Genuine Nissan First Intercooler Hose (Closest to Turbo) V9X - Nissan Navara D40

This Genuine Nissan intercooler hose is a direct replacement for the Nissan Navara D40 and Pathfinder R51 fitted with the V9X 3.0L V6 turbo diesel engine. It is the first hose in the system, connecting the high-temperature outlet of the turbocharger directly to the intercooler piping. This component is critical for channelling pressurised air from the turbo, maintaining correct boost levels and engine performance.

Subjected to constant high heat and pressure cycles, the original rubber hose is prone to cracking, splitting, and becoming brittle over time, leading to boost leaks. Symptoms of a failing hose include a noticeable loss of power, increased exhaust smoke, an audible hissing or whistling sound under acceleration, and visible oil residue or cracks on the hose itself.

Product Features

• Genuine Nissan Part: Guarantees a perfect fit and is manufactured to Nissan's strict OEM standards for material quality and durability. Cheaper aftermarket hoses often use inferior materials that fail prematurely under pressure.
• High-Pressure & Temperature Rated: Engineered to reliably withstand the demanding conditions of the 'hot side' of the turbo system without swelling or failing.
• Direct-Fit Installation: Designed as a direct swap for the original factory hose, ensuring a secure, leak-free connection with no modifications needed.
• Restores Engine Performance: Replacing a leaking intercooler hose restores lost boost pressure, returning power, throttle response, and fuel efficiency to factory levels.

Installation Notes

Replacement is a straightforward job for a competent DIY mechanic using basic hand tools, such as a socket set or screwdrivers to loosen the hose clamps. Access can be tight, so patience is key. While replacing this hose, it is highly recommended to inspect all other intercooler and intake hoses for signs of wear. You should also check the condition of the hose clamps and replace them if they show signs of corrosion or damage to ensure a secure seal.
