06F-133-073-D Genuine VW/Audi Throttle Body Gasket

Genuine VW/Audi 06F-133-073-D is the throttle body gasket for the compatible 2.0L gasoline applications listed below. It seals the throttle body's mating joint, helping keep intake air within the intended path through the assembly.

Technical details

• OEM part number: 06F-133-073-D.
• Sealing location: throttle body mounting joint.
• Supplied as a gasket; the throttle body, actuator and mounting hardware are separate components.
• The listed A3, GTI, Golf R and Tiguan applications have specific model-year limits. The table does not establish diesel-engine compatibility.

Common reasons to replace

Replace the gasket if it is torn, cut, hardened, distorted or damaged during throttle body removal. A confirmed air leak at the mating joint is another reason for replacement. Inspect the existing gasket whenever the throttle body is removed for cleaning, replacement or adjacent intake-system work, and renew it when the workshop procedure requires a new seal.

Leakage at an intake joint may contribute to rough idle, unexpected fuel-trim correction or poor drivability. These symptoms do not prove that the gasket is faulty; inspect the rest of the intake tract and verify the leak location. A gasket cannot repair a failed throttle actuator, damaged throttle housing or electrical fault. Clean the mating surfaces, seat the seal correctly and follow the vehicle-specific fastening and adaptation procedures when the throttle assembly is serviced.

Fitment

Confirm the engine, VIN, and installed throttle-body seal part number before ordering.
