No nonsense guide on replacing the Valve Cover Gasket (VCG) in Prince engines. This one is a Citroen DS5 with the 1.6 THP, EP6. This should be the same on the Citroen DS3, DS4, Peugeot 3008, 5008, RCZ, Mini R55, R56, and BMWs with the N12 and N14 engine.
While the valve cover is off please check all timing components for wear, it is a very common issue in these engines. The timing chain should have zero play or slack in it. It is usually caused by long oil change intervals of more than 10,000km. Please change your oil every 5,000 - 7,500km. Early signs are a rattle sound on cold start. If you catch it early enough you may only need to replace the chain tensioner, if left too long you will need to replace the timing chain itself. Also check for any broken plastic pieces.

Thank you for this very useful instructions. Your instructions also fit to Peugeot 308CC (THP) - as I own. Can you give me some more information about the sealing grease (RTV Silicone) for the corners? Any recommanded products?

I understand that there are several versions of valve covers, the last one I think allows the pcv valves to be changed without changing the cover, some say that gas recirculation works better, what is your opinion about it?

@HeroRepairs Жыл бұрын

I wouldn't replace the valve cover itself unless it was either leaking or over 200,000kms. If you do want to replace it for either of those reasons I'd personally just refit the variant that came with the car since you'd have to upgrade the turbo intake pipe as well if you changed.

Hi, thank you for your work. How do you know if you have to change only gaskets or the entire valve cover ?

@HeroRepairs Жыл бұрын

Examine the valve cover for any signs of damage or wear. Look for cracks, warping, or any other physical damage. If the valve cover is damaged, it will need to be replaced. A cracked valve cover might not seal properly, and this can cause vacuum leaks. These leaks can lead to rough idling or even engine misfires. You can also look at where oil is leaking from, if it's low down it's likely the gasket, if it appears to come from higher up on the valve cover it could be due to a crack.

@@HeroRepairs Thank you for your answer. I have examined the valve cover and I have not identified visible damages but I clearly have vacuum leaks and rough idling. Thank you.

Hi is neccesary te torgue key and the bolt tighten with some order?

At 6:28 I show the correct torque sequence. I recommend using this sequence, but you would likely be fine using a generic pattern going from inside to outside.
