FAQs

What does OE Quality mean for this gasket set?

OE Quality signifies that the part meets or exceeds the specifications set by the original vehicle manufacturer for fit, form, and function. This ensures it performs like the original part.

How do I know if I need to replace my exhaust manifold gasket?

Common signs include ticking or puffing noises from the engine bay, a noticeable exhaust smell inside the vehicle, reduced engine performance, or a check engine light related to exhaust gas recirculation or oxygen sensors.

Can I reuse my old exhaust manifold gasket?

No, exhaust manifold gaskets are designed for single use. They compress during installation and cannot create a proper seal if reused.

What tools are typically needed for this replacement?

You will generally need a socket set, wrenches, torque wrench, gasket scraper, cleaning solvent, and potentially penetrating oil for rusted bolts.

Is this gasket set suitable for a performance upgrade?

This gasket set is designed to meet OE specifications for replacement purposes and is not intended as a performance upgrade part.

What is the warranty on this FAI product?

This product is covered by a full OE Quality Warranty, as provided by FAI Auto Parts.

Where can I find the exact OEM part numbers this replaces?

The OEM part numbers are listed in the product description and compatibility section. It is recommended to cross-reference with your vehicle's specific parts catalog or a trusted automotive parts database.

Troubleshooting

Exhaust leak detected after installation

Verify that all manifold bolts were tightened evenly and to the manufacturer's specified torque. Check that the mating surfaces on both the manifold and cylinder head were perfectly clean and flat before installation. Ensure the correct gasket was used for the application.

Engine performance has not improved

Confirm that the exhaust leak was the primary cause of performance issues. Other engine problems may exist. Re-check for any subtle exhaust leaks, especially under load. Ensure the catalytic converter and other exhaust components are functioning correctly.

Noise from the exhaust system persists

This gasket set only addresses leaks at the manifold. Other exhaust system components (pipes, muffler, etc.) may be causing the noise. Inspect the entire exhaust system for damage or leaks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Safety First: Ensure the vehicle is safely supported and the engine is cool before beginning work.
  2. Access: Remove any components obstructing access to the exhaust manifold.
  3. Removal: Carefully unbolt and remove the old exhaust manifold and gasket.
  4. Cleaning: Thoroughly clean both the exhaust manifold mating surface and the cylinder head surface. Ensure they are free from debris, old gasket material, and carbon deposits.
  5. Installation: Position the new FAI EM1064 gasket onto the cylinder head or exhaust manifold, ensuring it aligns correctly with bolt holes.
  6. Reassembly: Reattach the exhaust manifold, tightening the bolts evenly in the sequence specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Overtightening can damage the gasket or manifold.

Compatibility:

This gasket set is designed to be interchangeable with part numbers such as MG9575-BGA, ADH280134-BLUE PRINT, 156.770-ELRING, 102046-FEBI BILSTEIN, 104200-FEBI BILSTEIN. It is also an OE equivalent for Citroen part numbers 1234178, 9631424480, and Peugeot part numbers 0349J0, 0349L2, 0349L9, 0359J2, and Volvo 8653687. Always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle's make, model, and year using these interchange and OEM numbers.

Care:

This is a non-serviceable part. Once installed, it requires no regular care. However, it is crucial to ensure the surrounding exhaust system components remain in good condition to prevent premature failure of the gasket. Regular checks for exhaust leaks should be part of your vehicle maintenance.
