Product Description

The Arrowhead Breather Box on Engine Block is designed for Volkswagen vehicles, serving as a crucial part of the engine's ventilation system. This breather box helps manage crankcase gases, preventing excess pressure build-up and ensuring the engine runs smoothly. Its robust plastic housing features integrated breather tubing and secure mounting points for reliable fitment on the engine block.

This breather engine component is compatible with selected Volkswagen models. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure correct fitment before ordering.

Common symptoms of a faulty or blocked breather box include increased oil consumption, engine oil leaks, rough idling, excessive exhaust smoke, poor engine performance, and a noticeable drop in fuel efficiency. You may also notice a strong smell of oil vapour or see oil residue near the breather box area.

If you experience any of these issues, it is advisable to inspect and replace the breather box promptly. Regular replacement is recommended when the part becomes clogged, cracked, or shows signs of deterioration to maintain optimal engine performance.
