Second Hand Nissan Pulsar Engine Mount

The Nissan Pulsar (N16 generation, sold in the UK from 2014 to 2018) does have engine mounts, but fitment depends heavily on which engine you have rather than the year alone. The engine code is the single most useful detail — check your V5 or run a VIN check before ordering. Whether mounts interchange between earlier and later build years within the generation is something you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration, as mounting arrangements can change mid-production.

Not necessarily — even if both are 1.2-litre petrol units, the HRA2DDT turbocharged DIG-T engine has different ancillary and mounting arrangements compared to a naturally aspirated 1.2, and the mounts are unlikely to interchange. Always quote your exact engine code to the breaker rather than just the displacement. Supplying the engine code from your V5 or a VIN check is the best way to make sure you get the correct mount.

No — trim level (whether Visia, Acenta, N-Sport, or Tekna) has no bearing on which engine mount you need. Engine mounts follow the engine code and gearbox type, not the badge on the back of the car. Focus on matching the engine code and whether the car is manual or automatic, and the trim is irrelevant from a fitment perspective.

Yes, fuel type matters because the diesel 1.5 dCi (engine code K9K) and the petrol engines are mechanically quite different, and their engine mounts are not interchangeable. Always tell the breaker your fuel type and engine code, not just the year, to avoid getting the wrong mount. A VIN check or your V5 will confirm the exact engine code if you are unsure.

Gearbox type can affect which engine mount is correct, as the mounting arrangement may differ between manual and automatic (CVT) variants. It is worth being upfront with the breaker about whether your car is manual or automatic alongside the engine code. Do not assume a mount from a manual car will drop straight in on a CVT-equipped Pulsar without checking first.

If the engine code is genuinely identical, that is a strong starting point, but whether mounts remained unchanged across the full 2014–2018 production run is not something that can be guaranteed from the outside. Mid-production ancillary and mounting changes do happen, so confirm with the breaker by supplying your registration alongside the engine code before committing to a purchase. A good breaker will cross-reference both vehicles to give you the most accurate answer.
