17473319 Shim — Volvo FH12 FH16

This shim is a critical component within the engine's valve train system, precisely controlling clearances to ensure optimal valve timing and operation. Manufactured to exacting standards, it maintains its shape and integrity under high thermal and mechanical stress, unlike a worn shim that can lead to inconsistent valve lift. Operators may notice increased engine noise, rough idling, or a loss of power when a shim begins to fail.

Failure Symptoms

The first sign of a failing shim is often an audible ticking or tapping noise from the engine, particularly noticeable at idle. If ignored, the valve clearance can become too large, leading to reduced engine performance and potential damage to camshaft lobes. Continued operation with improper valve lash can result in significant internal engine wear and costly repairs.

Installation Tip

Ensure the valve train components are clean before installing a new shim to prevent premature wear. Avoid overtightening the valve adjustment screw, as this can damage the shim or camshaft.

Service Note

Inspect the valve tappets and camshaft lobes for wear when replacing shims.
