3.
Check the engine oil level, and adjust the level. Refer to
Changing Spark Plugs (Platinum-Tipped Type)
INFOID:0000000001328907
REMOVAL
1.
Remove engine cover with power tool. Refer to
2.
Remove ignition coil. Refer to
3.
Remove spark plug with a spark plug wrench (commercial ser-
vice tool).
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Use the standard type spark plug for normal condition.
The hot type spark plug is suitable when fouling occurs with the standard type spark plug under conditions
such as:
• Frequent engine starts
• Low ambient temperatures
The cold type spark plug is suitable when spark knock occurs with the standard type spark plug under condi-
tions such as:
• Extended highway driving
• Frequent high engine revolution

Checking Drive Belts
INFOID:0000000001328909
WARNING:
Be sure to perform when the engine is stopped.
• Remove air duct (inlet) when inspecting drive belt for alternator, water pump and A/C compressor.
• Remove front engine undercover with power tool when inspecting power steering oil pump belt.
• Make sure that indicator (single line notch) of each auto tensioner is within the allowable working range
(between three line notches).
NOTE:
• Check auto tensioner indication when engine is cold.
• When new drive belt is installed, the range should be “A”.
• The indicator notch is located on the moving side of the tensioner for alternator, water pump and A/C com-
pressor belt, while it is found on the fixed side for power steering oil pump belt.
• Visually check entire belt for wear, damage or cracks.
• If the indicator is out of allowable working range or belt is damaged, replace belt.

Balancing Wheels (Bonding Weight Type)
INFOID:0000000001328926
REMOVAL
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 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.
• Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the road wheel.
Indicated unbalance value
×
5/3 = balance weight to be installed
Calculation example:
23 g (0.81 oz)
×
5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz)
⇒
40 g (1.41 oz) bal-
ance weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.

Install balance weight in the position shown in the figure at right.
b.
When installing balance weight to road wheels, set it into the
grooved area on the inner wall of the road wheel as shown in the
figure so that the balance weight center is aligned with the tire
balance machine indication position (angle).
CAUTION:
• Always use genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights.
• Balance weights are unreusable; 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 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 weights.
5.
Start tire balance machine. Make sure that inner and outer resid-
ual unbalance values are 5.0 g (0.18 oz) each or below.
• If either residual unbalance value exceeds 5.0 g (0.18 oz), repeat installation procedures.
Tire Rotation
INFOID:0000000001328927
• After rotation the tires, adjust the tire pressure.
• Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven for
1,000 km (600 miles) (also in cases of a flat tire, etc.).
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.
