Timken Engine Crankshaft Seal P/N:9845
National 9845 front crankshaft seal for the 2005-2007 Chevrolet Equinox 3.4L and other vehicles holds engine oil in at the front of the engine, staying stationary while the crankshaft turns against it.
Oil dripping from the front of the engine or a steadily dropping oil level can mean the engine crankshaft seal is leaking. A valve cover gasket, an oil pan gasket or a timing cover gasket can leave oil in the same area, so find where the oil is coming from before you buy.
It also fits the 1997-2003 Chevrolet Malibu V6-3.1L and the 2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala V6-3.4L, along with a wide range of Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, Oldsmobile and Pontiac models. Each engine takes one seal. If your car isn't named here, look up your year and engine on the Buyer's Guide tab.
Does the National 9845 front crankshaft seal fit a 2005-2007 Chevrolet Equinox 3.4L?

Is the National 9845 right for a 1997-2003 Chevrolet Malibu V6-3.1L?
Yes. National 9845 is listed for the 1997-2003 Chevrolet Malibu V6-3.1L, one seal per engine. It also fits the 2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala V6-3.4L.
Is this National crankshaft seal a front or rear seal?
This is a front crankshaft seal. It sits at the front of the crankshaft, so it is not the seal for the rear of the engine.
Does the National 9845 front crankshaft seal stay still while the crankshaft turns?
Yes. The seal body stays stationary while the crankshaft turns inside its lip, which holds engine oil in at the front of the engine; National 9845 is sold for that front position.
How can I tell if a front crankshaft seal is leaking?
With the engine off and cool, look for oil seeping at the front of the engine. Oil dripping there or a falling oil level can mean the seal is leaking; a shop can confirm the source.
