Genuine: Original manufacturer part. This product is the original part designed and produced by the vehicle manufacturer.
Valve Stem Cap is a hardened cap that sits over the tip of the valve stem in the cylinder head valve train.

It forms the wear interface between the rocker and the end of the valve stem, taking the rubbing contact so the valve tip itself is protected. On engines not fitted with caps as standard from the factory, they can be added where the valve stem tips or rocker pads show heavy wear. Sold individually.

Frequently asked questions

What is the LJC100270LR valve stem cap for?
The LJC100270LR valve stem cap is a hardened cap fitted over the tip of the valve stem in the cylinder head. It sits between the rocker and the valve tip, absorbing the rubbing contact so the end of the valve stem is shielded from wear on these engines.
Which vehicles does this valve stem cap suit?
This valve stem cap suits the Defender (1987-2006) 2.5L diesel, 300 Tdi and 2.5L petrol, the Discovery 1 (1989-1998) 200 Tdi and 300 Tdi, and the Range Rover Classic 2.5L TDi from VIN JA610294. Check the Classic VIN, since fitment starts from that build.
Is the valve stem cap sold singly, and should worn ones be reused?
The valve stem cap is sold individually, with one fitted per valve, so order the count your engine needs. Replace worn caps rather than reusing them, because a dished or grooved cap speeds up wear on both the rocker pad and the valve stem tip.
