Gearbox Filter Housing Aluminum Alloy for VW Audi DQ380 DQ381 DQ500
Restore precise shifting performance in your Volkswagen or Audi equipped with a DQ380, DQ381, or DQ500 seven-speed DSG transmission with this VOLM gearbox oil filter housing. Engineered from precision-forged aluminium alloy, this replacement unit addresses common failure points found in original manufacturing materials by providing superior thermal stability and pressure containment under heavy loads. Its robust design safeguards the hydraulic circuit, preventing fluid leaks that trigger warning lights or cause delayed gear engagement.
Benefits & Practical Tips
- Upgrading to a forged aluminium shell significantly improves heat dissipation compared to stock casting, protecting sensitive valve-body electronics during sustained highway cruising or dynamic driving.
- Replace the internal mesh filter element during the same service interval to maintain optimal fluid flow and prevent premature pump wear.
- Clean the transmission mating flange thoroughly before bolting the new housing in place; checking bolt seating angles first cross-threading risks.
