B5 Passat Gearbox Shaft Oil Seal - 1996-00 (Manual)

This gearbox shaft oil seal is designed for VW Passat B5 models with 5-speed or 6-speed manual transmissions, covering build years from August 1996 to November 2000. It features a 24mm outer diameter, ensuring a secure and leak-free fit around the input or output shaft of the gearbox.

Crafted from high-quality elastomeric materials, this seal offers superior resistance to heat, pressure, and gearbox oil contamination. Its primary function is to prevent transmission fluid from leaking around the rotating gearbox shaft, ensuring the gearbox operates smoothly and remains properly lubricated.

Replacing worn or hardened seals during gearbox service is critical to maintaining proper gearbox pressure and preventing fluid loss, which can lead to premature wear and shifting issues.
