- Creates a seal between the engine valves and the outside world
- Helps keep oil in and contaminants out
- Replace when damaged or leaking oil
The Engine Valve Cover Gasket under the hood of your Nissan creates a tight seal between your engine's valves and the outside world to keep oil in and pollutants out. Your vehicle's original Engine Valve Cover Gasket may shrink or crack as it ages, which creates a compromised seal as well as oil leaks that can easily make a mess under the hood.
A worn-out Engine Valve Cover Gasket tends to cause an unpleasant burning oil smell that you can detect from the interior of your Nissan, and the resulting motor oil leaks may put your engine under unnecessary stress. If you find yourself needing to refill your motor oil more frequently than usual, or your vehicle's indicator light is showing low oil levels more often than not, it's likely time to install a new replacement Engine Valve Cover Gasket in your Nissan.
It's best not to procrastinate on repairs when you have an old Engine Valve Cover Gasket. Variable motor oil levels may severely hamper your engine's long-term health and can even cause premature wear to the valves if not addressed quickly. Seeing oil splotches below your usual parking spot? Head to your nearest Nissan authorized service center to determine if a damaged Engine Valve Cover Gasket could be to blame and to have a replacement one installed.
Quick, proactive engine repair is vital if you'd like to maintain your Nissan for years to come. Give your Nissan engine the best chance at longevity with high-quality Nissan parts, such as a new Engine Valve Cover Gasket. Enjoy peace of mind and a custom fit when you purchase OEM parts from Nissan online.
