As a world-renowned manufacturer of sealing technology, ELRING produces these seals using high-grade fluoroelastomers (FPM\/FKM) that remain flexible and resilient despite constant exposure to extreme heat, pressure, and chemical degradation from engine oil additives. A failed or hardened valve stem seal is the most common cause of \"blue smoke\" emitting from the exhaust during cold starts or after idling, as oil pools in the combustion chamber through gravity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer:\u003c\/strong\u003e ELRING\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 702.706\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Condition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent Classification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Valve Stem Seal Set\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Premium Fluoroelastomer (High-Heat Resistance)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Set of 8 seals (typical for 8-valve cylinder heads)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVehicle Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis seal set is precision-engineered for the legendary VAG 8-valve engine family, spanning from the early 1980s through the mid-2000s:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eCar Model \/ Platform\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eCompatible Engine Configurations\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eProduction Era\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVW Golf Mk1 \/ Mk2 \/ Mk3\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.3 \/ 1.6 \/ 1.8 8v Petrol engines\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1980 - 1998\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVW Polo (6N \/ 86C)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.0 \/ 1.3 \/ 1.4 Petrol engines\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1985 - 1999\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVW Transporter (T3 \/ T4)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1.8 \/ 1.9 \/ 2.0 8v Petrol engines\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1982 - 2003\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkoda \/ Seat\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVarious 8v Petrol engines\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1990s - 2000s\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e⚠️ \u003cstrong\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Technical Warning:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfessional Precision:\u003c\/strong\u003e Installing valve stem seals requires removing the camshaft and cylinder head (or using a specialized \"valve-in-head\" spring compressor tool).
