Did this back in August when i noticed oil in one of my cylinders. I followed the instructions just as you explained and it went smoothly with no hiccups. I appreciate your detailed videos a ton. Keep up the Great work!

Great tutorial and we appreciate you helping the community. Your instructions are so simple to follow. Thank you 🙏🏼

Did this 4 days ago. Everything went just as you explained. Great help.

Love the Altima content... I decided to remove the "beauty cover" after noticing that the '23 Altima does not come with one. Now that it's off, I need to take a close look to see if the valve cover is leaking at all. I have a 2016 with 76,000 miles so I think I'm good for now.... also glad to find out where the PCV hose and valve is in case it needs to be replaced. thanks again for all of these Altima videos!

1st off, THANKS! This video gave me the confidence to tackle this job. was able to do the job in about 2-3hours. Love how thorough you are. Just earned a sub! Keep up the great work!

Great video. Well laid out and gave me confidence to get it done. Appreciate you helping us all.

Best replacement video I’ve seen so helpful and thorough!

Was debating whether to do this myself. After watching your video, i definitely am now. Top notch video. Thanks.

Man that is one seriously clean engine for over 200k!! I'd be ok with dropping my lunch sammy on it and still eat it! People do not understand how regular oil changes and air filter changes are for engine health. I change the oil in my 2.5 every 3k (conventional) and air filter every 6 months ( about 9 to 12k miles). Just FYI on valve covers - There is a very common issue with aftermarket valve covers for the 2.5l, they don't seal well, and some have clearance issues where valvetrain components will actually contact the plastic inner shield of the valve cover. Only use OEM Nissan valve covers! If your valve cover is not sealing well the 2.5 will begin to ingest oil. That begins to foul plugs, contaminate/stick piston rings with burnt oil sludge, and also pollute the catalytic converter causing emission issues. How do you know if your losing oil? Check the dipstick a few times between oil changes. Oil consumption is not normal for the 2.5, I dont care what you read. If the 2.5 is drinking any oil there is a problem with the PCV, valve cover, or the engine (but rarely). Look for leaks around the cover occasionally and if you see oil, deal with it right away. Pull the PCV hose and if it is dripping oil, you have a valve cover leak. If your 2.5 is drinking oil and its not obvious, pull the spark coils and see if the wells have oil in them, thats a typical failure point. Oil consumption will lead to a damaged engine or emission system. If you have a valve cover oil leak, deal with it right away and only use OEM valve covers. Gret video!

Thank you so much!!! By watching your video, I was able to do it by myself😃 on my 2014 Nissan Altima save over 1k in cost. I ordered parts from Amazon since I was changing the gasket I went ahead and changed spark plugs and coils too.

Very easy to follow your instructions! Great video!

Thanks for your detailed video, saved me a bundle. Great instructions. You are very appreciated.

Thank you for this video. I changed out my motor mount at the same time. I didn’t end up snapping one of my valve cover bolts lol, but I will be drilling it out tomorrow.

Great video. I'm doing this plus the motor mount Monday. Thanks

I just finished, thanks for your help.🙏🙏🙏

Buddy you earned yourself a new subscriber damn fine job damn fine job

Thanks for the caliper slide pin info!!

Got bored and decided to watch a “how-to” video and I have to say you could teach auto repair to a 5 y/o excellent work.

Great video again! Love how detailed it is. Just wondering if you have any tutorials on replacing the 2 thermostats on this car. I have a 2013 and looking to do it myself. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge! Your car is very clean for 205k!

Very.. very good video, thank you!! 👍👍🙏🙏

Excellent video dude! Thank you for step by step guidance. Could you please share the parts links if you got it online. I have a 15 Altima 2.5 S that has 160k miles. I do see oil building up on my valve cover so it probably needs to be changed. I hope I do a clean job like you did!

Good video. Very specific

Good job on the video. Very informative! Tackling this in the morning.

Hi man thanks for fhis hard jab nice and clean ? I have nisan sentra 2019 . I was opened one plug spark befor and see some oil in and i get it back so right now i decided reslove this problem so what i do change valve cover gasket and rocker cover bring new one and spark plug tube seals i don't know what i buy valve cover or rocker cover or plug tube seals ?? i think it is different on altima if you know about that advise me pls

Yesterday I put new spark plugs on my Nissan Altima 2016 and after the mechanic started taking out the old one the second one on passenger side he noticed some oils around old spark plugs other three on dry condition he recommended it to replace the valve cover do u think I should be doing this to prevent eny misfire in the near future what's your opinion reply to me please

Should the negative battery terminal be taking off or this could be done with the battery on?

How do you locate the Service repair manuals and torque specs? I tried google for the pdf version but they charge on some websites.

What is the cost for a job like this found oil in one of the holes after i removed one of my coils. Have a bad back at the moment so i cant do much rn

Great Video, I am definitely not a mechanic. but your video gave me the confidence to tackle this job. Not as easy as you make it look. Question - just out of curiosity did you wait 24 hrs before driving? My permatax sealant said to wait 24hrs before driving? Just wanted to know if it is safe to drive before 24hrs.

where did you get hose instructions from (3:05) was it alldata

Thanks for video, but where did u get the cover gasket ?

Just found oil in all four cylinders when going to change plugs suggest value cover replacement for 13 Nissan Altima 2.5sl ?

Great video, but I didn’t realize you were saying inches per pound for torque specs and not feet per pound. I ended up breaking a bolt off, and spent some time extracting it. Lesson learned, but I still saved plenty of money, just lost time.

Would the valve cover from an American built rogue to a korean assembled rogue be any different?

Thank you!

Hey what's that rubber part called at 5:48? My car was making noises idling and I checked to see what it was and that rubber part is cracked and separated from the bolt.

Do you have a link to where you ordered your new valve cover?

do i need to change the oil after replacing the valve cover

Thanks for the detailed instructions! Definitely hard to find. First video that popped up and your legit af!! #KZfaqCerifiedMechanic

What brake cleaner did you use?

If I get a little debris in under gasket area will I have to get it oil change?

Watched for 30 mts and pause, hit like button🎉 let me brush teeth first

Do you have a video on the infamous power steering noise when you turn the wheel left or right and it goes away when the wheel is straight they say this is normal but I don’t believe so

Yes I have a 17 Altima bought from a rental car company took to dealer to have a transmission service done at 68000 miles problem I'm having is that if the temperature is 25 or less car has to warm up for 20 minutes if not car just revs up and slips summer time it's fine can't figure it out

What should I do if there is oil in the cylinders?

Need a engine cover like this. Where can I order it ?

Can I use a wire brush to clean it around it?

There is a Nissan bulletin related to the orange color PCV valve, I have replaced mine as my fuel consumption was too high, Nissan recommend replacing it. Nissan Bulletin 11810-6N202 Defective PN 11810-1KC0A New Nissan PN is 11810-EA200

Not sure if I’ll get an answer but I’ll try anyways lol what website do you use to order your OEM Nissan Parts?

Wonder if it’s the same CVT after 200 k. Mine has around 70on it. All your videos are very informative. Thanks for posting it.

Do you happen to know the torque specs for the engine mount in the bottom itself? Need to change that and this is the closest tutorial to that 😓

❤awesome

How you got this engine so clean?

These valve covers are MIA for OEM these days. I blame your great video 😂😂😂.

Great video and great explanations however your torques were not is spec. Once you put an extension on a torque wrench the specs change based on the length of a extension. Basically the torque is reduced. We use a certain formula for that adjustment.

What's the link for the twerk specs?

I just replaced the Hydraulic mount and I set the torque for the mounting bracket nut to hold it in at 76 ft pounds and it broke off. Can't find another stud anywhere.

17 in lbs what is it in ft lbs...im about to set it at 17 ft lbs

Do 2012 nissan sentra

How many hours R&R?

My valve cover gasket started leaking at 90-95k.. ! Just hit 100k

Nissan has the worst DIY vehicles...my family will never ever own another Nissan car...
