Full model list at the end of this description.

⚙️ Key Features

• 0.181 kg
• 50 applications across D, TMD and TAMD engines
• Starter drive return spring

🔌 Function

Pushes the starter drive back out of engagement once the start command ends, so the pinion cannot stay meshed with a running engine.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Pinion staying engaged after the engine has started
• Slow or hesitant disengagement
• Repeat damage to pinion and ring gear teeth
• Spring found broken, collapsed or corroded
• Starter that only disengages when the key is cycled

🛠️ Service Notes

• Seal 3830025 is listed for the same 50 applications and sits in the same drive assembly — fit both together
• A spring that has taken a set looks intact but returns weakly, so compare free length against a new one rather than judging by eye

📦 Condition

• Genuine Volvo Penta part
• Brand new
• Supplied in original or equivalent packaging
