The Elring exhaust gasket 694614 (OEM 443253115A) seals the connection between the exhaust manifold and header pipe on select Audi models with the 2.3L inline-5 engine. This crush-type gasket prevents exhaust leaks that can affect performance and emissions. It is a direct replacement for the factory gasket on many 1980s–1990s Audi vehicles.
