INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

• Move joint up/down, left/right, and in the axial directions. Check for motion that is not smooth and for signifi-

cant looseness.

• Check boot for cracks, damage, and leakage of grease.
• Disassemble drive shaft and exchange malfunctioning part if there

is a non-standard condition.

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY

Shaft

Check shaft for runout, cracks, or other damage. Replace if necessary.

Dynamic Damper

Check damper for cracks or wear. Replace if necessary.

Joint Sub-Assembly (Wheel Side)

Check the following:
• Joint sub-assembly for rough rotation and excessive axial looseness.
• The inside of the joint sub-assembly for entry of foreign material.
• Joint sub-assembly for compression scars, cracks, and fractures inside of joint sub-assembly.
Replace joint sub-assembly if there are any non-standard conditions of components.

Housing Assembly (Transaxle Side)

Replace housing assembly if there is scratching or wear of housing assembly roller contact surface.

Link Shaft (Right side)

Check shaft for runout, cracks, or other damage. Replace if necessary.

Support Bearing (Right Side)

Make sure wheel bearing rolls freely and is free from noise, cracks, pitting or wear. Replace support bearing if
there are any non-standard conditions.

Support Bearing Bracket (Right Side)

Check for bending, cracks, or damage. Replace support bearing bracket if there are any non-standard condi-
tions.

FOR USA AND CANADA

FOR USA AND CANADA : Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR
BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER"

INFOID:0000000007542078

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the “SRS AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.

WARNING:

Always observe the following items for preventing accidental activation.
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in

the event of a collision that would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal

injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see “SRS AIR BAG”.

• Never use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this Ser-

vice Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or harness
connectors.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS

WARNING:

Always observe the following items for preventing accidental activation.
• When working near the Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the

ignition ON or engine running, never use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with
a hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.

• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the ignition OFF, disconnect the

battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service.

FOR USA AND CANADA : Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top Cover

INFOID:0000000007542080

When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc to prevent damage to
windshield.

FOR USA AND CANADA : Precautions for Suspension

INFOID:0000000007542081

• When installing rubber bushings, the final tightening must be carried out under unladen conditions with tires

on ground. Spilled oil might shorten the life of rubber bushings. Be sure to wipe off any spilled oil.

- Unladen conditions mean that fuel, engine coolant and lubricant are full. Spare tire, jack, hand tools and

mats are in designated positions.

• After servicing suspension parts, be sure to check wheel alignment.
• Self-lock nuts are not reusable. Always use new ones when installing. Since new self-lock nuts are pre-oiled,

tighten as they are.
