Product Description
This Arrowhead gearbox sump is designed for use in the drive train of select Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen models. The gearbox sump serves as the lower pan of the transmission, containing transmission fluid and helping to keep the gearbox lubricated and cool during operation. Its robust stamped metal construction and reinforced design ensure a secure fit and effective fluid containment. The large circular opening and bolt flange allow for straightforward installation and proper sealing with the gearbox assembly.
Compatibility includes a range of Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen vehicles. However, gearbox sumps can vary between models, years, engine sizes, and engine codes. Always confirm your vehicle's exact details before purchasing to ensure correct fitment.
Symptoms of a failing or damaged gearbox sump can include visible fluid leaks under the vehicle, low transmission fluid levels, difficulty shifting gears, transmission overheating, or the presence of metal shavings in the transmission fluid. You might also notice a burning smell from the transmission area or warning lights on the dashboard related to transmission performance.
Replacing a damaged or leaking gearbox sump is crucial to prevent loss of transmission fluid and subsequent gearbox damage. It is recommended to inspect the sump and replace it if you notice leaks, damage, or corrosion, or when servicing the transmission fluid and filter.
