REAR PROPELLER SHAFT

REAR PROPELLER SHAFT : Inspection

INFOID:0000000003671631

NOISE

• Check the propeller shaft tube surface for dents or cracks. If damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.
• If center bearing is noisy or damaged, replace propeller shaft assembly.

VIBRATION

If vibration is present at high speed, inspect propeller shaft runout first.
1.

With a dial indicator, measure propeller shaft runout at runout
measuring points by rotating final drive companion flange with
hands.

2.

If runout still exceeds specifications, separate propeller shaft at
final drive companion flange or transfer companion flange; then
rotate companion flange 90, 180, 270 degrees and install pro-
peller shaft.

3.

Check runout again. If runout still exceeds specifications, replace propeller shaft assembly.

4.

Check the vibration by driving vehicle.

RUNOUT MEASURING POINT

Propeller shaft runout measuring point (Point “ ”).

REAR DIFFERENTIAL GEAR OIL

REAR DIFFERENTIAL GEAR OIL : Inspection

INFOID:0000000004292113

OIL LEAKAGE

Check that oil is not leaking from final drive assembly or around it.

OIL LEVEL

• Remove filler plug (1) and check oil level from filler plug mounting

hole as shown in the figure.

CAUTION:

Never start engine while checking oil level.

• Set a new gasket on filler plug and install it on final drive assembly.

Refer to 

DLN-101, "Exploded View"

REAR DIFFERENTIAL GEAR OIL : Draining

INFOID:0000000004292114

1.

Stop engine.

2.

Remove drain plug (1) and drain gear oil.

3.

Set a new gasket on drain plug and install it to final drive assem-
bly and tighten to the specified torque. Refer to 

DLN-101,

"Exploded View"

.

CAUTION:

Never reuse gasket.

REAR DIFFERENTIAL GEAR OIL : Refilling

INFOID:0000000004292115

1.

Remove filler plug (1). Fill with new gear oil until oil level reaches
the specified level near filler plug mounting hole.

2.

After refilling oil, check oil level. Set a new gasket to filler plug,
then install it to final drive assembly. Refer to 

DLN-101,

"Exploded View"

.

CAUTION:

Never reuse gasket.

WHEELS (BONDING WEIGHT TYPE)

WHEELS (BONDING WEIGHT TYPE) : Adjustment

INFOID:0000000003671636

BALANCING WHEELS (BONDING WEIGHT TYPE)

Preparation Before Adjustment

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 tire balance machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.

2.

When inner and outer unbalance values are shown on the tire balance machine indicator, multiply outer
unbalance 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 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.
• Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the road wheel.

 5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) 

⇒

 37.5 g (1.32 oz) bal-

NOTE:
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.

b.

Installed balance weight in the position.
• When installing balance weight (1) to road wheels, set it into

the grooved area (A) on the inner wall of the road wheel as
shown in the figure so that the balance weight center (B) is
aligned with the tire balance machine indication position
(angle) (C).

CAUTION:

• Always use genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights.
• Balance weights are non-reusable; always replace with

new ones.

• Do not install more than three sheets of balance weight.

c.

If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install
two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown in
the figure.

CAUTION:

Do not install one balance weight sheet on top of another.

3.

Start the tire balance machine again.

4.

Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the
tire balance machine indication position (angle).

CAUTION:

Do not install more than two balance weight.

5.

Start the tire balance machine. Make sure that inner and outer
residual unbalance values are 5 g (0.17 oz) each or below.

6.

If either residual unbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.17 oz), repeat installation procedures.

• Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals.

Refer to 

MA-5, "FOR NORTH AMERICA : Explanation of General

Maintenance"

.

• When installing the wheel, tighten wheel nuts to the specified

torque.

CAUTION:

• Do not include the T-type spare tire when rotating the tires.
• When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing

the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.

• Be careful not to tighten wheel nut at torque exceeding the

criteria for preventing strain of disc rotor.

• Use NISSAN genuine wheel nuts for aluminum wheels.

• Perform the ID registration, after tire rotation. Refer to 

WT-5, "ID REGISTRATION PROCEDURE : Special

Repair Requirement"

.

during a collision, unless not damaged and properly operating after minor collision.
Also inspect seat belt assemblies not in use during a collision, and replace if damaged or improperly
operating.
Seat belt pre-tensioner should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during a frontal colli-
sion where the driver and passenger air bags are deployed.

• If any component of seat belt assembly is questionable, do not repair.

Replace as seat belt assembly.

• If webbing is cut, frayed, or damaged, replace belt assembly.
• Never oil tongue and buckle.
• Use a genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.
For details, refer to

tion occurred) as much as possible when the customer brings the vehicle in.

>> GO TO 2.

2.

CHECK DTC

Perform self-diagnosis for automatic drive positioner (ADP) with CONSULT-III.
Is any DTC detected?

YES

>> Refer to 

ADP-131, "DTC Index"

NO

>> GO TO 3.

3.

REPRODUCE THE MALFUNCTION INFORMATION

Check the malfunction on the vehicle that the customer describes.
Inspect the relation of the symptoms and the condition when the symptoms occur.

>> GO TO 4.

4.

IDENTIFY THE MALFUNCTIONING SYSTEM WITH “SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS”

Use “Symptom diagnosis” from the symptom inspection result in step 3. Then identify where to start perform-
ing the diagnosis based on possible causes and symptoms.

>> GO TO 5.

5.

IDENTIFY MALFUNCTIONING PARTS WITH “COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS”

Perform the diagnosis with “Component diagnosis” of the applicable system.

>> GO TO 6.

6.

REPAIR OR REPLACE THE MALFUNCTIONING PARTS

Repair or replace the specified malfunctioning parts.

>> GO TO 7.

7.

FINAL CHECK

Check that malfunctions are not reproduced when obtaining the malfunction information from the customer,
referring to the symptom inspection result in step 3.
Are all malfunctions corrected?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> GO TO 4.

DOOR MIRROR SYSTEM

System Diagram

INFOID:0000000003554733

System Description

INFOID:0000000003554734

 MANUAL FUNCTION

• Door mirror system is composed of automatic drive positioner, door mirror remote control switch and door

mirror.

• Automatic drive positioner control unit controls door mirror.
• Automatic drive positioner control unit receives changeover switch signal and perform the LH/RH control of

door mirror motor that supplies electric power when changeover switch is operated.

• Automatic drive positioner control unit receives mirror switch signal and supplies electric power to door mir-

ror motor when mirror switch is operated.

• The door mirrors can be operated manually when ignition switch is in either ACC or ON position. The ignition

switch signal (ACC/ON) is transmitted from BCM to the driver seat control unit via CAN communication and
from the driver seat control unit to the automatic drive positioner control unit via UART communication.

AUTOMATIC DRIVE POSITIONER SYSTEM LINKED OPERATION

Door mirror control is included in automatic drive positioner system. Refer to automatic drive positioner system
for more details.
