Propeller Shaft Vibration
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Nissan NV3500 HD and 2018 Nissan NV2500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
If vibration is present at high speed, check propeller shaft runout first, then check mounting between propeller shaft and companion flange.
- Measure the runout of the propeller shaft tube at several points by rotating the final drive companion flange with your hands.
Propeller shaft runout
: Refer to General Specification .
If the runout still exceeds specifications, disconnect the propeller shaft at the final drive companion flange; then rotate the companion flange 90°, 180°, 270° and reconnect propeller shaft.
Check the runout again. If the runout still exceeds specifications, replace the propeller shaft assembly.
After installation, check for vibration by driving the vehicle.
