OEM VW Valve Covers & Cork Gaskets — Black Finish (Pair)

Genuine OEM Volkswagen valve covers, sourced directly from the VW production hub in Puebla, Mexico. A factory-spec fix for the poor fitment and persistent oil leaks common to thin aftermarket imitations on air-cooled engines.

Manufactured with the correct gauge steel and precise sealing flanges, these covers deliver the rigidity needed to hold a seal against the cylinder head, even at high operating temperatures.

Vehicle Fitment

Standard fitment for dual-relief and single-relief air-cooled upright engines:

  • VW Beetle & Super Beetle: 1954–1979
  • VW Karmann Ghia: 1956–1974
  • VW Bus (Type 2): 1954–1971 (1200cc, 1500cc, 1600cc)
  • VW Type 3: 1962–1973
  • VW Thing: 1973–1974
