01X311653A Audi DOWEL PIN

These are basically little cylindrical rods, and their job is to precisely align things. Think of them like tiny, super accurate guides. They keep parts lined up perfectly during assembly and while the vehicle is running. They’re used to locate and secure things together, preventing misalignment. Specifically with a gearbox – and that’s where you’re looking, right? – they keep the various housings, plates, and components of the transmission lined up. They ensure everything fits together smoothly and operates as it should. They're used in a lot of places, actually, but the gearbox is a critical spot. They’re often used to align gear shafts, bearing bores, and things like that. If a dowel pin fails or breaks, you’ll probably notice it pretty quickly. Misalignment can lead to vibration, noise, and eventually, serious damage to the gearbox. It acts like a shield against those kinds of problems. It’s not something you want to ignore. They’re relatively inexpensive parts, and replacing a broken dowel pin is a lot easier – and cheaper – than rebuilding a whole transmission. You can find a good selection of them at places like Fixparts Online, and it’s worth getting the right size and material for your application. They don’t always make a lot of noise when they’re going bad, so if you're doing other work on the gearbox, it's a good idea to inspect them and replace any that look worn or damaged. Next-gen performance: Dowel Pin (MPN 01X311653A) is backed by a 12-month warranty!
