Since the parts fiche seems to be missing or not working for me, can anyone confirm that the rear main seal is the same throughout all years/trims? Should be PN 12279 D0100

100 % I have ALWAYS ordered my rear seals only from Nissan.

Don't let someone have you pick up the dorman or the cheaper one for this.

ordering single parts isn't really an option from courtesy. The shipping costs far outweigh the price difference over ordering it locally.

I call them every time to ship usps. Will be $10 max for you

Regardless, if anyone can confirm the part number, that'd be super [archived image: rolleyes.png]

Not sure if all Nissan sites are like this but my local dealer has a great online parts catalog.
Here's the rear main, says all years:

Stellar, thanks!

Same or not, all VG rear main seals interchange with all year VGs, DOHC or SOHC. They also interchange with the SR20, VH45, VK45, VK41, VK56, CA18, CA20, RBs........

Sounds like someone at nissan has their thinking cap on.

No reason to re-invent the wheel…or in this case, the rear main seal..I suppose. lol
