PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTION A
PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT B
PRE-TENSIONER" INFOID:0000000011485388

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along C
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. D
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the “SRS AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.
WARNING: E
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
F
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”. G
• 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. H
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
Always observe the following items for preventing accidental activation. I
• 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 J
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.
EXT
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top Cover INFOID:0000000011485389

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

PIIB3706J
O
Precaution for Battery Service INFOID:0000000011485390

Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interfer- P
ence between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.

Revision: 2015 June EXT-3 GT-R


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION >
Precautions for Removing Battery Terminal INFOID:0000000011485391

• When removing the 12V battery terminal, turn OFF the ignition
switch and wait at least 30 seconds.
NOTE:
ECU may be active for several tens of seconds after the ignition
switch is turned OFF. If the battery terminal is removed before ECU
stops, then a DTC detection error or ECU data corruption may
occur.
• For vehicles with the 2-batteries, be sure to connect the main bat-
tery and the sub battery before turning ON the ignition switch.
NOTE:
If the ignition switch is turned ON with any one of the terminals of
SEF289H
main battery and sub battery disconnected, then DTC may be
detected.
• After installing the 12V battery, always check "Self Diagnosis Result" of all ECUs and erase DTC.
NOTE:
The removal of 12V battery may cause a DTC detection error.
Aluminum Die-Casting Parts Handling INFOID:0000000011485392

PROHIBITION OF WELDING OR BEATING REPAIR


• Material made of aluminum die-casting parts is heat-treated and looses strength when being exposed to
welding heat. Do not perform welding repair for cracks, damage or others.
• For aluminum die-casting parts deformation, do not perform repair by beating. Always repair by replacement
as an assembly.
CRACK CHECK
When the vehicle is damaged, always perform a visual deformation check and a crack check.
Crack Check Procedures
For a crack check, use dye penetrant inspection fluid (pre-cleaning fluid, penetrant fluid and developer fluid).
CAUTION:
Always perform a crack check in accordance with the procedures specified by the manufacturer of the
dye penetrant inspection fluid.
1. Spray pre-cleaning fluid on the checking surface for cleaning.
2. Spray penetrant fluid on the checking surface and wait until the penetrant fluid soaks into any cracks.
3. Wipe off excessive penetrant fluid, and then also lightly wipe off penetrant fluid using a wet cloth.
4. Spray developer fluid on the checking surface.
5. Cracks, if any, are dyed red in color.
STRAY CURRENT CORROSION
• Corrosion occurs to aluminum die-casting parts by the stray current corrosion phenomenon, when directly
contacting other parts made of steel. Always apply anti-stray current corrosion paint (primer) on the mount-
ing surface.
• Clean mounting surface to prevent any foreign matter, steel powder or others from being mixed in. Always
apply the specified adhesive when installing.
• Corrosion by stray current corrosion may occur when installing with any other bolts than the specified bolt.
Always use the specified bolt that is surface treated.
• When loosening the specified bolt that is tightened, the treated surface may peel. Never reuse the specified
bolt that is tightened once.
TIGHTENING TORQUE CONTROL
Material made of aluminum die-casting parts is soft in term of hardness. Tightening torque must be controlled
exactly as specified. Always use a torque wrench to install any part to the specified tightening torque.
WARNING:
Never use a power tool to remove or tighten bolts for aluminum die-casting part to prevent damage to
aluminum die-casting parts.

Titanium Muffler Handling INFOID:0000000011773229

A
CAUTION:
• Never touch the titanium muffler directly with bare hands or allow oils to adhere to it during inspec-
tion, removal, and installation. B
• Always wear new thick cotton gloves or working gloves. (Never use oil-adhered gloves.)
• After oil adhesion, wait until the titanium muffler cools and immediately remove oil with parts
cleaner.
• Always use genuine parts cleaner (dry type) or the equivalent. C
• When cleaning oil in on-board condition, apply parts cleaner to a waste to wipe out oil. By doing so,
peripheral parts can be protected from parts cleaner adhesion.
• Be careful not to cut fingers with the insulator edge or the main muffler cooling fin. D
Precaution for Work INFOID:0000000011485394

• After removing and installing the opening/closing parts, be sure to carry out fitting adjustments to check their E
operation.
• Check the lubrication level, damage, and wear of each part. If necessary, grease or replace it.

CUSTOMER INTERVIEW
Interview the customer if possible, to determine the conditions that exist when the noise occurs. Use the Diag-
nostic Worksheet during the interview to document the facts and conditions when the noise occurs and any of
customer's comments; refer to EXT-12, "Diagnostic Worksheet". This information is necessary to duplicate the
conditions that exist when the noise occurs.
• The customer may not be able to provide a detailed description or the location of the noise. Attempt to obtain
all the facts and conditions that exist when the noise occurs (or does not occur).
• If there is more than one noise in the vehicle, perform a diagnosis and repair the noise that the customer is
concerned about. This can be accomplished by performing a cruise test on the vehicle with the customer.
• After identifying the type of noise, isolate the noise in terms of its characteristics. The noise characteristics
are provided so the customer, service adviser and technician are all speaking the same language when
defining the noise.
• Squeak – (Like tennis shoes on a clean floor)
Squeak characteristics include the light contact/fast movement/brought on by road conditions/hard surfaces
= higher pitch noise/softer surfaces = lower pitch noises/edge to surface = chirping
• Creak – (Like walking on an old wooden floor)
Creak characteristics include firm contact/slow movement/twisting with a rotational movement/pitch depen-
dent on materials/often brought on by activity.
• Rattle – (Like shaking a baby rattle)
Rattle characteristics include the fast repeated contact/vibration or similar movement/loose parts/missing
clip or fastener/incorrect clearance.
• Knock – (Like a knock on a door)
Knock characteristics include hollow sounding/sometimes repeating/often brought on by driver action.
• Tick – (Like a clock second hand)
Tick characteristics include gentle contacting of light materials/loose components/can be caused by driver
action or road conditions.
• Thump – (Heavy, muffled knock noise)
Thump characteristics include softer knock/dead sound often brought on by activity.
• Buzz – (Like a bumblebee)
Buzz characteristics include high frequency rattle/firm contact.
• Often the degree of acceptable noise level will vary depending up on the person. A noise that a technician
may judge as acceptable may be very irritating to the customer.
• Weather conditions, especially humidity and temperature, may have a great effect on noise level.
DUPLICATE THE NOISE AND TEST DRIVE

Revision: 2015 June EXT-8 GT-R


SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
< SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS >
If possible, drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated. Note any additional information on
the Diagnostic Worksheet regarding the conditions or location of the noise. This information can be used to A
duplicate the same conditions when the repair is reconfirmed.
If the noise can be duplicated easily during the test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to dupli-
cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all of the following:
B
1) Close a door.
2) Tap or push/pull around the area where the noise appears to be coming from.
3) Rev the engine.
4) Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle “twist”. C
5) At idle, apply engine load (electrical load, half-clutch on M/T models, drive position on A/T models).
6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with a rubber hammer.
• Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs. D
• If it is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the vehicle slowly on an undulating or rough road to stress the
vehicle body.
CHECK RELATED SERVICE BULLETINS E
After verifying the customer concern or symptom, check ASIST for Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) related
to that concern or symptom.
If a TSB relates to the symptom, follow the procedure to repair the noise.
F
LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE
1. Narrow down the noise to a general area. To help pinpoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool
(Chassis ear: J-39570, Engine ear and mechanics stethoscope). G
2. Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the cause of the noise by:
• Removing the components in the area that is are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
Do not use too much force when removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fastener can be broken H
or lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new noise.
• Tapping or pushing/pulling the component that is are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
Do not tap or push/pull the component with excessive force, otherwise the noise will be eliminated only tem-
I
porarily.
• Feeling for a vibration by hand by touching the component(s) that is are suspected to be the cause of the
noise.
• Placing a piece of paper between components that are suspected to be the cause of the noise. J
• Looking for loose components and contact marks.
Refer to EXT-10, "Inspection Procedure".
REPAIR THE CAUSE EXT
• If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component securely.
• If the cause is insufficient clearance between components:
- Separate components by repositioning or loosening and retightening the component, if possible. L
- Insulate components with a suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth tape or ure-
thane tape. A Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-50397) is available through the authorized Nissan Parts
Department.
CAUTION: M
Never use excessive force as many components are constructed of plastic and may be damaged.
NOTE:
Always check with the Parts Department for the latest parts information. N
The following materials are contained in the Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-50397). are listed on the inside
cover of the kit, and can each be ordered separately as needed.

DUCT TAPE
Used to eliminate movement.
CONFIRM THE REPAIR
Confirm that the cause of a noise is repaired by test driving the vehicle. Operate the vehicle under the same
conditions as when the noise originally occurred. Refer to the notes on the Diagnostic Worksheet.
Inspection Procedure INFOID:0000000011485398

Refer to Table of Contents for specific component removal and installation information.
INSTRUMENT PANEL
Most incidents are caused by contact and movement between:
1. The cluster lid A and instrument panel
2. Acrylic lens and combination meter housing
3. Instrument panel to front pillar garnish
4. Instrument panel to windshield
5. Instrument panel mounting pins
6. Wiring harnesses behind the combination meter
7. A/C defroster duct and duct joint
These incidents can usually be located by tapping or moving the components to duplicate the noise or by
pressing on the components while driving to stop the noise. Most of these incidents can be repaired by
applying felt cloth tape or silicon spray (in hard to reach areas). Urethane pads can be used to insulate
wiring harness.
CAUTION:
Never use silicone spray to isolate a squeak or rattle. If the area is saturated with silicone, the
recheck of repair becomes impossible.
CENTER CONSOLE
Components to pay attention to include:
1. Shifter assembly cover to finisher
2. A/C control unit and cluster lid C
3. Wiring harnesses behind audio and A/C control unit
The instrument panel repair and isolation procedures also apply to the center console.
DOORS
Pay attention to the following:
1. Finisher and inner panel making a slapping noise
2. Inside handle escutcheon to door finisher
3. Wiring harnesses tapping
4. Door striker out of alignment causing a popping noise on starts and stops
Tapping or moving the components or pressing on them while driving to duplicate the conditions can isolate
many of these incidents. The areas can usually be insulated with felt cloth tape or insulator foam blocks from
the Nissan Squeak and Rattle Kit (J-50397) to repair the noise.
TRUNK
Trunk noises are often caused by a loose jack or loose items put into the trunk by the customer.
In addition look for the following:
1. Trunk lid dumpers out of adjustment
2. Trunk lid striker out of adjustment

Revision: 2015 June EXT-10 GT-R


SQUEAK AND RATTLE TROUBLE DIAGNOSES
< SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS >
3. The trunk lid torsion bars knocking together
4. A loose license plate or bracket A
Most of these incidents can be repaired by adjusting, securing or insulating the item(s) or component(s) caus-
ing the noise.
B
SUNROOF/HEADLINING
Noises in the sunroof/headlining area can often be traced to one of the following:
1. Sunroof lid, rail, linkage or seals making a rattle or light knocking noise
C
2. Sunvisor shaft shaking in the holder
3. Front or rear windshield touching headlining and squeaking
Again, pressing on the components to stop the noise while duplicating the conditions can isolate most of these D
incidents. Repairs usually consist of insulating with felt cloth tape.
SEATS
When isolating seat noise it's important to note the position the seats in and the load placed on the seat when E
the noise occurs. These conditions should be duplicated when verifying and isolating the cause of the noise.
Cause of seat noise include:
1. Headrest rods and holder F
2. A squeak between the seat pad cushion and frame
3. The rear seatback lock and bracket
These noises can be isolated by moving or pressing on the suspected components while duplicating the con- G
ditions under which the noise occurs.Most of these incidents can be repaired by repositioning the component
or applying urethane tape to the contact area.
UNDERHOOD H
Some interior noise may be caused by components under the hood or on the engine wall. The noise is then
transmitted into the passenger compartment.
Causes of transmitted underhood noise include: I
1. Any component mounted to the engine wall
2. Components that pass through the engine wall
3. Engine wall mounts and connectors J
4. Loose radiator mounting pins
5. Hood bumpers out of adjustment
EXT
6. Hood striker out of adjustment
These noises can be difficult to isolate since they cannot be reached from the interior of the vehicle. The best
method is to secure, move or insulate one component at a time and test drive the vehicle. Also, engine RPM
L
or load can be changed to isolate the noise. Repairs can usually be made by moving, adjusting, securing, or
insulating the component causing the noise.

CAUTION:
• Never apply any chemical products like wax, coating agent, and compound for carbon parts. They
are produced by composite manufacturing methods similar to a racing vehicle and special paint is
adopted to enhance the look and feel of materials. (Otherwise, water may penetrate to carbon layers
and may cause corrosion.)
• Never place any carbon parts directly on the ground. Always protect them using a soft sheet during
removal, installation, and replacement operations. Never touch carbon parts with oily hands or allow
oil or grease to get on them.
• Be careful of being burned because the rear bumper guard is very hot after driving.
• The bumper fascia is made of resin. Never apply strong force to it, and be careful to prevent contact
with oil.
