Product Description

The Arrowhead Breather Box on Engine Block is designed to manage crankcase ventilation for select Seat and Volkswagen engines. This breather box directs blow-by gases from the engine block into the intake system, helping to maintain proper engine pressure and reduce oil contamination. Constructed from durable plastic with secure hose connection points and mounting features, it is engineered for a precise fit on compatible models.

This part is suitable for certain Seat and Volkswagen vehicles, including models such as the VW Polo 9N from 2003 to 2009 with specific 1.4 16V and 1.6 8V engines. Always confirm your vehicle’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.

Common symptoms of a faulty engine breather box include increased oil consumption, visible oil leaks around the engine block, rough idling, poor engine performance, excessive crankcase pressure, and the presence of oily residue in the air intake. A blocked or damaged breather box can also trigger warning lights or lead to failed emissions tests.

Replace the breather box if you notice oil leaks, pressure build-up, or performance issues, as continued use of a faulty unit can cause further engine damage. Regular inspection during servicing can help identify early signs of wear or blockage.
