Genuine Nissan Auto Drive Plate - Nissan Patrol Y61 GU ZD30

This automatic drive plate, also known as a flex plate, is fitted between the engine crankshaft and the automatic transmission's torque converter. It is a common failure point on ZD30 engines, where the plate can develop cracks around the central mounting hub. This often results in a distinct ticking or rattling noise from the bell housing area, which can easily be mistaken for a major engine failure. If not replaced, a cracked drive plate will eventually fail completely, causing a total loss of drive and potentially damaging the transmission input or the rear of the engine.
