BEWARE! DO NOT BUY! CAUSES PROBLEMS!

DO NOT BUY! GARBAGE AND WILL CAUSE ENGINE TEST IGNITION! This valve cover is garbage. My car was leaking oil from the valve cover. I bought this kit to replace everything. After it was installed by my professional mechanic, the check engine light came on. He showed the vacuum leak code. I paid for a smoke test thinking it might be something else and found out that THIS cap caused a new air leak! This is not OEM. Leak in the eccentric shaft sensor gasket on the valve cover. Brand new and caused new problems, wow. So now I don't have the money for that valve cover kit, plus labor and a smoke test to see what caused it! DO NOT BUY! Get an OEM and you avoid all the headaches. Waste of money and time!

Pros
  • Top marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • No automatic
