Fitment Notes
- Always match vehicle details before ordering. Confirm exact fitment using VIN, engine code, or chassis number if multiple variants exist.
- JJ514 is for the later Essex V6 fitted with the aluminium tappet (valve) cover.
- For the earlier Essex V6 fitted with the steel valve cover, use part number JH401 instead.
- Inspect the tappet cover material before ordering to confirm the correct gasket.
Important: Engine components such as bearings, pistons, rings, valves, gaskets, and related parts must be installed only by a qualified, VAT-registered workshop using proper measuring and torque equipment. Ensure crankshaft journals are measured and polished, oil clearances verified, and assembly lube applied. Failures due to oil starvation, contamination, incorrect sizing, or improper torque are not manufacturing defects and are not covered under warranty. Always replace engine oil, filters, and gaskets during installation.
Engine Parts Return Policy Warning
Returns Policy Notice: Engine internal components (including bearings, pistons, rings, gaskets, valves, etc.) are non-returnable once the sealed packaging has been opened. Returns are only accepted if the incorrect part was supplied and the item remains sealed, unused, and in original condition. Opened, fitted, dirty, or marked parts cannot be resold and are not eligible for refund or exchange. Please verify engine code, bore/size, and bearing grade before opening any packaging.
Installation / Use / Maintenance Tips
- Confirm whether the engine has the aluminium or steel tappet cover before fitting; the wrong gasket will leak.
- Clean both mating surfaces thoroughly and remove all traces of the old gasket and sealant.
- Inspect the sump pan flange for distortion and straighten if needed before refitting.
- Torque sump bolts evenly in a cross pattern to the manufacturer's specification.
- Refill with fresh engine oil and check for leaks after the first heat cycle.
