How to REMOVE LEFT CAM COVER | Maserati Quattroporte M139

This video shows how I remove the cam cover from the left side of the engine on my 2006 Maserati Quattroporte M139.
In order to be able to do this, I had to first remove the windscreen wiper cowl followed by the dash panel upper moulding. If you would like to see these videos, then please follow these links:

Here is my video showing how I remove the cam cover from the right side of the engine:

I'm doing this because I have oil leaking from the cam cover gaskets on both sides of the engine, so the cam covers need to be removed and new gaskets fitted.
Secondly, I've got an engine warning light on the dashboard. Using an ODB2 diagnostic tool, I've obtained the fault code and this suggests there could be a problem with a variator control solenoid valve or phase sensor.
My next video will show how I replace a damaged variator oil control valve on the left side of the engine.

Thank you for the video, I'm doing this job as we speak and I'm referencing this video as I go along. Just a heads up, the injector connectors - you can just push the metal retainer in to spread them and unplug them, you don't have to remove the meal clip to unplug them

Hi Greg, ah that’s great. Thanks for the tip on the injector connectors. That makes perfect sense to avoid dropping them. Hope it goes well. Cheers Ade
