Product Description
This Arrowhead hose breather seal valve cover is designed for the breather engine system on selected Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen models. It serves as a rubber seal that fits into the valve cover, providing a secure, airtight passage for the breather hose. Over time, the original seal can harden or crack, leading to air leaks and reduced engine performance.
This part is compatible with various Audi, Seat, and Volkswagen vehicles. However, fitment can vary between models and engine variants, so it is essential to confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering.
Common symptoms of a faulty hose breather seal include oil leaks around the valve cover, increased oil consumption, rough idling, poor engine performance, and a noticeable smell of oil vapours. You may also notice a check engine light or visible cracks and hardening of the existing seal.
If you observe any of these issues, replacing the breather seal is recommended to restore proper engine ventilation and prevent contamination or vacuum leaks. Installation is straightforward, but always ensure the new seal is seated correctly to maintain a proper seal.
Order this part with confidence from MiMi Auto Parts. We offer nationwide delivery in South Africa and are happy to assist you in confirming compatibility for your vehicle.
