Elring 757.497 Engine Crankshaft Seal - Front

Elring Crankshaft Seal for OE-Style Engine Repair

The Elring 757.497 engine crankshaft seal is built for precise sealing at the crankshaft, helping maintain proper engine oil control in demanding front or timing-end applications. With FPM (fluoride rubber) construction, a 42.0 mm inside diameter, 56.0 mm outside diameter, and 7.0 mm thickness, this seal is specified for a tight, accurate fit.

Detailed Description

Elring 757.497 is an engine crankshaft seal designed around the listed OE dimensions and seal profile. The FPM material is selected for use in engine environments where heat and oil exposure are present, while the dust lip adds an extra barrier against road grit and debris. This seal is specified for vehicles including Chevrolet Aveo, Chevrolet Aveo5, Pontiac G3, and select Ford applications where the same crankshaft seal dimensions are required. This part cross-references Four Seasons 76144 for the same application.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Engine oil leaking from the crankshaft seal area
• Oil seepage at the front or timing-end seal location
• Contamination entering the seal surface from dust and debris
• Seal wear caused by age, heat, and repeated engine cycling
• Incorrect sealing after service when OE dimensions are not matched

Before installation, confirm the seal dimensions, swirl direction, and position against the removed part and the vehicle service information. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect the crankshaft journal for wear or scoring before pressing in the new seal. Elring 757.497 should be installed squarely to avoid distortion and premature leakage.
