Choosing the right used Nissan Leaf cylinder head
Used cylinder heads 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:
- State whether it's petrol or diesel
- State the engine code if known

Fitment questions
Does a Nissan Leaf cylinder head from a 2015 car fit my 2018 Leaf?
The Nissan Leaf first generation (Mk1) ran from 2011 to 2017, and the second generation (Mk2) arrived for 2018, so a 2015 unit and a 2018 unit come from different generations with different electric motor and battery architectures. Crossing that 2017–2018 generation boundary means the cylinder head is extremely unlikely to be compatible, and you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before ordering. Never assume fitment across a generation change.
Will a cylinder head from a 2014 Nissan Leaf fit a 2013 Leaf?
Both the 2013 and 2014 Leaf sit within the first-generation (Mk1, 2011–2017) range, so you are working within the same generation, which is a good starting point. However, confirm the exact motor and drivetrain codes with the breaker against your registration, as ancillary or mounting changes can occur mid-production even within the same generation. Staying within the Mk1 range does not guarantee fitment, but it puts you in the right ballpark.
Does trim level matter when buying a used Nissan Leaf cylinder head — for example, will a Visia cylinder head fit an Acenta or Tekna?
For a mechanical part like a cylinder head, trim level — whether Visia, Acenta, or Tekna — does not affect fitment; the drivetrain hardware is shared across those grades within the same generation and model year. You may receive a head from a differently equipped car, but that is purely cosmetic and makes no difference to whether it will fit your engine. Match on generation, model year, and motor code rather than trim name.
What details do I need to find a compatible Nissan Leaf cylinder head from a breaker?
Because the Nissan Leaf is fully electric, it does not have a conventional internal combustion engine and therefore has no traditional cylinder head — the term does not apply to this vehicle's drivetrain. If you are looking for a motor, inverter, or another drivetrain component, supply the breaker with your full registration or VIN so they can identify the correct generation (Mk1 2011–2017 or Mk2 2018 onwards) and motor variant. This will save time and avoid ordering an incompatible part.
Can I use a Nissan Leaf cylinder head from a 2017 car on a 2018 model?
The 2017 Leaf is the final year of the first generation (Mk1, 2011–2017), while the 2018 Leaf launched the second generation (Mk2), representing a significant platform change. Beyond that, the Nissan Leaf is a fully electric vehicle with no internal combustion engine, so there is no cylinder head in the conventional sense on either car. If you are searching for a specific drivetrain component, give the breaker your registration and explain exactly what you need, as terminology for EV parts differs from petrol or diesel vehicles.
