MAHLE Original Infiniti FX45 08-03 Cylinder Head Gasket (Right)

This Victor Reinz cylinder head gasket is made from a multi-layer steel (MLS) design, a common and well-regarded construction for modern engines. It's specifically the right-side gasket, meaning it's designed to seal the combustion chambers on that bank of your engine. A properly sealing head gasket is essential for keeping coolant and oil out of the combustion chambers and preventing exhaust gases from escaping where they shouldn't. If you're rebuilding the top end of your engine or dealing with a blown head gasket, this part is key to restoring proper engine function.

The multi-layer steel construction offers good resilience against the high pressures and temperatures found in an engine's cylinder head area. This design helps ensure a solid seal over time, even under demanding conditions. When installing, make sure the cylinder head and block surfaces are perfectly clean and flat, as this is critical for any head gasket to perform correctly. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific torque sequences and procedures.
