181837220 Audi RING

Piston rings basically seal the gap between the piston and the cylinder wall inside your engine. They have a few jobs, actually. They control oil – scraping excess oil off the cylinder walls to keep it from burning, and preventing oil from getting into the combustion chamber. They also seal the combustion gases, keeping the pressure up where it needs to be, and they help transfer heat from the piston to the cylinder walls to keep things from overheating. Think of the piston as moving up and down inside a cylinder, kind of like a syringe. The rings ride in grooves on that piston. As it moves, those rings are constantly working to maintain a tight seal. They're a critical part of the engine’s ability to create power. Without them, you'd lose compression, have a lot of oil getting burned, and things would just run really poorly. It’s a pretty simple part, but it has a huge job. If your piston rings wear out or break, you'll notice if you pay attention. You’ll likely see blueish smoke coming from the exhaust, especially on startup or when accelerating. That's the oil getting into the combustion chamber. You’ll also lose power and your fuel economy will suffer. Over time, a bad ring can lead to serious engine damage, because it can cause excessive wear on the cylinder walls. You can find replacements at places like Fixparts Online, and getting them replaced sooner rather than later can save you a lot of money and headaches down the road. They really act like a shield preventing all sorts of problems. Quality you can count on: Piston Ring (MPN 181837220) comes with a 12-month warranty!
