Detailed Description

SKF 16507 is an automatic transmission oil pump seal designed around exact dimensional requirements for the Volkswagen Vanagon transmission application. The seal’s 2.172-inch outside diameter, 1.654-inch shaft diameter, and 0.315-inch width support a precise fit at the pump interface, helping maintain proper fluid retention in the transmission assembly. SKF has a long history in seal engineering, and this part reflects that focus on material selection and application-specific design. This part cross-references 003-519-089D and 145816507 for the same application.

What This Seal Helps Address

• Transmission fluid leakage at the oil pump seal area
• Fluid loss caused by worn or hardened sealing surfaces
• Contamination entering the transmission through a compromised seal
• Poor sealing at the front transmission pump interface
• Service replacement needs on Volkswagen Vanagon automatic transmission repairs

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm shaft diameter and seal dimensions before installation. Inspect the pump bore, shaft surface, and surrounding sealing area for wear, scoring, or debris before fitting the new seal. Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly and install the seal squarely to avoid distortion. For Volkswagen Vanagon automatic transmission service, verify front-position application details against the vehicle’s transmission configuration before assembly.
