Second Hand Nissan Note Oil Pump

Yes, every Nissan Note has an oil pump — it is a fundamental engine component required by all petrol and diesel internal combustion engines to circulate oil around the engine, so all variants across both generations are fitted with one. The design and specification of the pump differs depending on which engine is fitted, so the engine code is the critical detail when sourcing a used unit from a breaker.

The first-generation Note ran from 2004 to 2013 and the second generation from 2013 onwards, and these generations used different engine families, so in most cases the oil pump will not be a straight swap between them. Even where an engine code appears similar across generations, the pump mounting and internal tolerances can differ, so you should always confirm compatibility with the breaker against your exact registration and engine code rather than assume it will fit.

The first-generation Note (2004–2013) received a facelift around 2008–2009, but the core engine lineup — including codes such as CR14DE, HR16DE, and K9K for diesel — carried across that facelift, meaning the oil pump may well be shared across those years if the engine code matches. However, ancillary and mounting changes can occur mid-production without obvious external signs, so confirm with the breaker against your registration and engine code before purchasing.

Yes, fuel type matters significantly — the petrol engines (such as the 1.4 CR14DE or 1.6 HR16DE) and the diesel engine (the 1.5 dCi K9K) are entirely different units with different oil pump designs, and the parts are not interchangeable between them. Always tell the breaker both your fuel type and your engine code, which you can find on your V5C or via a VIN check, as this is the single most useful piece of information for matching the correct pump.

No, trim level has no bearing on oil pump fitment — whether your Note is a Visia, Acenta, or Tekna, what determines the correct pump is the engine code, not the badge or equipment level. Trims across the Note range were offered with the same engine options, so simply supply the breaker with your engine code and registration and disregard the trim entirely when searching for this part.

2014 sits right at the generational changeover, as the first generation ran to 2013 and the second generation began in 2013–2014, so a 2014 Note could be either depending on when in the year it was registered and which market batch it came from. The safest approach is to get your engine code from the V5C or a VIN check and supply that directly to the breaker, as the engine code will confirm exactly which pump is required regardless of which generation your vehicle turns out to be.
