Rocker Cover Gasket Change

[danielr637]

Hi everyone, this weekend I m going to attempt to change the rocker cover gasket on my 2004 3.0i

Does anyone know of any good videos on how to change one? also any tips would be great.

Thanks

You’ll find lots of videos and how to guides have a search

Be careful of the ccv breather hose they get brittle and snap
Put sealant on the 4 half moons on the new gasket

Ha! I just replied on your spark plug thread and said check the gasket!
To add to Stuart's sound advice: you may find the old gasket is hard and brittle. If any sticks to the top of the head, be sure to block the oilways with rags or paper towels before you start pinging it all off. And do it when the spark plugs are still fitted to stop anything falling into the cylinders.
