This is a crankshaft seal designed to prevent oil leakage from the rear of the Volvo engine where the crankshaft exits the engine block. It is manufactured to meet stringent OEM sealing standards, providing a reliable barrier against oil loss compared to a hardened or cracked seal. Symptoms of a failing seal include visible oil leaks at the rear of the engine, often dripping onto the transmission or flywheel housing.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first indication of a failing crankshaft seal is typically a visible oil leak at the rear of the engine, often seen on the transmission housing. If ignored, the oil leak will worsen, potentially leading to low oil levels and inadequate lubrication for critical engine components. Prolonged operation with a severely leaking seal can result in significant oil consumption and damage to the crankshaft and bearing surfaces.
Ensure the crankshaft sealing surface is perfectly clean and free of any burrs or imperfections before installing the new seal. Never use a screwdriver or pry bar to force the seal into place; use an appropriate seal driver.
Inspect the engine's rear main bearing and flywheel for any signs of wear or damage when replacing the crankshaft seal.
