Nissan NV200 Gear Stick Replacement Parts

Only manual-gearbox versions of the NV200 have a conventional gear stick — the van was also sold with an automatic transmission, which uses a selector lever or rotary dial rather than a traditional gear stick. If your NV200 is an automatic, a manual gear stick simply was not fitted to your vehicle and you would need to look for the correct automatic selector assembly instead. Check your V5 or a VIN check to confirm whether your van left the factory with a manual or automatic gearbox before searching for this part.

The NV200 was produced in one main generation for the UK market, running from 2009 through to around 2021 before being replaced, with a facelift arriving around 2013 that brought some interior and exterior updates. Within that generation, many mechanical parts carry over, but ancillary and mounting details can change across the facelift boundary, so a pre-2013 gear stick may not drop straight into a post-2013 van without modification. The safest approach is to give the breaker your exact registration or engine code so they can match the part to your specific build year rather than assuming all years interchange freely.

The engine code is the most important detail for any mechanical drivetrain part on the NV200, and the gear stick and its surround can differ between the 1.5 dCi diesel and petrol variants because the gearbox units themselves are not identical. Always quote your engine code — found on your V5 logbook or via a VIN check — when requesting a quote from a breaker, as this is more reliable than quoting fuel type alone. Matching by engine code gives the breaker the best chance of supplying a unit that is directly compatible with your gearbox.

Trim level — whether your van is a basic panel van, Tekna, or another specification — does not affect the mechanical fitment of the gear stick, as this part follows the gearbox and engine code rather than the trim grade. You may find minor cosmetic differences such as a different gear knob finish or gaiter material between trim levels, but the underlying gear stick mechanism should interchange between trims with the same gearbox. Tell the breaker your engine code and gearbox type and they will identify the right part regardless of trim.

The Combi (passenger-carrying) and panel van variants of the NV200 share the same basic platform, drivetrain, and gearbox, so body style does not affect gear stick fitment. What matters is that both vehicles share the same engine code and gearbox type, so quote these details to the breaker rather than worrying about which body style the donor vehicle came from. As always, confirm directly with the breaker against your registration to be certain the specific unit they have is a match.

The 2013 facelift sits between those two years, meaning a 2011 donor van is pre-facelift and your 2014 vehicle is post-facelift, and there is a possibility that mounting points or ancillary fittings changed across that boundary. The core gear stick mechanism may be similar if the engine and gearbox codes match, but you should not assume a straight swap without checking. Give the breaker both registration numbers or both engine codes and ask them to confirm compatibility before purchasing, as they will be best placed to identify whether any revision affects this specific part.
