What This Product Does
The set provides replacement gaskets for sealing the engine joints covered by its contents. Renewing these seals when dismantling the engine helps address deterioration caused by age, repeated heating and cooling, or previous fitting problems.
Technical Details
- Brand: Elring.
- Application: Porsche 996 Carrera 3.4L, including the supplied C2 and C4 applications.
- Engine Gasket - Cylinder 1-3 and Engine Gasket - Cylinder 4-6 are not included.
Symptoms of Fault
- Oil residue or drips around gasket joints.
- Coolant seepage or falling fluid levels.
- An oil-burning odour or smoke where leaked oil reaches hot components.
- Leaks that return after temporary repairs.
These signs require diagnosis; they do not establish that a gasket is the cause or that an engine rebuild is necessary.
Why Replacement Matters
Replacing aged or disturbed gaskets during engine work helps restore sealing at the affected joints and can avoid another dismantling job to address an overlooked seal. Inspect the mating faces carefully, remove old gasket residue and follow the specified tightening procedure.
FAQs
- Does the set include the cylinder-bank gaskets?
No. The Engine Gasket - Cylinder 1-3 and 4-6 components require separate purchase. - Should sealant be added?
Only where the instructions for the particular joint specify it. Do not apply additional sealant as a general precaution. - Can removed gaskets be fitted again?
Normally, renew gaskets when opening the joints they seal, rather than relying on previously compressed material.

Typical Applications
Hylomar Gasket 3400 can be used as a gasketing compound between machined surfaces. It is ideal for sealing between mating faces on engines and transmission components where resistance to temperature and vibration are essential.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Hylomar Gasket 3400 should be applied to clean and dry surfaces, free of contamination such as oil or grease. The compound may be dispensed by hand from cartridge, concertina pack, or via a screen printing system. Once applied the joint should be assembled as soon as practical. Any excess compound can be easily wiped off external surfaces with a clean cloth soaked in Acetone or other suitable solvents.
