Used gearbox mounts vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:
Yes, the Nissan Almera is a front-wheel-drive car, and like all front-wheel-drive vehicles it uses engine and transmission mounts to secure the gearbox to the subframe or body — so a gearbox mount does exist on this model. The exact number and position of mounts can vary between engine variants and generations, but the part is genuine and searchable. When quoting, give the breaker your engine code (found on your V5 or a VIN check) so they can match the correct mount.
The N15 and N16 are separate generations with different subframe and engine bay layouts, so you should treat them as non-interchangeable for mounting components. The N16 ran from 2000 to 2006 and the N15 from 1995 to 2000, and the change in platform makes a straight swap unlikely. Confirm with the breaker using your registration and engine code before ordering, as mount geometry and bolt patterns differ between generations.
No — body style does not affect gearbox mount fitment on the Almera. The mount is a mechanical component that follows the engine and drivetrain layout, not the bodywork. What matters is your engine code, fuel type (petrol or diesel), and gearbox type (manual or automatic), so focus on supplying those details to the breaker.
Trim level does not affect gearbox mount fitment — the mount is determined by the engine code and gearbox type, not whether the car is an S, SE, or SVE. All those trims shared the same fundamental drivetrain mounting arrangements for a given engine variant. You may find cosmetic differences between cars being broken (interior colour, alloys, etc.) but these have no bearing on whether the mount fits.
The N16 Almera received a facelift around 2003, meaning some 2003 cars are pre-facelift and some are post-facelift, which can make sourcing parts across that boundary uncertain. While the core drivetrain layout is broadly similar across the N16 generation, ancillary and mounting changes can occur mid-production without a formal model year break. Give the breaker your full registration and engine code so they can verify the mount matches your exact build date rather than assuming it will cross the facelift boundary safely.
The engine code matters far more than the year alone — the Almera was offered with multiple petrol and diesel engines across both generations, and different engines can require different mount designs even within the same model year. The engine code is stamped on the engine itself and listed on your V5, and it is the single most useful detail you can give a breaker. Year alone risks getting the wrong part, so always supply the engine code alongside your registration when requesting a quote.
