DaveT Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 I've had good luck with fel pro for the non turbo EA82s. For the intake gaskets, and o rings for the oil passages, dealer only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Fel-Pro seems to work OK for the head gaskets. The rest of the gaskets they include are garbage and you need to get those from the dealer. GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
