Good quality but needs to be better. Quality Controls

This valve cover saves me at least $50-60 over other brands and the dealer. The quality is as good as the original.

I needed a new valve cover gasket so I decided to just replace everything with a redesigned cover. The only issue I have with this valve cover is the quality of the o-rings for the bolts. One…

The problem with light oil consumption is solved!

I was concerned that this Dorman part had not been updated to fix excessive oil consumption and smoke on start up. After speaking directly to Dorman, they assured me that this is an updated part.

Fixed oil consumption and smoke on start up in '05 Suburban

30 mins I'm not a mechanic and have never done "this" before (or so I thought). I watched a few YouTube videos on this and everything went smoothly.

Be sure to torque the valve cover bolts to 8 ft-lbs per manufacturer's specifications. I bought a snap-action torque wrench from Port Freight. This literally INSTANTLY stopped the white-blue smoke on cold starts and

Pros
  • Direct replacement - this rocker cover fits and functions like the original part
Cons
  • Some faults
