Volvo Automatic Transmission Output Shaft Seal - Genuine Volvo 30713728

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 Volvo

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

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