T4,G3,G4 Front Exhaust Pipe Gasket - 2.0 Petrol (AAC) + 2.5 Petrol (AAF,ACU)

Restore a reliable, gas-tight seal between your exhaust manifold and front downpipe with this high-quality exhaust gasket. Designed as a direct replacement for worn or damaged original gaskets, it helps eliminate exhaust leaks, reduce unwanted noise and maintain correct exhaust flow for optimum engine performance.

Located between the exhaust manifold and the front downpipe, this gasket is exposed to constant heat cycles and vibration. Over time it can deteriorate, leading to exhaust leaks, reduced engine efficiency and increased exhaust noise. Replacing the gasket whenever the exhaust is removed or serviced is recommended to ensure a proper seal and prevent future leaks.

Manufactured from high-temperature resistant materials, this gasket is suitable for both routine maintenance and exhaust repairs on a wide range of Volkswagen models. It is ideal for standard replacement or when fitting a new manifold or downpipe.
