OEM Engine Cover Nut for 2001-2004 Nissan Pathfinder models equipped with the VQ35DE powertrain. 

The Engine Cover Nut is a small component used to secure the engine cover or engine shroud in place. It is typically made of metal or plastic and is designed to withstand the engine's operating conditions. However, there are some situations where the engine cover nut may need to be replaced.

Here are some signs that the engine cover nut may need to be replaced:

• Stripped or damaged threads: If the nut becomes stripped or the threads are damaged, it may not be able to securely fasten the engine cover. This can result in the cover becoming loose or detached, potentially causing noise, vibration, or damage to the engine components.
• Missing or loose nut: If the engine cover nut is missing or consistently becomes loose, it may need to be replaced. A loose or missing nut can allow debris, dirt, or water to enter the engine compartment, potentially leading to damage or poor engine performance.
• Visible damage: If the engine cover nut appears cracked, broken, or damaged, it should be replaced. Physical damage can compromise its ability to securely fasten the engine cover.
