play, hard
steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in)—
Seat beltsCheck that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters and
retractors) operate properly and smoothly, and are installed securely. Check the
belt webbing for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.MA-42
Item Reference page
Windshield washer
fluidCheck that there is adequate fluid in the tank. —
Engine coolant levelCheck the coolant level when the engine is cold.MA-13
Engine oil levelCheck the level after parking the vehicle on a level spot and turning off the en-
gine.LU-7
Brake fluid levelMake sure that the brake fluid level is between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines on the
reservoir.MA-37
BatteryCheck the fluid level in each cell. It should be between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines. —

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Periodic MaintenanceINFOID:0000000003858222
The following tables show the normal maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric con-
ditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent mainte-
nance may be required.
Periodic maintenance beyond the last period shown on the tables requires similar maintenance.
ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL MAINTENANCE
(Annual Mileage < 30,000 km/year)
Abbreviations: I = Inspect and correct or replace as necessary, R = Replace,[ ] = At the specified mileage only.
NOTE:
Maintenance items with “ ” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Condi-
tions”.
(1) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
(2) Replace the drive belt if found damaged or if the auto belt tensioner reading reaches the maximum limit.
(3) Use Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminum corrosion within
the engine cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant.
First replace at 90,000 Km (54,000 miles)/60 months, then every 60,000 km (36,000 miles)/48 months. Perform "I" (Checking
the mixture ratio and correcting the mixture ratio if necessary) at the middle of replacement interval.
(4) Fuel filter is maintenance-free. For service procedures, refer to FL section. MAINTENANCE OPERATIONMAINTENANCE INTERVAL
