Fitment questions
Does the Nissan Primera have a transfer box?
No — the Nissan Primera was a front-wheel-drive car throughout its entire production life, and front-wheel-drive vehicles do not have a transfer box. A transfer box is a component found on four-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive vehicles to split drive between front and rear axles, and the Primera never offered that drivetrain. If you think you need a transfer box, it is worth double-checking the vehicle — you may have a different Nissan model, or the part you actually need could be the gearbox, differential, or driveshaft.
Could any Nissan Primera variant have come with a transfer box from the factory?
No variant of the Nissan Primera — across the P10 (1990–1996), P11 (1996–2002), or P12 (2002–2008) generations — was offered with four-wheel drive, so none were ever fitted with a transfer box as standard or as an option. This applies to all engine choices, including the 1.6, 2.0 petrol, and 2.0 diesel units, and to all trim levels across all generations. If your V5 or a VIN check shows the vehicle is definitely a Primera, a transfer box is not the part you need.
I've been quoted a transfer box for my Nissan Primera — is that right?
Almost certainly not, as the Primera is a front-wheel-drive-only model and transfer boxes are not part of its drivetrain at any point in its production history. It is possible there has been a misunderstanding about the part name — components sometimes confused with a transfer box on front-wheel-drive cars include the gearbox, the final drive, or a driveshaft. Go back to whoever quoted the part and confirm exactly what is needed, ideally with your registration number and the engine code from your V5.
What part should I actually be looking for instead of a transfer box on my Nissan Primera?
Depending on your symptoms, the part you need is most likely the gearbox (which on the Primera contains the differential and final drive in a single transaxle unit), a driveshaft (also called a CV shaft or half-shaft), or possibly a CV joint. When contacting a breaker, give them your registration, engine code from the V5, and a description of the fault or noise so they can point you to the correct component. A transfer box simply does not exist on this model.
