Genuine 13042-5TA1A OEM Timing Cover Gasket

The Genuine 13042-5TA1A is an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) timing cover gasket designed to provide a precise, leak-free seal between the timing chain cover and the engine block. Sourced directly from Nissan/Infiniti, this gasket meets the exact factory specifications for fit, material, and durability — ensuring the same performance as the part originally installed at the factory.

The timing cover gasket plays a critical role in sealing the front of the engine, preventing oil leaks around the timing chain cavity and protecting internal engine components from contamination. Using a genuine OEM replacement eliminates the guesswork of aftermarket fitment and ensures long-term sealing integrity.

Key Features:

• 100% Genuine OEM part — manufactured to original factory specifications
• Precision-molded gasket for a reliable, leak-free seal
• Designed for exact fit and compatibility with applicable Nissan/Infiniti engines
• Resists oil, heat, and engine vibration for long-lasting performance
• Direct replacement — no modifications required
• Backed by Nissan OEM quality standards

When performing timing chain service, water pump replacement, or front cover removal, replacing the timing cover gasket with a genuine OEM part is essential to restoring factory-level sealing and avoiding costly oil leaks down the road.
