Rear Reservoir Removal Wrench for Audi e-tron

Brief Overview

This is a precision-engineered removal wrench designed specifically for Audi e-tron rear axle reservoir caps (2019 and later). The tool simplifies a critical maintenance task—draining fluid from leaking rear reservoirs—by providing a secure, non-slip grip on the reservoir cap during removal and installation. As a specialist supplier, you'll recognize the value of offering OEM-specific tools that reduce labor time and prevent customer damage claims. Pair this with timing chain tensioning tools for VAG 4.0L engines and rear axle service kits to build a comprehensive Audi service offering.

Key Features

  • Engineered Fit: 73mm outer diameter and 60mm inner diameter precisely match Audi e-tron rear reservoir caps
  • Ribbed Grip Design: Vertical molded ribs on the outer perimeter ensure firm hand grip and prevent slipping during cap removal
  • Square-Drive Integration: Short square-drive boss (compatible with 27mm hexagonal socket) attaches to standard ratchets or pneumatic drivers for powered removal
  • Durable Plastic Construction: Reinforced black plastic with metal-reinforced drive boss withstands repeated cycles without wear or deformation
  • Internal Star Vent Pattern: Molded triangular openings in the cup floor reduce suction resistance during cap removal, preventing air-lock issues
  • OEM Reference Compliance: T40409 specification ensures compatibility with genuine Audi service requirements
