Second Hand Nissan NV300 Oil Pump

Yes, the Nissan NV300 is fitted with an oil pump on all its engine variants — it is a conventional internal combustion engine van and every version requires one to circulate engine oil. The NV300 was sold in the UK from around 2016 onwards, based on the Renault Trafic platform, and uses diesel engines, all of which have an oil pump as a standard component. Used examples are available from breakers, and quoting your engine code will get you the most accurate match.

The Nissan NV300 received a facelift in 2021, and while the engine family remained closely related across that boundary, whether the oil pump itself is interchangeable between pre-facelift and post-facelift variants is something you should confirm with the breaker against your registration and engine code. The engine code — found on your V5 or via a VIN check — is the single most reliable detail to supply, as the pump follows the engine specification rather than the model year alone. A good breaker will cross-reference both your engine code and the donor vehicle's code before confirming a match.

Trim level makes no difference to oil pump fitment on the NV300 — the pump is determined entirely by the engine code, not by whether the van is SE, SE Sport, or any other specification. All trim grades within the same engine variant share the same internal engine components, so a pump from an SE-spec van will be mechanically identical to one from a higher trim, provided the engine codes match. Ignore trim badges when sourcing this part and focus solely on the engine code.

The engine oil pump itself is internal to the engine and is not changed by whether the van has a manual or automatic gearbox, so gearbox type does not affect fitment for this particular component. However, if the NV300 variant you have uses an automatic or dual-clutch transmission, that gearbox will have its own separate transmission fluid pump, which is an entirely different part — make sure you are clear with the breaker about whether you need the engine oil pump or a gearbox-related pump. Always quote your engine code to confirm you are being matched to the correct engine oil pump.

The Nissan NV300 is mechanically very closely related to the Renault Trafic and Vauxhall Vivaro of the same generation, and the engines are largely shared across these vans, meaning the oil pump may well be the same part. However, whether a specific Trafic pump from a specific year and engine code directly crosses over to your NV300 is something to confirm with the breaker by comparing engine codes from both vehicles rather than relying on the badge. If the engine codes match, a breaker experienced with these vans will be able to confirm compatibility.

The most important detail to provide is your engine code, which you can find on your V5 logbook or by running a VIN check — this matters far more than the year, trim, or body style of your van. Fuel type is also worth confirming, though all UK-market NV300s were diesel, so this is rarely a complication on this model. Supply the breaker with your engine code and the registration, and ask them to confirm the engine code of the donor vehicle before agreeing the sale.
