17473326 Shim — Volvo FH12 FH16

This is a precision-engineered shim, a thin component used to adjust clearances within engine assemblies. It is manufactured to exact OEM specifications, ensuring proper fitment and function, unlike a worn or damaged shim that can lead to incorrect tolerances. Observable symptoms of a failed shim are typically related to abnormal engine noise, such as ticking or knocking, or a loss of engine power.

Failure Symptoms

An improperly functioning shim might initially cause a subtle increase in engine noise, such as a light ticking sound. If the clearance becomes too large, this noise can escalate to a more pronounced knock, and engine performance may degrade. The main risk is accelerated wear on adjacent engine components due to incorrect operating clearances.

Installation Tip

Ensure the shim and the mating surfaces are perfectly clean and free of any debris before installation. Never reuse a shim that has been removed, as they are designed for a single, precise fit.

Service Note

When replacing shims, it is advisable to inspect the associated components, such as camshafts, rocker arms, or bearings, for signs of wear.
