Engine Valve Cover 0361N4 – Peugeot 206/307/1007 & Citroën C2/C3/Xsara

Check part compatibility by using our vehicle filter options below. If you find your car, this part is compatible.

Ensure your engine remains clean, properly sealed and well-lubricated with this high-quality valve cover — compatible with Peugeot and Citroën 1.4 HDI engines (0361N4 and related). The valve cover encloses the cylinder-head’s valvetrain and camshaft area, keeping engine oil inside where it belongs and preventing contaminants from entering. A robust, correctly sealed valve cover restores proper crankcase ventilation, protects critical top-end engine components, and helps maintain smooth idling, stable performance and long-term engine health — especially important on high-mileage or aging HDI engines.

Key Benefits — Why Choose This Valve Cover

• Prevents oil leaks and spills — A properly sealing valve cover avoids oil escaping from the valve-train area, which might otherwise drip onto hot components or the exhaust, causing smoke, burning oil smell or fire risk.

• Maintains correct engine lubrication and prevents wear — By keeping oil inside and protecting valve-train parts from dust, debris or water ingress, it ensures camshafts, rocker arms and valves remain lubricated and wear is minimised.

• Avoids misfires, rough idle or engine performance issues — A damaged valve cover (or gasket) can lead to oil leaking into spark-plug wells or ignition components — causing misfires or rough engine running.

• Enhances emissions control and keeps crankcase ventilation working — The valve cover helps seal the crankcase and often integrates ventilation/PCV paths, preventing unfiltered gases or oil vapour leaks — thereby helping maintain proper emission levels.

• Cleaner engine bay and easier maintenance — With no leaks or oil seepage around cylinder head, the engine bay stays cleaner; makes inspections, future maintenance and gasket changes easier and avoids build-up of grime.

• Durable replacement — restores original sealing integrity — For older engines where plastic covers or gaskets have degraded over time (heat cycles, vibration, oil contamination), replacing the valve cover ensures a fresh, reliable seal and reduces risk of recurring leaks — extending engine life.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is a valve cover and why is it important?
A: The valve cover (also known as rocker cover or cam cover) sits on top of the engine’s cylinder head, enclosing the valvetrain (camshaft, valves, rocker arms). It seals the top half of the engine, keeping lubricating oil inside and preventing dirt, debris or contaminants from entering — essential to maintain lubrication and protect internal engine parts.

Q: What happens if the valve cover or its gasket fails?
A: Common issues include oil leaks (external drips or seepage), oil building up around spark-plug wells (leading to misfires), burning-oil smell or smoke if oil contacts hot exhaust parts, low engine oil levels, and in severe cases — increased engine wear or even fire hazard.

Q: How do I know if I need to replace the valve cover on my 1.4 HDI engine?
A: Look out for visible oil leaks around the top of the engine, oily deposits on the valve cover or cylinder head, burning-oil smell under the bonnet, low oil level without visible leak elsewhere, rough idle or misfires, or oil dripping into spark-plug wells. Any of those are strong signals that the valve cover (or gasket) should be inspected or replaced.

Q: Can I just replace the gasket instead of the whole valve cover?
A: Often yes — if the valve cover itself isn’t cracked or warped, replacing the gasket might solve leaks. However, if the cover is damaged, brittle, or has poor sealing surfaces, replacing the entire cover ensures proper sealing and long-term reliability.

Q: Does replacing the valve cover help with emissions or engine performance?
A: Yes — a well-sealed valve cover (with working PCV/ventilation if applicable) helps maintain correct crankcase pressure and keeps oil-vapour out of intake/exhaust, which supports cleaner combustion, reduces oil-vapour emissions, and supports stable engine performance.

Q: Why should I choose this valve cover from D2P Autoparts instead of re-using the old one?
A: Because over time valve covers are exposed to heat, vibration and oil, which can degrade sealing surfaces or cause cracks. A brand-new cover restores OEM-spec sealing and protection — preventing leaks, restoring reliability, and giving peace of mind, especially on higher-mileage HDI engines.
