Volkswagen Jack Pad - Genuine VW 3QF803457

Product Information

A jack pad is a small, durable component designed to protect a vehicle’s undercarriage when using a jack to lift it. Typically made of rubber or hardened plastic, jack pads are placed between the vehicle’s jack point and the jack itself, helping to prevent damage to the frame, rocker panels, and other sensitive areas during lifting.

• Visible Cracks or Wear: Over time, jack pads may develop cracks, splits, or wear, especially if frequently used or exposed to rough surfaces. Visible damage can compromise their ability to support the vehicle properly
• Compression or Flattening: A worn jack pad may become compressed or flattened, reducing its effectiveness in protecting the vehicle’s jack points and absorbing pressure during lifting

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.
