Removal and Installation: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Nissan Titan XD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
- To avoid the risk of personal injury from a falling or shifting engine. Use only lifting equipment designed to lift the weight of the engine and transmission assemblies safely. To determine the weight of the engine and transmission assemblies refer to the Service Data Specification (SDS) section of the Engine Mechanical (EM) and Transmission (TM) sections of the service information.
- To avoid the risk of personal injury by moving or shifting drive train components, always properly support the drive train components not being removed.
- Situate vehicle on a flat and solid surface.
- Place chocks at front and back of rear wheels.
- For engines not equipped with engine slingers, attach proper slingers and bolts described in PARTS CATALOG.
CAUTION:
- Always be careful to work safely, avoid forceful or uninstructed operations.
- Do not start working until exhaust system and engine coolant are cooled sufficiently.
- If items or work required are not covered by the engine section, follow the applicable procedures.
- Always use the support point specified for lifting.
- Use either 2-point lift type or separate type lift. If board-on type is used for unavoidable reasons, support at the rear axle jacking point with transmission jack or similar tool before starting work, in preparation for the backward shift of center of gravity.
- For supporting points for lifting and jacking point at rear axle, refer to 2-Pole Lift .
NOTE:
When removing components such as hoses, tubes/lines, etc., cap or plug openings to prevent fluid from spilling.
