⚙️ Key Features

• Documented in D8A1-A MP and TAD1342GE turbocharger installations
• Cut profile aligns with the assigned flange and flow passages
• Material is selected for heat, oil and exhaust-system exposure
• Provides controlled compression without intruding into the flow path
• Mating faces must be clean, flat and free from old gasket material
• Single-use replacement is recommended whenever the joint is opened

🔌 Function

Seals the specified turbocharger or manifold joint against oil, air or exhaust leakage.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Oil, boost air or exhaust gas leaks from the joint
• Soot or oil staining appears around the flange
• The gasket is burnt, split or eroded
• Fastener loosening damages the sealing surface
• Replacement is required whenever the joint is dismantled

🛠️ Service Notes

• Always fit a new gasket, and take the old one off completely without scoring the joint faces — a plastic scraper and a residue-free solvent on aluminium, never an abrasive disc or a steel blade
• Check both faces for flatness, corrosion pitting and pulled threads before assembly; a gasket cannot bridge a distorted or damaged joint face
• Fit dry unless the procedure for your engine specifically calls for sealant — sealant on a gasket designed to run dry acts as a lubricant and lets the gasket creep out under clamping load
• Locate the gasket on its dowels or bolts and check every port, passage and bolt hole lines up before anything is tightened
• Draw the fasteners down in stages, evenly and from the centre outwards, to the figure in the workshop manual for your engine
• Handle the gasket flat and unfolded — a crease or a nicked edge becomes a leak path
