2007 Q7 4.2 - "outer left" valve cover gasket?

[Anthony Taylor]

Sorry if this got out so many times, I am having technical difficulties being stuck on stupid today...

Try this link below to ECS Tuning. I am not sure what the what VIN or engine code you actually have but ECS shows a VIN# listing for each of these in the part description. Try a cross reference with all the 4.2L's. A8 shows the split in 2007, BVJ engine code. Looks to be the same in each B7 RS4/S4 Give ECS Tuning a call. These gaskets are way less expensive and they use Genuine audi parts if you want it... Also they offer some covers as well. Good luck,
Tony

It shows up as a gasket on Worldpac's site, but they don't yet stock 
it.  Be interesting to see if they're actually going to have it in that 
configuration.  Be a big seller if they do.  My '02' and '03 Jetta TDis 
require the whole cover, but both are still fine at 190 and 210K.  I 
know a guy that reproduces rubber parts for Porsches, but the volume may 
be too low and the cost too high to justify the effort for this one.
