Can the Oil Leakage of Audi Crankshaft Oil Seal Be Ignored?
1 Answers
Crankshaft oil seal leakage should be taken seriously and addressed promptly. Reasons for crankshaft oil seal leakage: It is found that the crankshaft oil seal is misaligned inside the sealing seat, causing the oil seal to tilt relative to the outer circle of the crankshaft; during the installation process, the chamfer angle of the aperture is too large, leading to biting or scratching of the crankshaft oil seal, which results in deformation of the outer diameter of the crankshaft oil seal and the oil seal frame. This can easily cause early-stage oil seal failure, leading to oil seepage or leakage. Introduction to oil seals: Oil seal is a common term for general sealing, simply put, it is the sealing of lubricating oil. It is a mechanical component used to seal grease (oil is the most common liquid substance in transmission systems, and also generally refers to liquid substances). It isolates the components that need lubrication in the transmission system from the output components, preventing lubricating oil from leaking. Sealing components used for static sealing and dynamic sealing (generally reciprocating motion) are called oil seals. The representative form of oil seal is the TC oil seal, which is a double-lip oil seal fully covered with rubber and equipped with a self-tightening spring. The commonly referred oil seal often means this TC skeleton oil seal.
