NISSAN NAVARA, PATHFINDER V6 VQ40 STEEL HEADER GASKET (2) for selected vehicle applications.
Category: Extractors and headers


The Exhaust Systems Australia NISSAN-NAVARA-PATHFINDER-V6-VQ40-STEEL-HEADER-GASKET-2 is a steel header gasket listed to fit the Nissan Navara and Pathfinder with the VQ40 V6.
A header gasket seals the joint between the cylinder head's exhaust ports and the extractor or manifold flange, holding that seal through constant heat cycling. Steel is used here so it lasts under exhaust temperatures. It's a service and fitment part, not a performance one — its job is simply to stop exhaust leaking where the manifold bolts to the head of the VQ40 V6.
It's listed to fit the Nissan Navara and Pathfinder running the VQ40 V6 — the same petrol six across both badges. Because a header gasket only seals correctly if the port pattern matches exactly, confirm your specific head and manifold arrangement with the workshop before ordering. A V6 has a bank each side, so check how many your job needs.
A header gasket is renewed whenever the extractors or manifold come off the VQ40 — during an extractor fit, a head job, or to fix a blowing leak at the port face. Refitting an old gasket onto a disturbed joint is a common cause of a leak returning, so a fresh one is sensible any time that flange is opened up.
Oak Flats Muffler Men fits header gaskets like this as part of extractor and manifold work across the Illawarra. We clean the faces, check the flange for distortion and torque the fasteners evenly so the seal holds. At a recommended retail of $25.50 it's usually fitted alongside a larger job. Send your details and we'll confirm it matches your VQ40 V6.
