Oil Cooler Change.. are the other gaskets reusable?

I have ordered my oil cooler and a few other unrelated parts I need that have been neglected. One thing that is not clear to me is whether or not the intake and EGR cooler gaskets reusable or not. In my searching I have read only one saying they are but, none saying they are not. If not I'll order those too.

Thanks!

Clayton

The intake gaskets are re-useable, however, depending on mileage it's not too bad of an idea to go ahead and repalce them anyways.

Whenever removing the EGR cooler I would easily replace the o-ring and intake steel shim.

I use all New OEM Gasket New every time since most wear over time

There was 1 exception I reused the intake Donut gasket
I had a New one but that seamed to Really hold the intake up (WAY Fatter) and Didn't want to chance the seal of intake so reused

If they are from Dorman I would say NO.

But I am like Benny I don't like to reuse them.
The cost is not that great.

If they are dormans I would make a point to rip it apart to get them out of there.

I would say be better to be safe than sorry and just put new gaskets in, your in there anyway may as well put in new and not have to worry about them for a while.

I should of said that it it were Dorman I
would not use it at all. The reason is we
have seen a few leaks and messes up
IPR screens from green fragments.
