Vx dealer mate - only fit genuine Vx or you could be changing them again in the near future.

You need gasket, o-rings (8 off) and black sealant - check with AndyC on here for good prices.

You also need to check and clean breathers as blocked breathers could be the cause

OE gaskets on the face of are not cheap (around £80 all in IIRC) but cheaper in the long run because although pattern gaskets are cheap ... they don't last, & you end up doing them again. 

[mike clark]

so £80 for every thing wot about black stuff ?

Yep, that should include the sealant. Don't forget to read the guides in the maintenance section, and ensure the breathers, etc are cleaned while you're doing the gaskets.

I asked Andy for prices on these just the other day...

2 x 90511451  cam cover gaskets                   90511451 £35.84 each
16x 90411826  Cam cover o-rings                   90411826 £0.76 each
1 x 90485251  cam cover sealant                   90485251 £5.52 each

£89.36 + postage

You may want to double-check that is the correct sealant - I just reordered what I'd bought for the last one I did.

These are to do BOTH banks but it doesn't make sense just to do one.

There are other o-rings and stuff you may need when you're cleaning the breathers so check the guide first!
