⚙️ Key Features

• D16 exhaust-manifold sealing gasket
• High-temperature multi-layer construction
• Volvo OEM family 8131215 / 20744865 / 21352841
• One gasket is required at each specified exhaust port or manifold section
• Also supersedes Volvo part number 3809130

🔌 Function

The gasket seals the exhaust port and manifold flange so exhaust gas cannot escape before reaching the turbocharger.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Soot marks around the cylinder head
• Ticking or puffing exhaust noise
• Loss of turbocharger energy and boost
• Exhaust smell in the engine compartment
• Burnt or eroded gasket edges

🛠️ Service Notes

• Fit a new gasket every time the joint is disturbed — a gasket takes a permanent set once it has been torqued and will not seal reliably a second time
• Scrape both faces back to clean bare metal, keeping the blade at a shallow angle so it lifts the old material without gouging the surface, and use a plastic scraper on aluminium castings
• Check the faces for flatness, cracks and corrosion pitting, and make sure no old gasket, carbon or hardened sealant is left in the corners or around the bolt holes
• Fit the gasket dry unless the workshop manual for your engine calls for a sealant, and then only the type it specifies — surplus sealant squeezes out into oil, coolant and fuel passages
• Draw the fasteners down progressively in the sequence and to the torque given in the manual for your engine, and recheck after the first heat cycle where the manual asks for it
