Oil leakage at the bell housing cover and a sluggish downshift pattern are classic signs that an AW55 in a Volvo 240 is starting to get tired. During an overhaul the seals are the first thing you tackle, and that's when gaskets and O-rings are the parts most often replaced to stop the leak toward the engine bay and the driveshaft tunnel.

This group includes gaskets, O-rings, gears, spring kits, dipstick tubes, screw, locking pin and lock washer – parts that cover both sealing and internal renovation of the automatic-shifted power transmission. An intact dipstick tube is worth checking at the same time, since the correct oil level is directly decisive for how smoothly the box shifts.
This category gathers parts that fit the 240 model's AW55 transmission. Since the 240/260 series was built for many years, it's always worth verifying the parts against the car's specification before starting the job.
