Fitment questions
Does the Nissan Pathfinder have a radiator fan, and will I find one from a breaker?
Yes, the Nissan Pathfinder does have a radiator fan — most variants use an engine-driven mechanical fan or an electric fan depending on the generation and engine fitted, so the part genuinely exists across the model range. UK breakers regularly strip Pathfinders, so sourcing a used radiator fan is realistic. Give the breaker your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) to make sure you get the right unit.
Will a radiator fan from a first-generation Pathfinder (R50, 1996–2004) fit a second-generation (R51, 2005–2014)?
The R50 (1996–2004) and R51 (2005–2014) are completely different platforms with different engines, so a radiator fan from an R50 will not cross to an R51. These generations should be treated as entirely separate when sourcing parts. Always tell the breaker which generation you have along with your engine code.
Do Nissan Pathfinder R51 radiator fans differ between the 2.5 dCi diesel and the 4.0 V6 petrol?
Yes, the engine is the single most important factor here — the 2.5 dCi diesel and the 4.0 V6 petrol are very different units with different cooling demands, so their fans and fan assemblies are not interchangeable. Always quote your engine code to the breaker rather than just saying 'diesel' or 'petrol', as this removes any ambiguity. Your engine code will be on your V5 logbook or can be confirmed through a VIN check.
Does it matter whether my R51 Pathfinder is an automatic or manual gearbox when buying a radiator fan?
Gearbox type is less critical for the radiator fan than the engine code is, but automatic-gearbox vehicles can have additional transmission oil cooling requirements that may affect the fan or fan shroud setup. It is worth mentioning your gearbox type to the breaker so they can confirm the assembly they have matches your setup. The engine code remains the single most useful detail to supply.
I have a Pathfinder Aventura — does the trim level affect which radiator fan I need?
No, trim level does not affect radiator fan fitment — the Aventura, Tekna, SE, and any other trim all use the same fan for a given engine. What matters is your engine code, not the badge on the tailgate. You may find minor ancillary or shroud differences depending on production date, so confirm against your registration with the breaker to be certain the unit they have matches yours.
Will a radiator fan from a 2009 R51 Pathfinder fit a 2013 R51 — does the 2010 facelift make a difference?
The R51 Pathfinder received a facelift around 2010, and while the core engine codes carried over, ancillary and mounting details can change mid-production, meaning a fan from a pre-facelift 2009 car may or may not suit a post-facelift 2013 car. Rather than assuming it crosses, route this to the breaker and confirm against your specific registration, as they can check the part numbers directly. Engine code plus your reg is the fastest way to get a definitive answer.
