The factory fitted seal is poor design and quality and within just a few years from new it begins to break down. This is a problem because as the seal begins to crack and fall apart, air begins to leak into the fuel tank triggering the EVAP warning system (common fault codes for this are P0455 P0456 P0440 P0442), the cracking of the seal would also allow fuel to escape if the vehicle is overturned hence the MOT failure.

    High quality seal, to replace your original VW item

    Outstanding quality, and very easy to exchange over the original fuel cap seal. Volkswagen do not supply a replacement seal for their fuel caps, they expect you to purchase a comple new fuel cap, costing quite a bit of money. When you buy a completely new fuel cap you then lose the ability to use the original key to lock it. This new seal was the perfect replacement for the old one, that the MOT test centre said needed replacing, and it is very high quality as well, It was exactly the same size and dimension as the original, so i am more than pleased with my purchase.

    Solid ring not like original

  • superior to original

    I bought this product as a replacement for original VW part which had cracked and resulted in an MoT fail. This replacement seal is a solid ring of nitrile rubber which is far superior to the original in both material and design. It is very easy to fit and provides a tight seal and the cap is much easier to unlock it's fitted . Hopefully this will be a lot more resistant to petrol (being made of nitrile rubber) and last a lot longer than the original.

  • Does exactly what it says on the tin

    Simple to fit, and clearly a superior design to the original seal. Rather disappointing that VW didn't fit a similar seal from the factory. Still, glad to purchase such a high quality after-market part, at a low price.
