This is a Genuine Nissan clutch bearing carrier, designed for the Nissan Navara D23 NP300 diesel models. Located inside the gearbox bell housing, this carrier is responsible for holding and guiding the clutch release bearing, making it a crucial component for smooth clutch operation. It is specifically designed for the 2.3L diesel engine and is not suitable for petrol models. Over time, the original cast metal carrier can wear, develop grooves from the clutch fork, or even crack due to constant pressure, leading to a poor clutch feel or difficulty changing gears.
Replacing a worn carrier is a critical step when performing a clutch replacement. Failure to do so can cause the new release bearing to jam or fail prematurely, resulting in another expensive gearbox removal. Installing a new genuine Nissan carrier ensures the entire clutch system functions correctly, restoring a positive clutch feel and guaranteeing long-term reliability for your Navara.
DOES NOT SUIT PETROL ENGINES
Replacement of the clutch bearing carrier is a major workshop job that requires removal of the gearbox for access. This task is best left to an experienced mechanic. As this part is almost always replaced during a clutch change, you will also typically require a new clutch kit, release bearing, spigot bearing, and fresh gearbox oil to complete the job correctly.
