This is the genuine Nissan left-hand (driver's side in our right-hand drive vehicles) cam timing chain tensioner. It's a crucial component located within the engine, responsible for maintaining correct tension on the timing chain. These tensioners can wear and fail, causing timing chain slack.
Without proper tension, your timing chain can skip a tooth, leading to serious engine damage, poor performance, and potentially a hefty repair bill.
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.
Choosing genuine Nissan parts ensures the quality and fit for your Nissan. Unlike some aftermarket alternatives, genuine Nissan parts are manufactured to exacting standards, using materials specifically designed to withstand the rigours of Australian conditions. Using an inferior, non-genuine tensioner creates a significant risk of premature failure, which can cause the timing chain to slip and lead to catastrophic engine damage far more costly than the initial saving.
