2013 Nissan Murano Engine Parts

5yo Murano, pan already rusted through and leaking. Several national chain stores list same part; NSP24A(not Dorman) which has a depth of 2" and is too shallow. It hits the pickup tube before mating with the engine. Dorman pn 264-465 (which i only found because it was recommended by a nissan owning parts store employee) has a depth of 2.4" give or take and mated right up and visually was closer to the original oem pan than the other one I tried. However, it was not easy to find! I got it from carid next day even though it was due 3 to 10 days out and it was a very competitive price, even with shipping. FYI, the dealer wants around $250 for this pan. You can get a high capacity aluminum race pan for less. If you live in New England you may want to put additional rust proofing on the front side since its in the path of snow and road salt in the winter. I am using new stainless fasteners (m6x1.0 roughly 18mm of threads with lock washer) and the bolts are too far apart for a gasket, it may blow out. Use oil resistant rtv also, the original oil plug is better than the one provided.
