WHT007480A — Injector Seal Ring / Seal Kit

WHT007480A is the Volkswagen Group OE number for the injector nozzle seal ring (sometimes listed as a complete seal kit) used to seal each fuel injector against the cylinder head on VAG common-rail TDI diesel engines. The seal carries combustion-pressure heat and prevents blow-by past the injector body; suppliers list it under "seal ring" or "seal kit" interchangeably depending on whether the package includes additional support washers. All listings on this page are OE-equivalent replacements for WHT007480A.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This OE seal is fitted to VW Group TDI common-rail diesel engines across all eight VAG passenger-car brands listed under the OE number: Audi (A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, Q3, Q5, Q7, Q8), Volkswagen (Golf, Passat, Tiguan, Touareg, Sharan, Caddy, Transporter), Skoda (Octavia, Superb, Yeti, Kodiaq, Karoq), SEAT (Leon, Ibiza, Alhambra, Ateca), Cupra (Leon performance variants), Porsche (Cayenne, Macan diesel), Bentley (Bentayga 4.0 V8 TDI), and the VAG-listed parent-brand variants. Production years span approximately 2007 to current. See the detailed vehicle list below for engine codes and chassis coverage. Replace all injector seals as a set, even if only one injector is being serviced.
