Which Interstar Engine Code Does Your Vehicle Use?
These are the Interstar engine codes our network matches for the tested used engine route, where a low-mileage original is compression and leak tested before it is offered. Your registration confirms the exact variant before quoting.
For an Interstar the M9T 880 is the engine our network matches most often, and its injector coding is exactly why a donor’s provenance must be checked before money changes hands. The engine codes, capacities and power figures above reflect Nissan UK’s published specifications, and the VRM lookup confirms which code your donor must carry.
