Detailed Description

Victor Reinz 15-11948-01 is an exhaust manifold gasket set developed for vehicles that demand stable sealing under repeated heat cycling. The MLS material helps maintain sealing integrity at the manifold-to-cylinder-head joint, where expansion and contraction can lead to leaks over time. This part cross-references MAHLE MS19217 for the same application.

Compatible With 2002-2010 Lexus SC430, 2001-2007 Lexus GS430, 2001-2006 Lexus LS430, 2005 Lexus GX470, 2003-2004 Lexus GX470, 1998-2004 Lexus LX470, 1998-2000 Lexus GS400, 1998-2000 Lexus LS400, 1995 Lexus LS400, 1992-2000 Lexus SC400, 2005 Toyota 4Runner, 2004-2005 Toyota 4Runner, 2001-2004 Toyota Sequoia, 2005 Toyota Sequoia, 2000-2004 Toyota Tundra, 2005 Toyota Tundra, and 1998-2004 Toyota Land Cruiser.

What It Helps Fix

• Exhaust leaks at the manifold sealing surface
• Ticking or puffing noises from a leaking gasket
• Loss of exhaust backpressure control from a poor seal
• Check engine light conditions related to exhaust leakage
• Heat damage caused by escaping exhaust gases

Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect the manifold and cylinder-head sealing surfaces before installation and remove carbon buildup or old gasket material. Verify bolt-hole alignment and torque fasteners in the correct sequence to help achieve an even seal. For best results, replace the gasket during manifold service on Lexus SC430, GS430, LS430, GX470, and Toyota Tundra applications when the original seal shows signs of leakage.

Quality Assurance

Victor Reinz has a long history of supplying exhaust manifold gaskets to original equipment vehicle manufacturers, and this part is built to OE specifications for a broad range of Lexus and Toyota engines, including newer high-tech designs and older performance-era applications.
