This process is critical for the new gasket to provide a proper seal. During the installation of the new gasket, the torque value must be set correctly; this value is typically in the range of 10-15 Nm. Additionally, it is recommended to regularly change the engine oil and pay attention to the engine's operating conditions. Oil change intervals should generally be every 10,000 km. Furthermore, it would be beneficial to check other sealing elements of the engine along with this gasket.
