8P7827373E Volkswagen RING

Piston rings basically seal the gap between the piston and the cylinder wall inside your engine. There are usually a few different rings per piston – typically one oil control ring to manage oil, and a couple compression rings to keep the combustion pressure where it needs to be. They slide up and down inside the cylinder with the piston, and that’s how they create those seals. Think of the piston as what’s actually pushing the power down to turn the crankshaft, and the rings are crucial for that process to work efficiently. They maintain the pressure from the burning fuel, so you get good power and minimal blow – by – that’s when combustion gases leak past the piston. They also spread a thin film of oil on the cylinder wall, lubricating everything and reducing friction. Without good rings, you lose a lot of that power, and things wear out quickly. When rings wear out, you’ll notice if you’re losing power, getting lower fuel economy, or seeing blue smoke coming from your exhaust – that smoke is burning oil getting past the rings. It’s a pretty significant repair if left unaddressed because that blow – by can damage other engine components. Replacing them restores compression, reduces oil consumption, and gets your engine running strong again. You can find a good selection of piston rings, and the right ones for your specific vehicle, over at Fixparts Online. They’re a relatively small part, but they have a huge impact on how your engine performs. Why settle for less? Piston Ring (MPN 8P7827373E) includes a 12-month warranty!
