Detailed Description

FAG SS2345 is designed for engines that require a precise camshaft seal to retain oil at the sealing surface and keep contaminants out of the engine. The nitrile sealing material is paired with a spring-loaded rubber profile and auxiliary lip to support consistent contact at the shaft interface. This helps maintain sealing integrity in high-heat, high-motion engine locations where dimensional accuracy matters.

Fitment coverage includes many Audi and Volkswagen platforms, such as Fits 2010-2012 Audi Q7, N/A; Fits 2006-2007 Volkswagen Touareg, N/A; and Fits 1985-2006 Volkswagen Golf, N/A. It also appears across multiple Audi A4, A6, A8, S4, and S6 applications, plus select Suzuki, Chevrolet, Pontiac, Geo, BMW, Volvo, and Porsche models. Part number SS2345 is also referenced by FAG global number 413 2345 100.

What It Helps Address

• Oil seepage at the camshaft seal area
• Contamination from dirt, dust, and moisture entering the engine sealing zone
• Loss of lubrication at the camshaft end
• Seal wear caused by age, heat, and engine movement
• Leak-related maintenance on Audi, Volkswagen, and other listed vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify bore diameter, outside diameter, and seal width before installation. Confirm engine code, model year, and notes in the fitment list, especially on vehicles with multiple engine configurations such as Audi A4, Audi A6, Volkswagen Jetta, and Volkswagen Passat. Clean the sealing surface thoroughly and inspect the shaft for wear or scoring before fitting the new seal.

For best results, match the application details exactly to the vehicle listing. This part number, SS2345, is used across a broad range of engines, so confirming the correct engine variant is important before service.

Quality Assurance

FAG designs seals to meet manufacturer specifications and works with suppliers to maintain its quality standards. The sealing construction is intended for demanding engine service where dimensional consistency and contamination control are important.
