16v cam cover gaskets
« on: 25 March 2006, 19:00 »
Hi. my cam cover gasket is leaking ans p**ss**g oil down the back of the engine and down the pulley end of the block what a mess! been leaking for years by the look of it :angry:. This looks quite a complicated gasket set, can anyone advise on the most reliable kit to get. The existing one is a rubber type. Thanks  :smiley:

I'd get one from AVS:
http://www.vwspares.co.uk probably exactly the same as genuine VW ones!  All 16v kits are rubber :)
