Hi,

The electronic speedo drive on my S3 gearbox is leaking slightly. I popped the drive out and the seal is a rubber O ring. I can't seem to find the part anywhere. All the usual places have a smaller seal for a mechanical drive but nobody has the electric sensor seal.

I don't suppose anyone on here knows where I might find one??

Unless it's a non-standard size then you might get lucky buying an o-ring kit.

Lots of o-ring suppliers out there if you can measure it - Inside Diameter and thickness.

I assume any rubber O ring will do as its only holding back gearbox oil and it wont get that hot. Ebay seems to have a huge choice of Nitrile O rings so I'll try one of those.
