This is a Genuine Nissan exhaust manifold stud, designed to secure the exhaust manifold directly to the cylinder head on Nissan Navara D22, D40, and Pathfinder R51 models equipped with the YD25DDTI engine. Please note, these are high-tensile steel studs sold individually, and a total of eight are required to mount the manifold to the cylinder head.
Due to constant exposure to extreme heat cycles and the elements, the original studs can corrode, stretch, or snap over time. A failed stud will cause an exhaust leak, which often presents as a distinct ticking noise from the engine bay (especially when cold), a smell of exhaust fumes in the cabin, or a noticeable reduction in engine performance and fuel economy.
Replacement difficulty can vary. It is a straightforward job if the old stud can be easily unthreaded, but becomes much more difficult if a stud has broken flush with the cylinder head, which may require specialist extraction tools. It is highly recommended to replace the exhaust manifold gasket when replacing these studs. For a complete and reliable repair, we advise replacing all eight studs and nuts at the same time to ensure even clamping pressure across the manifold.
