A used engine mount that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
This question spans the boundary between the N15 generation (1995–2000) and the N16 generation (2000–2006), and engine mounts are not guaranteed to interchange across that changeover. Even if both cars share a similar engine code such as the 1.4 or 1.6 petrol, the subframe and mounting points differ between generations. Confirm with the breaker against your registration and engine code before ordering.
Both years fall within the N16 generation (2000–2006), so there is a reasonable chance of compatibility, but the engine code is the most important detail to match — for example, a QG15DE 1.5 petrol mount may differ from a QG18DE 1.8 petrol or a YD22 2.2 diesel mount even within the same generation. Supply your engine code (found on your V5 or a VIN check) to the breaker so they can confirm the correct mount. Never assume fitment on year alone.
No — trim level, whether Basis, Ambiance, SE, or Sport, has no effect on engine mount fitment. Engine mounts are determined by your engine code, fuel type, and gearbox type, not by the badge on the back. Focus on supplying your engine code to the breaker rather than your trim name.
Yes, gearbox type can affect which engine mounts are required, as the torque characteristics and mounting arrangement can differ between manual and automatic variants. Always tell the breaker whether your car is a manual or automatic alongside your engine code. This is especially relevant on N16 generation cars where automatic gearbox fitment was available on certain engine variants.
No, diesel and petrol engine mounts are generally not interchangeable on the Nissan Almera because the engines are physically different in size, weight, and mounting position. On the N16 generation for example, the YD22 diesel engine uses different mounts to the QG-series petrol engines. Always confirm your engine code with the breaker to ensure the mount is from a matching engine variant.
Engine mounts are a mechanical component determined by the engine code and drivetrain, not by body style, so the hatchback and saloon variants of the same generation sharing the same engine code will typically use the same mounts. Body style does not affect fitment here. Confirm your engine code with the breaker and they will be able to match the correct part to your vehicle.
