Description

Left intake manifold gasket – M116 M117 engine – Mercedes R107 C107 W126 C126 W463

Elring quality version – recommended by Stolk Balkbrug due to its very high quality, precise fit, and durable seal.

Intake manifold gasket for the left side of the Mercedes M116 and M117 V8 petrol engines.

Left is the driver's side, viewed in the direction of travel of the car. This applies to both European and American Mercedes models with the steering wheel on the left.

This gasket ensures a good seal between the intake manifold and the cylinder head. Due to aging and temperature fluctuations, the seal can start to leak, causing the engine to draw in false air and run irregularly.
