Refundable Core Charge

If a product you are purchasing has a core charge you will see it in your shopping cart under the product.

A core charge is a little like a bottle deposit. You pay a core charge when you buy a rebuildable product, and get your money back when you return the core.

Cores are the used parts that may be returned when purchasing rebuildable parts. New, used, and remanufactured products may have a core charge. We send cores to our rebuilders to create a remanufactured part. Having a core charge on most rebuildable parts helps us keep our prices low, is a great way to recycle, and ensures there is product available for the next customer. If a core deposit is shown, this charge will be added to your total at the time of sale but is refundable upon the return of your rebuildable original part. Cores are valuable to us; we need them back on a timely basis to be rebuilt so we have product to sell to the next customers. (See core return policy under warranties and return for more info)

If you have any concerns or questions about the core charge or shipping charges, please call us at 586.757.2300.

1.5L Diesel Mechanical Head Gasket. Quality in your Volkswagen Diesel head gasket is imperative. Save somewhere else but insist on a high quality OEM head gasket. We sell only Goetze, Elring or Victor Reinz. Less expensive head gaskets are ok on gas cars, but never on a diesel. They vary by thickness, as defined by the number of notches, grooves or holes on the exposed tab. The bigger the number, the thicker the head gasket.

Condition: New

Warranty

All products carry a 100 day warranty. Engines, cylinder heads, and injection pumps carry an extended 12 month warranty. See our warranty page for details.

Do-it-Yourself Tip

If you need a head gasket, you'll also need a head gasket set which includes intake, exhaust, and valve cover gaskets and all the seals including the cam seal, valve stem seals, and heat shields. Don't forget new head bolts (could be 11mm part #12306, or 12mm part #15551). Also, we strongly recommend an oil baffle for all diesels with more than 75K miles.
