Rocker cover gasket
So when I changed the spark plugs today, I noticed some oil on the threads of the old plugs . There looks to be a stain down the side of the wall going down into the spark plugs.
I'm thinking it's the rocker cover gasket, there's no oil anywhere else, zero outside on the engine bay. Regarding a gasket, Is there any certain brand I should get or stay away from? The nearest Volvo dealer is no where near me so I'll be ordering online. Thinking of this one? https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0127RTE...DY0MSV60XP5N9F |

I always get genuine Volvo parts - this way I know they are going to work as they should and I won't have to faff about replacing it again anytime soon.
There are loads of Volvo dealers that take orders over the phone or via eBay and will post out to you. |

Rang Volvo here and was told €46 for the gasket delivered. Does sound about right for the price? The place I usually get my service parts have aftermarket ones for about €€10 With the Volvo seal do you know if any sealant is needed or is it just stick it on and fits perfectly? |
