Product Description

The Arrowhead Gear Select Shaft Boot is a crucial component in the drive train gear selector assembly, designed to seal and protect the gear selector shaft where it enters the gearbox. This rubber boot helps prevent dirt, moisture, and debris from entering the gear selector mechanism, ensuring smooth and reliable gear changes over time. Its flexible, accordion-style construction allows it to accommodate movement while maintaining an effective seal.

This part is suitable for various Volkswagen models, including Golf, Jetta I, II, and III, Fox, Caddy, and Polo I. As fitment can vary depending on year, engine size, and engine code, always confirm your vehicle details before ordering to ensure compatibility.

Worn or damaged gear select shaft boots can lead to symptoms such as difficulty shifting gears, increased play or looseness in the gear lever, and potential contamination of the gearbox internals. You may also notice water or dirt entering the selector area, or unusual noises during gear changes.

Replace the gear select shaft boot if you observe any visible cracks, splits, or excessive wear, or if you experience any of the above symptoms. Early replacement helps maintain smooth gear operation and protects the internal components of your gearbox.
