4. Installation Instructions

Follow these steps for proper installation of the Nissan PITWORK Oil Filter AY100-NS004:

Verify Compatibility: Confirm that the replacement filter matches your vehicle's specific model, type, and part number. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual or the compatibility chart in this manual.
Prepare Sealing Surface: Thoroughly wipe off any dirt, debris, or foreign matter from the engine-side sealing surface where the filter will attach. A clean surface is critical for a proper seal.
Lubricate Gasket: Ensure the new filter's rubber gasket is correctly seated in its groove. Then, apply a thin layer of clean engine oil around the entire circumference of the gasket. This helps create a good seal and prevents damage during tightening.
Install Filter: Screw the filter onto the engine by turning it clockwise. Hand-tighten until the gasket makes firm contact with the engine-side sealing surface. Once contact is made, use a suitable filter wrench to tighten the filter according to the rotation specified on the filter body. Do not overtighten.
Check for Leaks and Oil Level: After installation, add the appropriate amount of new engine oil. Start the engine and let it run for at least 3 minutes. Then, turn off the engine, wait a few minutes for the oil to settle, and check for any oil leaks around the filter's seal. Finally, confirm the engine oil level using the dipstick and add more oil if necessary.

5. Maintenance

For optimal engine performance and longevity, adhere to your vehicle's recommended maintenance schedule:

Oil Level: Regularly check your engine oil level and maintain it within the recommended range as specified in your vehicle's owner's manual.
Replacement Timing: The timing for oil filter replacement should strictly follow the guidelines provided in your vehicle's 'Maintenance Handbook' or 'Owner's Manual'. This typically coincides with engine oil changes.
