Work Support

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Nissan Pathfinder. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

When there is no malfunction with transfer and 4WD system, the following symptoms in AUTO mode may be claimed by a customer: vibration when accelerating on a low μ road (snow-covered or icy road) or a slight shock is felt at a few hertz as if it were being pushed lightly from behind.

It is possible to deal with these symptoms by changing the CLUTCH FORCE RELEASE LIMIT VALUE. However, be careful when changing the value because it may adversely affect driving performance.

  3. Select from CLUTCH/F RLS LIM ADJ, screen of data monitor mode is displayed.
