Fel-Pro VS50842R is a valve cover gasket set for verified V8 Mercedes-Benz applications where oil seepage at the cover can come from imperfect, heat-cycled sealing surfaces. Its molded rubber and proprietary cork-rubber construction is made to conform to expansion, shrinkage, and minor warping, helping restore a dependable seal without adding gasket sealant in typical installations.

Fel-Pro VS50842R Features:

• Engine valve cover gasket set uses molded rubber technology with a proprietary cork-rubber formulation to help seal uneven or heat-distorted surfaces.
• One-piece gasket configuration supports straightforward cover service and consistent placement during installation.
• Gasket thickness is .323 in. (8.25 mm), giving the seal the designed profile for the covered Mercedes-Benz V8 applications.
• Designed with torque retention in mind, so the material helps maintain sealing load as the valve cover and cylinder head move through heat cycles.
• On-vehicle validation supports real-world repair use by professional technicians and experienced DIY owners.
• Gasket sealant is not included and is generally not required when installed according to the repair procedure for the application.

Includes:

• Valve cover gasket set

Use this set when servicing valve cover leaks on the listed Mercedes-Benz V8 engines, especially where age, heat, and surface movement have made the original sealing surfaces harder to seal. Clean mating surfaces and follow the vehicle service procedure for torque sequence and specifications.
