Just finished replacing valve covers and gaskets on my wife's 3.5 liter 03 Altima. Your video helped immensely and just wanted to let you know that I appreciated your effort putting this together! Thank you!

Ok bro. I did this but here are my suggestions. I have large hands so a pair of extra long needle nose pliers were huge in reaching lots of small clamps, etc. Lighting is poor so i suggest some powerful lights to make life easier, and finally I over torqued one bolt on the cover which snapped. Torque setting was off on my tool and it was a nightmare to remove!! otherwise great video thank you !!!

Doug Burckhardt says:

You added a dime-sized glob of silicone sealant in the corner of where ends of the valve cover where the cover curves up. Is that all you need? In the owners manual it shows a line of silicone that starts at the first bolt-hole and extends to the top of the curved portion on of the valve cover. Should I follow the service manual or what you did? Thanks.

Abel Figueroa says:

Hi…I'm about to attempt this. You are recommending the replacement of all the gaskets? I saw you posted links for the different ones. I did not see the link for the vent line connecting the valve covers. Could you add this? I could not find it on Amazon, like I did the other links. Thanks…good video.

My murano has 107,000 miles and I just had my spark plugs, intake manifold gasket and valve cover gasket replaced. I originally planned to only get my spark plugs and intake gasket serviced, but my mechanic noticed some oil leaking around the valve cover, but he said I only needed the gasket. And now I'm worried that I should of replaced the entire valve cover instead of just the gasket. So now my question for you is, will I be expecting any trouble with any type of leak after I just replaced all but the valve cover since I didn't know the seals weren't serviceable?
