1. Part number. 2. Holes. The thickness of the cylinder head gasket installed depends on the piston protrusion. If only the cylinder head gasket is being replaced, a new gasket with the same designation as the old one should be used. The left and right cylinder head gaskets cannot be confused; they have different shapes.

Install



Installation in reverse order. Risk of damage to the sealing surface. Carefully remove any remaining sealant from the cylinder head and cylinder block. Avoid creating long scratches or burrs. Risk of damage to the cylinder block. There should be no oil or coolant in the blind holes of the cylinder head bolts. Risk of a leaky cylinder head gasket. Carefully remove any remaining sanding and grinding material. To prevent damage to the silicone layer and the grooves of the cylinder head gasket, handle the gasket with particular care. Risk of damage to open valves. When installing a replacement cylinder head, remove the plastic base to protect the exposed valves only when it comes into direct contact with the cylinder head. There is a risk of damage to the valves and piston crowns after working on the valve train. To ensure that no valve comes into contact with the cylinder head during operation, carefully turn the engine at least 2 revolutions.

Note: Replace bolts that have been over-tightened. Replace self-locking nuts, lip seals, gaskets and seals. rings. Modification of cylinder heads of TDI engines is prohibited. Before installing the replacement cylinder head, it is necessary to lubricate the mating surfaces between the rocker arm and the working surface of the cams with oil. To secure all hose connections, use clamps of the appropriate series. After replacing the cylinder head or cylinder head gasket, it is necessary to completely replace the coolant and oil.
