Audi VW Turbocharger Mount Heat Shield - Genuine Audi VW 06Q133833A

Product Information

A Turbocharger Mount Heat Shield is a protective metal cover or barrier installed around the turbocharger and its mounting area. Since turbochargers operate at extremely high temperatures, the heat shield is designed to protect nearby components (hoses, wiring, engine parts, and body panels) from excessive heat exposure.

• Rattling or metallic noises – caused by a loose or broken heat shield vibrating at certain engine speeds.
• Burning smell – nearby hoses, wires, or plastic components overheating.
• Visible heat damage – melted wiring, cracked hoses, or scorched paint near the turbo area.

About Genuine VW Audi

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VAG to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VAG” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VAG, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VAG Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VAG are not necessarily manufactured by VAG. No cause for concern, as VAG designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VAG for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VAG parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VAG logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
