- Hello today I’m going to be showing you how to replace valve covers
Step1- remove air intake
Step2- remove coils
Step3- remove 1 bolt holding intake as instructions given in the video , driver side you have to remove 17mm fuel line
Step4- remove valve cover bolts
Step5-remove valve cover
Step6- remove second part of the valve cover
Step7- clean grooves of valve cover and fill silicone as shown in the video
Step8- should be nice a resealed, reverse these steps for installation! Thanks
Thank you for showing the small cover that has to come off of the main valve cover. That wasn't done in several other videos and I would be pissed to have learned that after the fact!
I just want to add a note for your description. If you would like to add the parts numbers and links to purchase parts would help also.
Thanks for the video
Excellent video! Thanks for making it!
Good morning, thank you for taking the time to record it, will subscribe 😁👍
Comment - I would not use a pry bar in the magnesium valve covers. If they are stuck use a rubber mallet and maybe a block of wood to tap them free.
Thanks
Good video but we should have seen the cover gazket number for your viewers
Thanks
How long should this process take ?
No homo I like your haircut 💈 that's my style as well.
You local in NYC want to do my
Valve cover
Gaskets 👀😁
Do you have to reseal the top section if there is no visible leak or separation? Could you just replace the gasket?
I believe you don't have to break the breather cover seal to do the valve cover gasket, but that small space can get packed full of sludge. If when you lift the valve cover out, there's sludge build up around the valve train, you're going to want to have a look inside the breather cover.
@@guganotubo hopefully not I don't want to mess with the breather cover since it seems hard to find the right gasket maker, think I will just replace the preformed gasket 🤷
What type of silicone did you use for the ccv cover? is it ok to use RTV red? or black for that matter?
George Jubran black loctite sl 5900 flange sealant
Can you please tell me what do you torque the bolts to? Thanks
The main bolts are 10NM and the small aluminum bolts are 4NM. ALERT - always replace the aluminum bolts in the PVC covers since they are ONE TIME USE ONLY.
It's the same with 2005 E320 4matic?
What is the engine code? Size? What other models share the engine?
The engine size does not matter. The V8 and V6 both use the magnesium valve covers and they look nearly identical, so the process is entirely the same.
I note that it does not matter since all of the old V8 and V6 engines use the magnesium valve covers and the process to repair is identical.
what fan do you use on that?
Did you just let a fuel drain in the head of the engine at 5:15 ?
Never will be enough to cause any damage.
It is about a half a cup of gas. I cut a water bottle in half, and used it to capture the gas rather than letting it leak all over everything.
Sino se limpia puede ocasionar que de repente tire humo azul
You didn’t show how to remove the coils?
sen say I have another video of taking out spark plugs just before this video, go check it out
Did all that and it is still smoking. Guessing a head gasket leak. Ugh.
Torque settings????????
Agreed. Helpful video but incomplete. Need torque settings and sequence.
Probably snug then a quarter turn
It's 8 Nm or 71 inch/pounds
8 NM for the valve cover bolts and only 4NM for the aluminum PVC bolts. Never reuse the aluminum bolts. They are one time use only.
