VW Auto Trans Output Shaft Seal - Genuine VW 09P321243D

Product Information

An automatic transmission output shaft seal is a critical component that prevents transmission fluid from leaking where the output shaft connects to the driveshaft. It ensures proper lubrication within the transmission and protects it from dirt, debris, and moisture entering the system. Over time, the seal can wear out, harden, or become damaged, leading to leaks and potential driveline issues if not replaced promptly.

• Visible transmission fluid leaks around the driveshaft or under the vehicle.
• Burning smell or smoke caused by leaking fluid contacting hot exhaust parts.
• Unusual noises or vibrations from the driveline due to insufficient lubrication.

About Genuine VW

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 VW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VW” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VW, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VW Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VW are not necessarily manufactured by VW. No cause for concern, as VW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VW 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 VW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming directly 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.
