Second Hand Nissan NV200 Water Pump

Yes, the Nissan NV200 is fitted with a water pump on all its internal combustion engine variants — the 1.5 dCi diesel and the 1.6 petrol — so you will find them at breakers. Electric e-NV200 variants do not use a conventional engine-driven water pump as they have no combustion engine, so if you have an e-NV200 you are looking for a different type of cooling component entirely. Make sure you know whether your van is a standard NV200 or the electric e-NV200 before requesting quotes.

The Nissan NV200 was introduced in the UK around 2010 and received a facelift in 2013, running through to the end of UK sales, so year can matter when sourcing mechanical parts. The water pump follows the engine code above everything else, so the most reliable approach is to match the engine code from your V5 or a VIN check rather than relying on the year alone. Name the boundary (pre- or post-2013 facelift) to your breaker and ask them to confirm the pump matches your specific engine code before purchasing.

Trim level has no effect on water pump fitment — the pump is determined by the engine, not whether your van is an SE, Acenta, or any other specification. What matters is your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check), your fuel type (1.5 dCi diesel or 1.6 petrol), and the year of manufacture. Tell your breaker the engine code and they can match the correct pump regardless of trim.

In general, water pumps on the NV200 follow the engine code, and if the engine codes match the pump is likely to be compatible — but ancillary and mounting details can change across production runs and the 2013 facelift boundary. Always give your breaker the full engine code from your V5 or a VIN check and ask them to cross-reference it against the donor vehicle before buying. This is the single most reliable way to confirm fitment on a used part.

A 2012 van is a pre-facelift model, while a 2014 van falls into the post-2013 facelift generation, which means there is a production boundary between them that could affect ancillary components like the water pump. If both vehicles share the same engine code the pump design may well be the same, but you should not assume this — confirm with your breaker against both registration numbers before committing. Supplying your engine code (from the V5) to the breaker is the most useful thing you can do to get a reliable answer.

No — the 1.6 petrol and 1.5 dCi diesel engines in the NV200 are entirely different units and their water pumps are not interchangeable. Always specify your fuel type as well as your engine code when requesting quotes from a breaker. Mixing petrol and diesel cooling components will result in an incorrectly fitting or non-functioning pump.
