Second Hand Nissan Navara Engine Mount

The Navara D40 ran from 2005 to 2015, with a facelift around 2010, and engine mounts within the D40 generation can vary depending on engine code and gearbox type rather than model year alone — so a pre-facelift mount does not automatically fit a post-facelift vehicle. The most reliable approach is to supply your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) to the breaker, who can confirm whether the donor mount matches yours. Never assume fitment purely on the basis of both vehicles being D40s.

Yes — engine code is the single most important detail for this part, because the Navara has been offered with different diesel engines across its generations (the D22, D40, and NP300 D23) and mounts are matched to the specific engine rather than the model badge. Your engine code is printed on your V5C or can be retrieved from a VIN check, and giving it to the breaker is far more useful than quoting the year alone. Fuel type and gearbox type (manual or automatic) are also worth mentioning as these can affect which mount you need.

The NP300 (D23), which replaced the D40 from around 2016 onwards, is a substantially different vehicle with different engine configurations, so its engine mounts are not expected to be interchangeable with D40 mounts. These are separate generations with different engine codes, and treating them as compatible would be a mistake. Always confirm the exact engine code with the breaker against your registration before ordering.

Trim level — whether Visia, Acenta, Tekna, or any other — does not affect engine mount fitment, as this is a mechanical component determined by engine code, fuel type, and gearbox rather than the specification level. A mount from a basic Visia with the same engine code and gearbox as a top-spec Tekna should be the same part. Bear in mind that trim levels can sometimes correspond to different engine or gearbox options, so confirm the engine code matches rather than relying on trim name alone.

Gearbox type can influence engine mount design and positioning, so a mount from a manual-gearbox Navara may not be a straightforward swap onto an automatic variant even if the engine codes match. It is worth flagging both your engine code and gearbox type to the breaker so they can source a mount from a matching donor vehicle. Do not assume the parts are identical without the breaker confirming this against your specific registration.

The D40 Navara received a facelift around 2010, which means a 2009 vehicle sits in the pre-facelift phase of that generation. Whether the facelift brought any changes to engine mount design or ancillary mounting points is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration and engine code, as mid-production changes of this kind are not always well-documented. Providing your engine code gives the breaker the best chance of sourcing the correct mount from a compatible donor vehicle.
