FEBI40072 Febi Shaft Seal

This seal’s job is pretty straightforward – it keeps the transmission fluid in and dirt, water, and debris out. It sits right where the transmission output shaft comes out of the transmission housing. Think of it like a gasket, but specifically designed to handle the rotational motion of that shaft. It’s usually a rubber or synthetic material that’s pressed into place. Basically, it's a critical part of the drivetrain. The drivetrain is everything that gets power from the engine to the wheels, and the transmission is a huge piece of that. The transmission shaft connects the transmission to the axles. That seal is at the point where that shaft spins, so it’s constantly working. Without a good seal, things will leak. Well, transmission fluid is vital for smooth shifting and the overall health of your transmission. If that seal fails, you’ll start losing fluid. You’ll notice if it does – usually a reddish – colored leak under your vehicle, and eventually you might get some slipping or rough shifting. Losing too much fluid can seriously damage the transmission, and those repairs are expensive. A failing seal can also let dirt and water get in, which can grind things up inside and cause even more problems. It’s one of those relatively inexpensive parts that can save you a lot of headache and money in the long run if you replace it when it starts to show signs of wear. You can often find a good replacement pretty easily, Fixparts Online carries a lot of them, but really any reputable auto parts store should have it in stock for your vehicle.
