Audi VW Exhaust Valve - Mahle 06D109611L

Product Information

An engine exhaust valve is a component inside the cylinder head that controls the release of burned gases from the combustion chamber after the air-fuel mixture has been ignited. It works in tandem with the intake valve, which allows fresh air and fuel into the cylinder. Exhaust valves are typically made of heat-resistant steel to withstand high temperatures and pressure.

• Poor Engine Performance / Power Loss: Incomplete exhaust evacuation reduces cylinder efficiency.
• Engine Misfires: Burned, bent, or leaking valves can cause misfires or rough idle.
• Excessive Smoke from Exhaust: White, blue, or black smoke may result from oil burning or improper combustion.

About Mahle

Mahle began in 1920 when pistons made of heavy gray cast iron were being used in internal combustion engines for automobiles and there was a need for a new design. The Mahle brothers countered this trend by producing light-alloy pistons at their small, newly established company however the technology was still finicky and problems come up frequently. They soon determined that they needed to come up with a solution to keep dirt and dust out of the engine so they eventually developed air and oil filters as well. Their perseverance paid off and the light-alloy pistons began to take over the market. Today, half of all automobiles produced worldwide contain MAHLE components. MAHLE offers an extensive range of parts for everyone including pistons, cylinder liners, piston ring sets, bearings, assemblies, valves, valve train components, and air, oil, fuel, and cabin air filters. Their catalog and online database of aftermarket engine components is an indispensable reference.
