Description
What does a valve adjusting shim do?
This valve adjusting shim acts as a precision-ground spacer designed to bring valve clearance in heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines to the exact tolerance set by the manufacturer. It is fitted between the rocker arm or cam follower and the valve, adding measured thickness into the valve train to ensure the valve seats fully on every cycle.Compatible vehicles and engines
This specific 2.75 mm component is compatible with several Volvo engines, including the D10A, D12, D12C, D12D, and D16C series, as well as Renault Trucks Magnum with DXi12 engines. It is also fitted to Volvo FM10, FM12, NH12, VNL, and VHD models.Installation and maintenance
For professional workshop technicians, it is critical to measure every valve individually during maintenance to ensure the correct thickness is applied to each cylinder. We recommend cleaning the shim seat and applying a light layer of oil before installation to prevent scoring during the first start-up cycle.Troubleshooting and selection
Maintaining correct valve clearance is essential to prevent premature wear of the camshaft and valve seating faces. Always verify all clearances after assembly before final installation of the engine cover.OE cross-reference
1300 05 016 (Valve Adjusting Shim Engine Valve) is the equivalent of the Volvo OE number. This part directly replaces Volvo OE number 1547982.Other OEMs

FAQ
What is the function of a valve adjusting shim?
It is a precision spacer used in diesel engines to adjust the gap between the rocker arm and the valve stem, ensuring correct valve timing and seating.
Which Volvo engines are compatible with this 2.75 mm shim?
This shim is suitable for various Volvo series including D10A, D12 (including D12C/D12D), D16C, and NH12 engines.
How do I know if a shim needs replacement?
If engine compression drops or if there is excessive noise from the cylinder head, it often indicates that valve clearances have drifted due to worn shims.
Can I grind a shim to adjust the clearance?
No, grinding a shim removes the hardened surface layer and can lead to rapid failure; always replace with a new shim of the correct thickness.
What are the OE reference numbers of this part?
1300 05 016 directly replaces Volvo OE number 1547982.
