🔧 Product Description
Genuine Volvo Penta core plug from the Engine group, weighing 0.023 kg and listed for 398 applications across the V and DPX families - much the widest fitment of the six core plugs in this run, the others listing 351, 136, 29, 29 and 29. It supersedes part number 835039, which was catalogued earlier as an expansion plug; core plug and expansion plug are the same item under a changed name, so an old parts list calling for 835039 is calling for this. Despite the word core in its name this is a fitted component, not a core deposit: it is a plug you buy and install, with no refundable charge and nothing to return. No diameter is published for any of the six core plugs listed here, and the published weights are not a safe guide to plug size, so measure the bore and order by part number.

- Engine Family: V, DPX

⚙️ Key Features
- 0.023 kg
- 398 applications across the V and DPX families
- The widest fitment of the six core plugs listed here
- Supersedes 835039, catalogued earlier as an expansion plug
- Engine group
🔌 Function
Seals one of the core holes left in the casting when the sand core is withdrawn after casting, closing the passage behind it and keeping its fluid in.
⚠️ Common Signs of Failure
- A damp or crusty trail running down the casting from a round plug
- A slow loss of coolant with no hose, gasket or joint leak to be found
- The plug visibly domed, dished or standing proud of its bore
- Corrosion pitting round the rim of the plug, or the plug found loose when it is tapped
🛠️ Service Notes
- Clean the bore back to bare metal and use a sealant suited to the fluid behind the plug, since a plug driven into a corroded bore will weep however well it is fitted
- Drive the plug squarely and to the depth of the one that came out - over-driving it can push it right through into the passage behind
- Old parts lists and workshop notes may still call this an expansion plug or quote 835039 - it is the same plug, so there is no need to look for a separate part
