# 859884 Shim | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta shim from the Engine group, 3.25 mm thick and listed for 9 applications across the TMD, MS, TAMD and MD engine series. It falls between 859883 at 3.28 mm and 859885 at 3.23 mm. The run these belong to is graded in steps of two or three hundredths of a millimetre, far finer than the published weights can resolve, so measure the shim and order on that figure.

## 🔌 Function

Sets a working clearance to specification by adding a precisely graded thickness of steel to the stack.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Clearance outside the specified figure at a routine check
-   Tapping or rattle from the assembly the shim controls
-   Face of the shim worn bright or unevenly dished
-   Micrometer reading below the marked thickness
-   Marking worn away so the step cannot be confirmed

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   A micrometer is essential — the difference between adjacent steps in this run is smaller than can be judged by feel or eye
-   Fit the shim the correct way up if the seat or the shim is marked
