Nissan Interstar Radiator Fan Replacement Parts

The Nissan Interstar (2002–2010, a badge-engineered Renault Master / Opel Movano) is a diesel-only van and, like most modern diesel vans of that era, it uses an electric or viscous engine-driven radiator fan as part of its cooling system, so the part does genuinely exist on this model. All engine variants — including the 2.2 dCi and 2.5 dCi units — were fitted with a radiator fan, so you are looking for the right part. Check your engine code on your V5 or a VIN check before sourcing one, as the fan assembly or its mounting can differ between engine variants.

The Nissan Interstar ran as a single generation from 2002 to 2010, but there were running production changes throughout its life and the fan assembly or ancillary mounting details may differ between earlier and later build dates. Engine code is the most reliable guide here — if the donor vehicle shares the same engine code as yours, fitment is more likely, but you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration to be sure. Never assume a direct swap without that check.

Trim level — whether S, SE or any other grade — does not affect which radiator fan is fitted; this is a mechanical part that follows the engine, not the badge or specification level. What matters is your engine code (2.2 dCi or 2.5 dCi) and your model year, not whether you have a base or higher trim. You may find minor cosmetic differences in shrouding or brackets between vehicles, but the core fitment question is always engine code first.

Gearbox type is not typically the primary driver of radiator fan selection on the Interstar, since the fan is tied to the engine and cooling circuit rather than the transmission. However, some automatic or robotised gearbox variants can introduce additional cooling demands that may affect ancillary components near the fan, so it is worth mentioning your gearbox type when contacting a breaker. Engine code remains the single most important detail to supply.

The 2.2 dCi and 2.5 dCi are different engine families and the radiator fan assemblies are not guaranteed to interchange between them, as the mounting, shroud dimensions and electrical connections can vary. Always match on engine code rather than just displacement or fuel type — confirm the exact engine code from your V5 and give that to the breaker so they can check the donor vehicle matches. Fitting a mismatched fan risks cooling inefficiency or assembly incompatibility, so do not assume they are interchangeable without that confirmation.

The Nissan Interstar, Renault Master (X70 generation) and Vauxhall Movano of the same era (roughly 2002–2010) are mechanically very closely related, sharing engines and much of the cooling architecture, so cross-badge parts are commonly used by breakers. That said, there were variant-specific differences in fan assemblies and mounting points across the production run, so you should confirm with the breaker that the donor vehicle's engine code matches yours, regardless of which badge it carries. A good breaker will cross-reference by engine code rather than just model name.
