Fitment questions
Will a cylinder head from a 2015 Nissan NV400 fit my 2013 model?
Both the 2013 and 2015 NV400 fall within the same generation (the NV400 launched in the UK in 2011 and shares its platform and engine family throughout), so the engine code is your key check — if the codes match, fitment is likely compatible. However, there can be ancillary and mounting changes at various points within a production run, so confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before buying. Never assume fitment without that check.
Does the cylinder head change between the pre-facelift and post-facelift NV400?
The NV400 received a facelift around 2014, and while the core engine architecture was carried over, there may be detail differences in the cylinder head or its ancillaries across that boundary. Name the facelift year to your breaker and give them your engine code from the V5 or a VIN check, as that is the most reliable way to confirm whether a head from the other side of the 2014 boundary will suit your van. Routing this cross-boundary question to the breaker is strongly advised.
Does the trim level — such as SE, SE Sport, or Tekna — affect which cylinder head I need?
No — trim level has no bearing on cylinder head fitment for the NV400; the head follows the engine, not the badge or specification level. An SE and a Tekna with the same engine code will use the same cylinder head, so do not let trim level guide your search. Focus entirely on matching the engine code, fuel type, and year.
I have a 2.3 dCi NV400 — will any 2.3 dCi head fit it?
The 2.3 dCi engine family covers the NV400 range, but there are different variants and states of tune within that family, each potentially carrying a different engine code. Supply your exact engine code — found on your V5 or via a VIN check — to the breaker, as this is the single most important detail for matching a used cylinder head correctly. Do not rely on the 2.3 dCi badge alone to confirm compatibility.
Does it matter whether my NV400 is a manual or automatic when buying a used cylinder head?
Gearbox type does not directly determine which cylinder head is fitted, as the head is matched to the engine rather than the transmission. That said, always confirm your engine code with the breaker, since different drivetrain configurations can sometimes correspond to different engine variants or tune levels that affect the head specification. Your engine code remains the safest starting point.
Can I use a cylinder head from a Renault Master or Vauxhall Movano on my NV400?
The NV400, Renault Master, and Vauxhall Movano are closely related vehicles sharing the same platform and engine family, so cylinder heads can potentially interchange where engine codes match. However, ancillary fittings, sensor positions, and other mounting details can vary between manufacturers or model years, so confirm compatibility with the breaker against both registrations before purchasing. Matching engine codes is the essential first step.
