Fitment on a used lambda sensor varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
The Nissan NV300 is powered exclusively by diesel engines, and diesel engines do not use lambda sensors in the same way petrol engines do — they rely on different exhaust gas management systems including a DPF and EGR. If your NV300 has a fault code related to exhaust gas measurement, you are most likely looking for a NOx sensor, an EGR valve, or a DPF pressure sensor rather than a lambda sensor. Confirm the exact sensor required with a mechanic or breaker against your registration number.
Almost certainly, yes — the NV300 is a diesel-only van and does not use a traditional lambda (oxygen) sensor as found on petrol vehicles. Diagnostic equipment sometimes uses the term loosely, and the part you actually need is more likely a NOx sensor, an exhaust pressure sensor, or something connected to the DPF or EGR system. Take your fault code to a diesel specialist or ask a breaker to cross-reference it against your registration before ordering anything.
The NV300's diesel exhaust system uses sensors suited to compression-ignition technology, including NOx sensors, DPF differential pressure sensors, and temperature sensors, none of which are lambda sensors. These sensors are emissions-era sensitive, so a part from the wrong Euro standard generation may not fit correctly or could cause an MOT failure even if it physically connects. Always confirm the correct part with a breaker quoting your exact registration, as Euro 5 and Euro 6 variants of the NV300 use different exhaust management hardware.
Yes — breakers and parts catalogues may list related diesel exhaust sensors under names like NOx sensor, oxygen sensor (used loosely), exhaust gas sensor, or DPF sensor depending on their system. When contacting a breaker through Findapart, give them your registration and the exact fault code rather than asking for a lambda sensor by name, as this will help them identify the correct part for your specific engine and emissions spec. This avoids receiving the wrong part or one from an incompatible emissions era.
