This genuine Nissan input shaft seal is fitted to back of the front cover on the manual gearbox, sealing the point where the input shaft enters the transmission from the clutch assembly. This seal is essential for preventing gearbox oil from leaking out of the front of the transmission. Over time, heat cycles and constant rotation can cause the original seal to become hard, brittle, and worn, leading to leaks. It is a critical component to replace when servicing the clutch or if any oil leakage is noticed around the bell housing area.
Ignoring a leaking input shaft seal can lead to serious and expensive consequences. The leaking oil can contaminate the clutch friction plate, causing it to slip, shudder, and ultimately fail, requiring a complete clutch replacement. Furthermore, the progressive loss of gearbox oil will lead to inadequate lubrication of internal gears and bearings, causing accelerated wear, overheating, and potentially catastrophic failure of the entire gearbox.
