Which 350Z Engine Code Does Your Vehicle Use?
These are the 350Z engine codes our network matches for the reconditioned engine route, where the block is stripped and reconditioned to specification. Your registration confirms the exact variant before quoting.
On a 350Z the VQ35DE is the engine our network matches most often, and its gallery gasket failure is exactly why a full recondition — not a surface patch — is the route worth taking. The engine codes, capacities and power figures above reflect Nissan UK’s published specifications, and the VRM lookup confirms which code your reconditioning needs.
| Engine Family | Engine Code | Capacity | Fuel | Power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| VQ petrol | VQ35DE | 3.5L | V6 Petrol | 276 hp |
| VQ petrol | VQ35HR | 3.5L | V6 Petrol | 309 hp |

Questions answered clearly
Frequently Asked Questions
How is a reconditioned 350Z engine reconditioned given oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE? +
A reconditioned Nissan 350Z engine is stripped to the bare block, hot-tank cleaned and machined, then reconditioned with a new oil gallery gasket and a checked top end before a pressure and leak test. Because oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE starves the top end of oil, the reconditioning replaces the gasket and checks the cams it starved rather than re-using worn parts.
Is a reconditioned 350Z engine worth it when oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE has happened? +
For a Nissan 350Z whose body is still sound, a reconditioned engine with six to twelve months of workshop warranty costs less than another vehicle and fixes oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE properly. It suits owners who plan to keep the vehicle for years rather than inherit the same fault.
Can I hand back my 350Z engine affected by oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE as a part-exchange? +
Most workshops accept your failed Nissan 350Z engine as a returnable core, with the credit confirmed in writing before you commit. If the block has been scored beyond repair by oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE, the quote explains the disposal route so the final price stays transparent.
How do I book a reconditioned 350Z quote for oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE? +
Enter your registration, choose the reconditioned route and the network sends written quotes matched to your Nissan 350Z's exact code, so the price reflects oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE. The request takes under a minute and carries no obligation.
Will you collect my 350Z that has stopped with oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE for the reconditioning? +
Yes — nationwide recovery is included with the reconditioned supply & fit route, so a Nissan 350Z stopped by oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE is collected from your home and returned once the reconditioned engine is in and running. For a reconditioned 350Z, this matters because oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE is the fault the 3.5-litre V6 petrol is most known for.
What warranty protects a reconditioned 350Z engine reconditioned after oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE? +
Every reconditioned Nissan 350Z engine carries six to twelve months of workshop warranty, with the full terms set out in writing before any deposit. That written cover is what separates a properly reconditioned engine from a patch-up after oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE.
How much does a reconditioned 350Z engine cost after oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE? +
The price is never flat because the block must be measured for the damage left by oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE and the fitting labour varies. Share your registration and the workshops quote the actual job against your Nissan 350Z rather than a generic figure.
How long does fitting a reconditioned 350Z engine take after oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE? +
A reconditioned Nissan 350Z is typically turned around in three to five working days from match to handover, with recovery, the reconditioning that cures oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE and the final health check all coordinated by one point of contact. For a reconditioned 350Z, this matters because oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE is the fault the 3.5-litre V6 petrol is most known for.
What paperwork accompanies a reconditioned 350Z engine cured of oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE? +
You receive the engine inspection record, the warranty certificate and the fitting paperwork together, so the reconditioning that cured oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE is fully documented for your insurer and any future buyer. This is specific to the Nissan 350Z, so the quote reflects your exact vehicle.
Will the reconditioned engine match my exact 350Z variant after oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE? +
Yes — the VRM lookup confirms your Nissan 350Z's exact engine code and variant before a single engine is offered, which prevents fitment errors and means the quote reflects your vehicle rather than a close-enough guess after oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE. For a reconditioned 350Z, this matters because oil gallery gasket failure on the VQ35DE is the fault the 3.5-litre V6 petrol is most known for.
