079611853 Audi RING

These rings basically seal the gap between the piston and the cylinder wall inside your engine. There are usually several rings per piston – one or two compression rings to keep combustion pressure from leaking past, and then an oil control ring to manage the oil and keep it from getting into the combustion chamber where it would burn off and cause smoke. They scrape excess oil off the cylinder walls as the piston moves. They're absolutely critical to how your engine runs. The piston is moving up and down constantly, and those rings maintain that seal so you get good compression. That compression is what allows the fuel and air mixture to ignite properly and give you power. Without a good seal, you lose power, get poor fuel economy, and can even end up with engine damage. They’re really the heart of what makes an engine efficient. You’ll notice if these start to go bad. You’ll likely see blue smoke coming from your exhaust, especially on startup or when accelerating, because oil is getting into the combustion chamber. You might also notice a drop in power, or your engine just isn't running as smoothly. Low compression is the big giveaway. Worn rings basically mean lost compression. They act like a shield preventing all those important things from leaking where they shouldn’t. Replacing them, often as part of a larger engine rebuild, gets everything sealed up tight again.
