Gaskets Volvo B280

Oil leaks along the valve covers or damp joints at the intake and cylinder head are common wear points on the B280 – the 2,849 cc V6 OHC fitted in the larger 940/960 engines. As the gasket material hardens over the years it begins to weep oil and coolant, so the mating surfaces are an obvious check point before you start chasing other faults.

This category gathers gaskets and sealing materials for the B280 across several families. The group includes gaskets for various joints in the engine plus silicone paste for surfaces where liquid sealant supplements or replaces a solid gasket. Since the V6 has more parting planes than a straight four, it pays to replace the gaskets family by family during a major job, so you avoid opening the same joint twice.

Always check that the gasket design matches the engine variant before installation – the fit is determined by the engine code and the design of the mating surface.
