Maintain accurate engine timing and reliable timing gear operation with this Genuine Nissan Timing Idler Gear, designed for Nissan Patrol models fitted with the TD42 diesel engine. This OEM timing component forms part of the engine's timing gear system and works with the other timing components to maintain the correct relationship between the engine's internal components.
