Description
What does a valve adjusting shim do?
This 2.35 mm valve adjusting shim is a precision-engineered component designed to maintain exact valve clearance within heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines. By sitting between the rocker arm or cam follower and the valve, it ensures the valve seats fully during every engine cycle, which is critical for maintaining optimal compression and engine timing.Compatible Volvo and Renault Trucks engines
This specific shim is compatible with several Volvo engine series, including the D10A, D12 (D12C, D12D), D16C, and various models such as the NH12, FM10, FM12, VNL, FH12, FH16, and VHD. It is also suitable for Renault Trucks Magnum engines equipped with DXi12 power units. For accurate fitment, always cross-reference the dimensions with the existing component or engine specifications.Installation and maintenance guidance
During installation, technicians should ensure the shim seat is clean and lightly lubricated to prevent scoring upon the first start-up. It is vital to measure each valve individually rather than assuming uniform clearance across all cylinders. Following manufacturer-specified maintenance intervals helps prevent premature wear of the contact surfaces.Preventing engine wear
Proper selection of this shim prevents compression loss and protects the valve seating face from damage caused by incorrect lash settings.OE cross-reference
1300 05 008 (Valve Adjusting Shim Engine Valve) is the equivalent of the Volvo OE number. This part directly replaces Volvo OE number 1547974.Other OEMs
