Vx dealer mate - only fit genuine Vx or you could be changing them again in the near future.
You need gasket, o-rings (8 off) and black sealant - check with AndyC on here for good prices.
You also need to check and clean breathers as blocked breathers could be the cause :y

OE gaskets on the face of are not cheap (around £80 all in IIRC) but cheaper in the long run because although pattern gaskets are cheap ... they don't last, & you end up doing them again. ;)

so £80 for every thing wot about black stuff ?

Yep, that should include the sealant. Don't forget to read the guides in the maintenance section, and ensure the breathers, etc are cleaned while you're doing the gaskets. :y

I asked Andy for prices on these just the other day...
2 x 90511451 cam cover gaskets 90511451 £35.84 each
16x 90411826 Cam cover o-rings 90411826 £0.76 each
1 x 90485251 cam cover sealant 90485251 £5.52 each
£89.36 + postage
You may want to double-check that is the correct sealant - I just reordered what I'd bought for the last one I did.
These are to do BOTH banks but it doesn't make sense just to do one.
There are other o-rings and stuff you may need when you're cleaning the breathers so check the guide first!
