Fitment questions
Do Nissan Primastar CV joints exist, or is it front-wheel drive only?
The Primastar is a front-wheel-drive van, so it does have CV joints — they sit on the front driveshafts and transfer drive from the gearbox to the front wheels. There is no rear-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive variant of the Primastar, so there are no rear CV joints or propshaft CV joints on this model. If you need a CV joint for this vehicle, you are looking for a front driveshaft CV joint, either nearside (NS, left) or offside (OS, right).
Will a CV joint from a 2004 Primastar fit a 2008 Primastar?
The Nissan Primastar was sold in one main generation covering roughly 2002 to 2014, so a 2004 and a 2008 are both within that same generation. However, the driveshaft and CV joint fitted can vary depending on engine size and the van's GVW or payload rating, so the year alone does not guarantee a match. Always confirm the engine size and check the plate on your van for the GVW rating before ordering, and verify the part number with the breaker against your registration.
Does engine size affect which CV joint a Primastar needs?
Yes, engine size can influence the driveshaft and CV joint specification on the Primastar, as heavier-duty running gear is sometimes fitted to higher-output or higher-GVW variants. The Primastar was available with 1.9 and 2.0 litre diesel engines, and these can carry different driveshaft assemblies. Tell the breaker your exact engine size as well as your van's payload or GVW rating so they can match the correct part.
Does the trim level — for example Comfort or Sport — change which CV joint I need?
No, trim level does not affect which CV joint fits the Primastar — the CV joint is part of the drivetrain, not the interior or cosmetic specification. What matters is the engine size, GVW rating, and which side (NS or OS) you need. Give the breaker your registration and they can confirm the correct part from the original specification rather than the trim name.
Does the payload or GVW rating on the plate affect which CV joint I need?
Yes, on vans like the Primastar the payload and GVW rating can affect the driveshaft specification, so it is worth checking the plate on your van rather than relying solely on the model name. Different GVW variants may have been fitted with different driveshafts and CV joint sizes. Always pass your GVW figure along with your registration to the breaker to avoid ordering an incompatible part.
NS or OS — does it matter which side CV joint I order for my Primastar?
Yes, it matters — the nearside (NS, left, kerb side) and offside (OS, right, driver's side) CV joints on the Primastar are handed and are not interchangeable. The driveshafts can also differ in length between the two sides on front-wheel-drive vans, so make sure you specify exactly which side you need when contacting a breaker. Double-check by confirming the side with your registration details to avoid receiving the wrong part.
