This is a genuine Nissan front brake caliper shim kit designed for the Nissan Navara D40 and Pathfinder R51 models equipped with the V9X 3.0L V6 turbo diesel engine. The kit is installed in the front brake calipers, with the shims sitting between the brake pad backing plate and the caliper piston. Their primary role is to dampen high-frequency vibrations, which are the main cause of brake squeal.
This complete kit contains all the required anti-squeal shims and pad retainer plates to service both front calipers. If your existing shims are corroded, damaged, or were misplaced during a previous brake service, this kit is essential for ensuring quiet, smooth, and effective braking performance. Using genuine Nissan shims guarantees the correct material composition and fitment needed to eliminate noise and vibration.
Installation of this shim kit is done as part of a front brake pad replacement. For a confident DIY mechanic, this is a job of moderate difficulty. For a complete brake service, you will also need new front brake pads. It is also a good opportunity to inspect your brake rotors for wear and replace your brake fluid if it is due.
Please check vehicle fitment to confirm compatibility with your vehicle. Please contact us with your VIN details if you require further assistance to confirm fitment.
