Cylinder Head Gasket for the 2.5L VM turbo diesel, sealing the cylinder head to the block across the combustion chambers, coolant transfer ports and oil galleries.

Head gaskets for this engine are supplied in graded thicknesses, identified by the number of notches on the gasket tab. The correct grade is selected from the measured piston protrusion above the block deck face, so that compression ratio and piston-to-valve clearance remain within tolerance. This is the 1-notch, 1.62 mm grade.

Measure piston protrusion before ordering - fitting the wrong thickness grade alters the running clearances.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 1.62mm 1-notch cylinder head gasket for?
This cylinder head gasket seals the head to the block on the 2.5L VM turbo diesel, across the combustion chambers, coolant ports and oil galleries. The 1.62mm thickness and single notch identify the correct grade for piston protrusion on this engine.
Which vehicle needs the 1-notch head gasket?
It fits the Range Rover Classic 1992 to 1994 with the 2.5L VM turbo diesel, from VIN JA610294. The notch count sets gasket thickness, so confirm your engine calls for the 1-notch 1.62mm gasket before ordering.
How do I know if I need the 1-notch or a thicker gasket?
The correct head gasket notch count is set by piston protrusion measured at build. This 1-notch gasket is 1.62mm thick. If your engine was measured for a 2 or 3-notch gasket that one is thicker, so check the original gasket or measure protrusion.
Why do head gaskets fail on the 2.5L VM diesel?
Head gaskets on the 2.5L VM turbo diesel typically fail from overheating, coolant loss or age, letting compression, coolant or oil cross between passages. Signs include white exhaust smoke, coolant loss and oil contamination. It's a known weak point on this engine.
