Default can the intermed pipe gasket be reused?
06 Volvo XC90 4.4l

This is the gasket that goes on each side of the pipe that connects the exhaust manifold to the cat. 4 gaskets total. I realize the book says to replace them. But is it really necessary?

You can reuse them if they are all in that condition.
