Overview
The ZF 0730.003.514 WASHER for WG200 is an OEM genuine sealing component engineered to maintain critical clearances within the transmission assembly. This precision-machined washer sits between the TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the HOUSING to prevent axial play and fluid migration. As a factory-spec part, SKU 0730.003.514 ensures exact fitment and load distribution in the WG 200 Series, directly supporting the GROOVED STUD retention system. Without this washer, internal components risk misalignment under torque.
Symptoms of Failure
- Transmission oil seepage at housing joints – A worn 0730.003.514 washer allows pressurized fluid to escape, leaving visible residue around the TYPE PLATE area.
- Gear engagement hesitation – Loss of washer thickness creates excessive clearance, delaying clutch pack activation during shifts.
- Metallic rattling from bell housing – Degraded washer material permits vibration between the transmission housing and cover plate, audible at idle.
- Torque converter shudder – Incorrect washer stack height alters converter-to-pump alignment, causing low-speed vibration.
