Nissan Teana J32 Rocker Cover Gasket (Or Plug Seal?)














The rocker cover gasket of Nissan Teana J32 2.5 V6 engine with engine code of VQ25DE, have something different from the A32 and A33 model, in the rocker cover photo above, there are 2 extra holes pointed with the arrow, which there are 2 pieces of rubber seal needed for this place, I seen it may call as rocker cover grommet, or rocker cover gasket #2, but some of them may call it as plug seal, which I think it is not so suitable as the plug seal should be refer to the 3 holes at the rocker cover there which connected to the spark plug.

For the below photo, you may found the photo of one of the rocker cover gasket grommet, as this 2 pieces grommet in the rocker cover are with 2 different part number that can't be interchanged between them.

Chevrolet Captiva 2.4 EGR Valve Adapter Gasket











Inside the Chevrolet Captiva 2.4 gasket kit, you will found a very special gasket which looks like above photo, they call it EGR valve adapter gasket, although in Chevrolet model Optra 1.8 and the Opel Frontera 2.2 model also have similar gasket, but the Captiva 2.4 type have an extra hole that enhance with o-ring on it.

And for overseas market where the Suzuki have some joint venture model with the Chevrolet, there are some Suzuki model out there came with this Chevrolet engine. So it is not s surprise to see this items in Suzuki genuine part label packing.
