Title: Turbo Gaskets
Post by: Helliouse on November 05, 2012, 11:01:58 am

Hello,
Does any one have part numbers or access to the gaskets for the 1.6TD turbo gaskets. KKK 24

Stealership is saying they got nothing.

there were never any gaskets installed in either location..

thats how they came factory, as far as im aware...

the mating surfaces were machined basically perfect, meaning there was no requirement for a gasket..

There is a gasket turbo to downpipe, but not turbo to manifold.

I just hand lap both parts and use a light smear of permatex ultra copper prior to bolting them together.  I've never had a leak that way.

893 253 115 for the dp gasket.
They aren't listed NLA, so you should be able to find one.
