Replacing the Intake Manifold Gasket

Model: Citroen C5 DC, MK 1 - Years 2000-2008
Part: Engine

Before installing the new intake manifold gasket, thoroughly clean the surfaces that will adhere to the gasket, both on the cylinder head and the manifold side: remove all remnants of the old gasket and polish until you achieve a mirror-like surface. At this point, insert the new gasket, aligning it with the dowel pins on the cylinder head, fit the intake manifold, and tighten the respective nuts in a cross pattern using a torque wrench.

This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
