“This MAHLE Aftermarket Facebook Live event was the first in a series we have planned,” said Jon Douglas, President, MAHLE Aftermarket Inc. “These events will focus on educating technicians about challenges they are facing with respect to product installation, best practices in maintenance, and any issue they might be faced with in their everyday work. The Facebook Live platform offers a unique opportunity for technicians to interact directly with some of the industry’s most well-respected experts.”

The questions the experts addressed included:

  • “Do gaskets need a sealer and, if so, what sealer is best for what type of gasket?”
  • “What does the term MIS gasket sets mean and what is included in it?”
  • “Is it bad to reuse gaskets?”
  • “How can you tell the difference between a low-quality and a high-quality gasket just by looking at it and not knowing the materials it was made from?”
  • “What are the advantages to multi-layer steel gaskets versus composite gaskets?”

MAHLE Original gaskets match OE parts in form, fit, and function; ensuring that the parts are designed and constructed to the same exacting standards as the gaskets that came on the vehicle. MAHLE Original gasket sets include all the parts necessary for the technician to do the job correctly.
