DrRob Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Any tips on fitting them? Long story but front one was missing and it's peed oil out over front of engine. Do I fit the new one in with sealant? If yes, what type? Same question for rocker cover gasket.... TIA Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulcan bomber Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 No the seal does the sealing. Doesn't need any help. Iirc the proper rocker seal has the half moons moulded into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 No they are seperate seals. 2 x ERR765 http://www.brit-car.co.uk/product.php/85261/0/rocker_cover_end_seals_200tdi_engine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrRob Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 Have gone for the cheaper ones - not paying over £7 for a small bit of mounded rubber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 When it leaks, you may regret that £10 saving! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrRob Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 If it leaks, I'll buy the dearer ones 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrRob Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 https://www.lrdirect.com/ERR765-Rocker-Cover-End-Plugs-200-Tdi/ £77 for Genuine Must be a typo....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 that's a typo mistake, the brit-car link I posted above is LR Genuine at 7.59, hopefully for a pair [engine needs 2] if it's individual price, I'd buy the cheaper versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrRob Posted April 2, 2017 Author Share Posted April 2, 2017 Yes, only 1 needed. Ordered a few and some new seat covers to smarten the interior up a bit....the old ones have lasted 10 years and drivers has fallen to bits ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
