Mazda 6 Valve Cover Gasket Replacement

Replacing the valve cover gasket on my 2009 Mazda 6 after noticing that it was leaking a bit of oil.

The way I got around taking off the boys on the ignition coils is I just put on a regular socket and removed it from the ratchet. Then I put the ratchet over the socket. You won’t be able to attach the ratchet all the way into the socket but it will go in JUST enough for it to catch and you can start turning the socket to loosen the bolt. Good luck guys!

Amazing video bro, so comprehensive.

very good video, my exact same model. i have the same issue, the middle two coils are all in oil. the middle gasket definitely has some design issue

The VVT actuator seal should also be replaced when doing this job, as it cannot be removed and installed with the cover in place.

just did this after replacing spark plugs, noticed the two middle cylinders were drenched in oil. When you look at the design, there's not many bolts around the center gasket areas. seems after a while, it's a good idea to pull the plugs and see if oil is present. otherwise the mazda 6 has been great at 190K now.
