Frequently asked questions

What is the ERR2026 side cover gasket and what does it do?
The ERR2026 side cover gasket seals the cylinder-block side cover, the tappet inspection cover, to the block face on petrol and diesel engines. The cover closes the pushrod and tappet chamber, and this gasket forms the oil-tight joint between the cover plate and the machined block face.
When should the side cover gasket be replaced?
Replace the side cover gasket whenever the tappet inspection cover is removed for access to the tappets or cam followers. It's a single-use gasket; once compressed it won't reseal cleanly, so a new one each time keeps the block side cover joint oil-tight.
Which engines does this petrol and diesel side cover gasket fit?
This side cover gasket fits Series 1 2.0 petrol and diesel, Series 2/2A/3 2.25 and 2.5 petrol and 2.0/2.25 diesel, Defender 2.25/2.5 petrol, 2.5 diesel and 200TDi/300TDi, plus Discovery 1 200TDi/300TDi and Range Rover Classic 200TDi.
This gasket lists alternative number ERR3605, is it the same part?
Yes, ERR2026 and ERR3605 both cross-reference to this petrol and diesel side cover gasket, so either number identifies the correct part. Land Rover numbers were sometimes superseded over the production run, and both point to the same block side cover gasket.
