Your INFINITI's hardworking engine operates with a vacuum-sealed exhaust mechanism, and the Engine Intake Manifold Gasket is essential for protecting your engine's seal. In your INFINITI, the intake manifold serves to regulate the flow of air throughout the engine's cylinders when it's running. The Engine Intake Manifold Gasket is installed between the manifold and the engine to stop any air leaks, which may diminish your engine's efficiency significantly.

The Engine Intake Manifold Gasket in your INFINITI is made to stand up to everyday driving for several years, but it may need to be replaced for an older vehicle. A faulty Engine Intake Manifold Gasket can produce engine misfires or a decrease in engine power, which means your engine might be straining to perform and weakening its long-term function if your INFINITI Engine Intake Manifold Gasket isn't creating a seal like it's supposed to. If your INFINITI's engine has been running “rough” or your fuel efficiency has diminished lately, you might want to turn to the pros and have the engine inspected and get a clear idea of your Engine Intake Manifold Gasket's condition. We recommend visiting your nearest INFINITI dealer or authorized service location.

In some vehicles, the Engine Intake Manifold Gasket can also contain coolant where it should be: INSIDE the engine. If you notice puddles of coolant on your driveway under your usual parking place or detect a coolant smell (it will likely smell a bit sugary) that comes from under your INFINITI's hood the Engine Intake Manifold Gasket could have a leak. Not surprisingly, low coolant levels can lead to an overworked (and extremely hot!) engine, which might create more severe problems in your engine over time.

The Engine Intake Manifold Gasket is essential for maintaining your engine, and installing a new one is a task best left to the pros. As such, we recommend purchasing a replacement Engine Intake Manifold Gasket directly from INFINITI, then rely on the pros at your nearby service site or dealer to complete the repair. When you shop INFINITI Genuine Parts, all parts and accessories are meticulously engineered for your exact vehicle, and they come with a 12 month/12,000 mile (whichever occurs first) limited warranty (if installed by dealer at the time of purchase).
