Reliable and comfortable vehicles of the Japanese company Nissan are distributed all over the world - from America to Europe and Asian countries. Today car parts for Nissan vehicles are in good demand among car enthusiasts, and on many sites of suppliers you can find various options, in any price category - and this applies to both original and analog products. However, should you favor alternative parts?
How to choose Nissan parts
You can choose parts for Nissan on your own, and with the help of a specialist who works with cars of this brand. You can also go to an official service center, which is much more profitable, because you can be sure of the quality of the services provided.
But it should be taken into account that Nissan has older models, for which it is now difficult to find spare parts, especially original ones (they are produced in limited quantities).
In this case, the situation is saved by analog elements, which, all the same, in many ways inferior to the original. If the Nissan model is one of the new ones, then there will be no problems with the search for parts, because the official manufacturer produces component parts in large quantities - this is due to the fact that the demand is higher.
How to pick up a spare part by car brand and model
It is difficult to independently select a part only with the help of the information on the make and model. More specific data and an understanding of the technical characteristics of the Nissan car are needed. If the car owner has difficulties in this matter, it is possible to turn to:
- to a craftsman who has experience in interacting with Nissan;
- to the service center;
- to the technical support on the manufacturer's official website.
In this way, the selection of spare parts will be precisely performed correctly.
How to find out the number (code) of a Nissan part?
You can get everything you need from the vehicle data sheet, but if you don't have access to it, and you need to know the part number (17-digit number) for Nissan right now, you can find the VIN:
- on the bottom of the windshield;
- on the floor covering (often located under the driver's seat);
- on the cylinder block or engine;
- on the hood on the inside;
- In the luggage compartment.
What can be found out with the help of VIN-code?
The VIN is a combination of 17 letters and numbers. Each digit and letter indicates the indicators of a particular parameter. You may disassemble this combination on your own (with the help of additional resources) or apply to a workshop.
The VIN code simplifies the task of spare parts selection, because it excludes errors and inaccuracies. This number allows you to easily find the right part among the variety of goods.
The part can be even analog, if the manufacturer has a license from the auto plant for the production of spare parts, which certainly will not negatively affect the budget of a Nissan owner.
Figuring out what information can be obtained from the VIN number, it is possible to distinguish the main information:
- body type;
- engine data;
- location of the plant where the vehicle was produced;
- year of manufacture;
- how many times the documents were re-issued to the owner;
- whether the car was in an accident;
- Whether the car was overhauled;
- What is the real mileage.
What parts are better: analog or original?
Despite the fact that original parts are objectively better, many Nissan car owners continue to give preference to analog parts - mainly because of their attractive price.
However, here we should take into account the fact that price does not equal quality, so the service life of analogs is much shorter than that of branded components. Thus, the car will have to be repaired much more often.
You should also understand that analog manufacturers, unlike the brand, do not take into account the design and technical features of the vehicle.
How to distinguish between original Nissan parts and analog parts?
Basic differences between branded and Nissan alternative parts:
1. The original manufacturer has the Nissan brand name on the box, while the copy products will have plain packaging.
2. The analogs do not have a warranty sheet.
3. The original part is more likely to fit the car, because the manufacturer takes into account the model features. In the analog version there can be a mistake, the selection of an element takes longer.
The analog products have an attractive price, but you should understand that the replacement part will be replaced several times more often.
What is an OEM number?
OEM stands for "Original Equipment Manufacturer", which indicates the manufacturer of the original equipment. Thus, such a code is displayed on those products that are made by the Nissan brand manufacturer.
