Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, compare the vehicle application with the original evaporator core and check the part number EVX551, because the listed fitment is specific to Nissan Pathfinder R50 3.3L and Nissan Patrol Y61 GU petrol and diesel variants within the stated date ranges. The pad inlet and pad outlet arrangement is just as important as the dimensions, because a core can be similar in size but still differ at the connections.

The physical size matters when replacing an evaporator core. This unit is 265mm long, 235mm high and 74mm thick, with a weight of 2.04kg. Those dimensions are useful when comparing against the removed part, the heater box opening, and the available space behind the dash.

The one year warranty applies to the part as supplied, but warranty cover does not replace the need to verify fitment. A careful check of the vehicle model, engine, build period, fittings, and part number is the best way to avoid a mismatch and an unnecessary strip-down.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number EVX551 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

For a air conditioning evaporator core in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include NISSAN PATHFINDER, NISSAN PATHFINDER 1995, NISSAN PATHFINDER 1996, NISSAN PATHFINDER 1997. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

The listed warranty is One Year. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.

Compatibility note: Please confirm compatibility with the part number EVX551, the pad-to-pad fitting style, and the stated Nissan Pathfinder R50 and Patrol Y61 application details before ordering. If the original unit, TX valve references, or connection layout differ, the part may not be suitable.
