Buying Ignition Parts for a 2012 Nissan Pathfinder
On this vehicle, the ignition system delivers spark at the right moment — plugs, coils, wires, distributors and ignition modules.
- Match the engine first. Some ignition parts fit every engine; others are engine-specific. Each row shows which engine(s) it fits.
- Read the notes on each row for position, trim and spec qualifiers before you order.
- Where labor overlaps, replace plugs and wires (or coil boots) as a set — one weak cylinder makes the whole set feel bad.
- Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against your old part or a service-manual listing.

What do the market flags (US, CA, MX) on each part mean?
They show the market for which the manufacturer published application data for that part — where the vehicle was first sold, not where the part was made. If your 2012 Nissan Pathfinder was originally sold in the US, the safest choice is a part marked for the US market.
How do I make sure a part fits my 2012 Nissan Pathfinder?
