UD Engines & Motors

The UD stands for Uniflow Diesel and is a trademark for Nissan Diesel's Uniflow Scavengine Diesel engine. It is marketed under Ultimate Dependability trademark. The Nissan Diesel or UD engines are manufactured in straight, 3 cylinder, 4 cylinder, 5 cylinder, V:8 cylinder, 10 cylinder and 12 cylinder models.

Stay on the job longer

Because of the specialized nature of these commercial purpose 1100 UD series and up, the need for replacement of the engine or transmissions is a highly limited market. Many of the vehicles are acquired through the distributor web site. However, if you own one of these dependable diesel trucks, you can also look for parts such as a used engine or transmission at Automotix. Perhaps you need a new engine for a UD 1400 14' dump body or a 5-speed stick shift transmission for a 16' van. You can search the items on our site for offerings at this level of detail. Once you have located the necessary part you simply order directly from the supplier of the part you need.

No middleman

Automotix has long been the supplier of choice by fleet managers, including commercial fleets. Even if your fleet consists of only one or two UD Nissan trucks, you still need to know that they will not be out of commission for an extended period while you hunt for the right part and wait to have it shipped to a middleman and then on to you with delays at each step and extra charges for shipping and for handling by the intermediaries.

Lowest cost

With truck engines and transmissions, as well as those for your personal vehicle, Automotix guarantees to provide the right part at the lowest cost. The warranty on the truck engines and transmissions is one full year, just as it is on the personal or performance size engines. The same is true of the transmissions, whether it is a five speed or multi-geared diesel heavy duty truck.

We also guarantee that you won't find the same part with equivalent mileage and warranties on a part from our competitors within 90-days, or we will pay you the difference.
