0AQ301316A Volkswagen WEIGHT

This part’s pretty simple, really. It’s basically a heavy counterweight attached to the input shaft of your gearbox. It helps balance things out, and dampen vibrations. Think of it like a really solid flywheel, but specifically designed for a gearbox, not the engine. It’s designed to spin with the input shaft. Its main job is to keep the whole drivetrain smoother. It helps absorb some of the twisting forces, especially when you're shifting gears or under load. It’s right there inside the gearbox, working constantly as you drive. It's pretty fundamental to how well everything meshes and operates inside the transmission. Well, without it, you’ll notice if it fails. You’ll start feeling a lot more vibration, especially at certain speeds. That vibration can damage other parts inside the gearbox over time, leading to expensive repairs. It acts like a shield protecting the gears and bearings. If it’s broken or worn, it’s just letting all that force run free. You can find replacements pretty easily; we stock a lot of them at Fixparts Online, or most auto parts stores will carry something similar. It’s a relatively inexpensive part compared to the damage a failing one can cause. Built to endure: Weight (MPN 0AQ301316A) comes with a 12-month warranty!
