Clutch pushrod seal and other K parts
« on: August 22, 2018, 06:50:12 PM »
http://www.tills.de has a substitute for the despised 'Sau' (clutch pushrod seal 23 21 1451061) available. It's made out of Viton and costs about $10. They decided to manufacture an aftermarket part because availability of the OEM part was unreliable.

I'm making a purchase from there for a variety of K75 parts and I'm getting two of them for myself.

If anyone wants a spare 'Sau' let me know. The OEM part is about $14 plus shipping. I can drop it in an envelope, so the cost will probably be $10 plus a 50 cent stamp.

I'm making the order tomorrow, let me know via PM.

So Vito...this is tougher than OEM?  O ring material right?

Viton is resistant to breakdown by fuel, oil and heat. It's used in many industrial sealing applications including o-rings and washers.
