The Engine Valve Cover Gasket under the hood of your Nissan creates a tight seal between your engine's valves and the outside world to keep oil in and pollutants out. The original Engine Valve Cover Gasket in your Nissan may become dry or cracked with age, which can create an imperfect seal and oil leaks that can easily make a mess under the hood.
An old, brittle Engine Valve Cover Gasket may create a strong smell of burning oil that you can detect from the interior of your Nissan, and subsequent oil leakage might lead to undue stress and wear on your engine. If you've recently noticed that you need to top off motor oil more frequently than usual, or an oil indicator light on the dash is showing low oil levels more often than not, it may be time for a new Engine Valve Cover Gasket.
If you can help it, don't procrastinate on repairs when you have an old Engine Valve Cover Gasket. Consistently low oil levels can diminish your engine's performance and can even damage the valves if not addressed quickly. Seeing oil splotches below your usual parking spot? Take your vehicle to a nearby authorized Nissan service center to find out if your old Engine Valve Cover Gasket might be the root of the issue and to get easy professional installation of a replacement gasket.
Quick, proactive engine repair is vital if you'd like to properly maintain your Nissan. Boost your engine's long-term performance with Nissan-backed genuine parts, like a replacement Engine Valve Cover Gasket. Enjoy peace of mind and a custom fit when you order your OEM parts through Nissan directly.
