Against the 2023 Altima: the two manuals do not print the same part types, so there is nothing to compare line by line.

Against the 2025 Altima: the two manuals do not print the same part types, so there is nothing to compare line by line.

Shared with other 2024 models

W21/5W (rear stop/tail): 1 other 2024 model lists it, including Nissan Sentra.
W21W (rear turn): 3 other 2024 models list it, including Chevrolet Trax, Nissan Frontier, Nissan Rogue.
W5W (rear side marker and backup assembly tail): 18 other 2024 models list it, including Ford F-150, Ford Transit, Hyundai Tucson, Kia Carnival, Kia Forte, Kia Niro.
921 (backup (reversing)): 1 other 2024 model lists it, including Toyota Camry.

A shared number means the same replacement part fits both cars, so one spare can cover two cars in the household.

What the manual does not print

The 2024 Nissan Altima owner's manual does not list wipers, battery, filters and oil sizes; for the battery, read the label on the battery fitted to the car, then check the size against the BCI group chart; for wipers, measure each blade end to end and buy the nearest whole-inch size.

Buying the parts for a 2024 Altima

Small bulbs: this manual names 5 replaceable bulb positions. Wedge bulbs such as W5W and 194 differ from twist-socket bulbs such as 7443 or 3157, so match the full number, including suffixes like NA (amber).
