My oil dipstick tube feels loose. Is this the right O-ring to fix it?

Yes, absolutely! This O-ring is specifically designed for the oil dipstick tube on all Vanagon models. It's the key component that creates a tight seal, preventing leaks and keeping your dipstick securely in place. Even if your tube just feels a bit wobbly, a fresh O-ring can often resolve that.

Will this O-ring fit my 1985 Vanagon Westfalia?

You bet! This O-ring is a perfect fit for all Vanagon years, from 1980 to 1991, regardless of whether you have a 2WD or 4WD. It’s the standard part used on every GoWesty rebuilt engine and is compatible with all Vanagon models, including the Westfalia and Campmobile, and works with both automatic and manual transmissions. Your dipstick will be snug as a bug!

Why do I need a new O-ring if my engine was rebuilt?

While our GoWesty rebuilt engines come with a new O-ring installed, it's always a good idea to have a spare on hand. O-rings can degrade over time due to heat and oil exposure, and having a backup means you're prepared for unexpected wear or if you need to remove the dipstick tube for any reason down the line. It’s a small part that makes a big difference in keeping your engine bay clean.
