Let’s get straight to it—this isn’t just a “cover” for your Tiggo7 Pro’s engine. It’s the
engine top’s “protective seal and guardian”: a durable, precision-machined component bolted directly onto the cylinder head (the upper part of the engine block) of the Tiggo7 Pro’s F4J16 engine. Think of it as a “shield for the engine’s inner workings”—it sits above critical parts like camshafts, valves, and rocker arms, keeping them safe while sealing in essential fluids. Its main jobs? Stop engine oil from leaking out of the cylinder head, block dirt, dust, or debris from getting into the engine’s top end, reduce engine noise (by dampening vibrations from internal parts), and sometimes support small components like the oil fill cap or PCV (
Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve. Without it, your Tiggo7 Pro’s engine would lose oil, get contaminated, and run far louder—leading to premature wear or even major damage.
This cylinder head cover is exclusively designed for Chery Tiggo7 Pro models equipped with the F4J16 engine—always confirm your vehicle’s VIN to be sure! It’s tailored to fit perfectly: its bolt holes align exactly with the F4J16 engine’s cylinder head (no forced tightening), its sealing edge matches the engine’s top contour (no oil leaks), and it has pre-drilled ports for the Tiggo7 Pro’s oil fill cap and PCV valve (no modifications needed). Grab a generic cover? You’ll run into trouble: it won’t seal properly (causes oil leaks), won’t fit the F4J16 engine’s layout (needs drilling), or uses weak materials (cracks under engine heat)—all costing you more in repairs.
It’s a workhorse for your Tiggo7 Pro’s engine health—here are 4 key things it does:
Seal oil in, keep contaminants out: The cover’s tight seal (with a dedicated gasket) traps engine oil inside the cylinder head, ensuring critical parts like camshafts stay lubricated. It also blocks dirt, water, or road grime from entering—preventing abrasive damage to the engine’s top end.
Protect internal engine parts: It acts as a physical barrier for delicate components like camshaft lobes and valve springs. Without it, these parts could get hit by loose debris or damaged during routine maintenance (e.g., accidental tool scrapes).
Reduce engine noise: Its rigid structure and material (usually aluminum or high-heat plastic) dampen vibrations from the camshaft and valves. This cuts down on the “tickling” or “rattling” noise common in engine tops—making your Tiggo7 Pro’s ride quieter.
Support auxiliary components: It has built-in features like the oil fill cap (lets you add oil easily) and a port for the PCV valve. The PCV valve vents excess pressure from the crankcase (reducing emissions and oil contamination)—a key feature for the Tiggo7 Pro.

This F4J161003050 cylinder head cover only works for Chery Tiggo7 Pro with the F4J16 engine—wrong fit = oil leaks or damage:
Installing this cover requires precise torque and seal alignment—DIY often leads to oil leaks:
Prep the engine: Techs let the engine cool (hot parts cause burns), remove the old cover (unbolting carefully to avoid damaging the cylinder head), and clean the cylinder head’s sealing surface (removes old gasket residue and oil).
Fit the new gasket: They place a fresh, Tiggo7 Pro-specific gasket on the cylinder head (aligning with seal grooves) to ensure a tight seal.
Mount the new cover: They set F4J161003050 onto the gasket, bolt it down in a “crisscross” pattern (following Chery’s exact torque specs—too tight cracks the cover; too loose causes leaks).
Test for leaks: They add oil (if needed), start the engine, and check for oil drips around the cover’s edge—confirming the seal works before finishing.
Check for oil leaks quarterly: Look for oil stains around the cover’s edge or on the engine block—leaks mean the gasket is aging (needs replacement).
Inspect the cover for cracks: Engine heat or vibration can crack the cover over time—small cracks lead to slow oil leaks (replace the cover fast if found).
Use only Chery-approved oil: Cheap or wrong-viscosity oil can degrade the gasket faster (shortening its life).
Don’t over-tighten during service: If the cover is removed for maintenance (e.g., camshaft work), always follow torque specs—over-tightening warps the cover or strips bolt holes.

This part only fits Chery Tiggo7 Pros with the F4J16 engine—make sure to check your VIN first! It bolts
right onto the engine’s cylinder head, and here’s what it does: keeps engine oil from leaking out (so parts like camshafts and valves stay lubricated), blocks dirt and junk from getting into the engine, quiets down engine noise a bit, and even holds things like the oil fill cap and PCV valve in place.
It definitely won’t work for Tiggo7 Pros with other engines—like the F4J20—or other Chery cars (such as the Tiggo8 Pro), and forget about non-Chery vehicles too. To keep it in good shape, check every 3 months for oil leaks or cracks, and only use the original one—otherwise you might get sealing problems or even damage the engine.
