The installation process of the clutch friction disc for Nissan vehicles is similar to that of other models, but attention must be paid to details in combination with the specific designs of Nissan models (such as Sylphy, Teana, X-Trail, etc.). The following are general installation steps and precautions (be sure to refer to the official maintenance manual of the corresponding model): I. Preparation before installation Cleaning and inspection of components •  For new friction discs, check if the surface is clean (if there is anti-rust oil or other oil stains, thoroughly clean with a special cleaning agent; do not use gasoline or kerosene to avoid residues affecting friction performance). Confirm that the friction disc has no cracks, loose rivets, or excessive wear.  •  Inspect the surface of the flywheel and pressure plate: Remove oil stains and rust. If there is ablation, grooves, or deformation (flatness error exceeding 0.1mm), repair or replace them; otherwise, it may cause the clutch to judder or slip.  •  Inspect the pilot bearing / bushing (located in the center of the flywheel): Ensure it rotates smoothly without jamming or abnormal noise, and replace if necessary.Tool Preparation • Essential tools: Special clutch alignment tool (some Nissan models have specific specifications), torque wrench, socket wrench, Phillips screwdriver, circlip pliers, etc.Installation Steps Determine the Direction of the Friction Disc • The friction disc has a front and a back. It is usually marked with "Transmission Side" or "Flywheel Side". For some Nissan models, one side of the splined hole of the friction disc has protrusions or specific patterns. It must be installed with the marked side facing the transmission to avoid unclear disengagement caused by incorrect installation.Concentricity of the fixed friction plate • Fit the friction plate to the flywheel, insert the alignment tool through the center hole of the friction plate and the flywheel pilot bearing, and ensure that the friction plate is completely concentric with the flywheel (if not concentric, the transmission input shaft cannot be installed smoothly, or it may cause abnormal noise during clutch operation).  Install the pressure plate and tighten the bolts •  Align the pressure plate with the flywheel locating pins (or bolt holes), fit it gently, and first manually screw in all the fixing bolts (usually 6-8 pieces) to ensure that the pressure plate is placed horizontally.  •  Tighten the bolts in a diagonal cross sequence in 2-3 stages (refer to the manual for torque, Nissan models are mostly 20-35N・m) to avoid pressure plate deformation caused by single tightening, which affects the uniformity of the clamping force.Remove the tool and inspect After the bolts are fully tightened, pull out the alignment tool, check if the friction plate can rotate freely (without jamming), and whether the pressure plate fits tightly with the flywheel. Assemble subsequent components Install the clutch release bearing (pay attention to the fitting clearance with the fork; some Nissan models require applying special grease), the fork, and the return spring to ensure the smooth operation of the release mechanism. When installing the gearbox, slowly push in the input shaft. If jamming occurs, recheck the concentricity of the friction plate; do not tap forcefully.Key Notes •  Oil Contamination Taboo: The working surfaces of the flywheel, pressure plate, and friction plate are absolutely prohibited from being contaminated with engine oil or gear oil; otherwise, it will cause the clutch to slip. Relevant components must be cleaned before installation.  •  Special Tools: The alignment tool specifications for some Nissan models (such as the old Sunny and Bluebird) are special, and original factory or matching models must be used to avoid concentricity deviation caused by mismatched tools.  •  Manual Priority: The clutch structure of Nissan models with different years and displacements (such as CVT transmission models and manual transmission models) may vary. Torque parameters and details must strictly follow the official maintenance manual (such as Nissan Service Manual).

The following are the core precautions for installing Nissan clutch friction plates, compiled in conjunction with the design characteristics of Nissan models and industry maintenance standards to ensure installation quality and the stability of the clutch system: I. Component Cleaning and Condition Control •  Strictly Prohibit Oil Contamination: The working surfaces of the friction plate, pressure plate, and the contact surface of the flywheel must be kept absolutely clean. If contaminated with engine oil, gear oil, etc., it will directly cause the clutch to slip or shudder. Before installation, they must be thoroughly cleaned with a special cleaning agent (such as brake cleaner). The use of gasoline or kerosene is prohibited (as they tend to leave residues that affect friction performance).  •  Inspection of Component Integrity: New friction plates must be checked for cracks, loose rivets, and detachment of friction materials. The splined hole should fit smoothly with the transmission input shaft (no jamming or excessive clearance). If the flywheel or pressure plate has ablation, grooves (with a depth exceeding 0.3mm), or a flatness error exceeding 0.1mm, they must be repaired or replaced; otherwise, abnormal clutch operation will occur.Auxiliary component inspection: The guide bearing/bushing at the center of the flywheel must rotate flexibly without abnormal noise; replace if necessary. The release bearing must be coated with Nissan's special grease (to prevent ordinary grease from failing at high temperatures) to ensure smooth cooperation with the shift fork.  II. Installation operation specifications • The direction of the friction plate must not be reversed: The friction plates of Nissan models are usually marked with "Transmission Side" (facing the transmission) or have a specific convex structure. Reversing the installation will lead to incomplete clutch disengagement and difficulty in shifting. Be sure to check the marks before installation.Strictly ensure concentricity: It is necessary to use the special alignment tool for the corresponding Nissan model to ensure that the friction plate is concentric with the flywheel. Otherwise, the transmission input shaft may not be inserted smoothly, or abnormal noise and vibration may occur during operation.  •  Bolt tightening requirements: The pressure plate fixing bolts need to be gradually tightened in a diagonal cross sequence in 2-3 steps. The torque value must strictly follow the Nissan official manual (usually 20-35N・m). Single-step tightening or excessive/insufficient torque is prohibited to avoid pressure plate deformation and uneven clamping force.
