2013 Nissan Juke Cylinder Head Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to remove and refit the engine components, including the cylinder head on diesel 2013 Nissan Juke?

  A: As an initial step concerning the removal of the engine, you will have to drop the oil pan by draining the engine oil with a new sealing washer and expect the torque to be tightened as recommended. If we are near the next service interval of an engine, then it is recommended to change the oil filter as well. Once assembly is completed, put in new fresh oil into the engine. Subsequently, take off the cylinder head cover, fuel injectors, fuel rail, high pressure fuel pump, exhaust manifold, timing belt, camshaft and the followers, and the tensioner roller for the timing belt. Remove the inner timing cover by unbolting and then removing it with the use of three/8-inch extension, then remove all the bolts which hold the cylinder head with a ¾-inch extension while removing them in a sequence from bottom up then the cylinder head can be lifted off the block using a hammer and wooden block. It is recommended to take out the gasket and indicate the locating dowels. For refitting, the surfaces that include the area where the cylinder head and block come together should be free from gasket and carbon deposits by using a scraper, and clean the piston tops. It is worth seeing if there has been any form of damages on the block and head; if warpage is assumed, use the straight-edge to confirm. Machining and access to clean the cylinder head bolt holes must be done and the oil cleared to avoid hydraulic pressures. Torque the cylinder head bolts using a new set while omitting oil on the threads. For refitting the mating surfaces should be cleaned, dowels checked, a new gasket should be inserted and the cylinder head assembly properly aligned and fitted. Place washers on the new head bolts, tightened them up to some time and then tighten to the next greater tightening sequence in line with the set torque. Finally, put back the inner timing cover, timing belt tensioner roller, the two camshafts, the timing belt, the exhaust manifold, HPFP, fuel rail, the four fuel injectors and lastly re-fix the cylinder head cover.
