Your Amarok can be a working truck, a tow vehicle and the way you get away at the weekend. This Almont front guard gives the engine, steering, cooling system and front differential a substantial 8 mm duralumin barrier, with separate 2.0 TDI and 3.0 V6 TDI versions for the first-generation truck.
Both versions use 8 mm HeavyDuty duralumin and weigh 14.5 kg. Choose PDWA8A8 for the 2.0 TDI or PDWAV6A8 for the 3.0 V6 TDI. Match the reference to your engine to get the right front guard for your Amarok.
Choose PDWA8A8 for 2.0 TDI or PDWAV6A8 for 3.0 V6 TDI. These are the complete codes shown in the Front Type selector.
This is certified AW5083 H111 duralumin: a high-strength aluminium alloy that keeps material weight below steel of the same size and thickness. You get a substantial barrier beneath the vehicle, and a scratch in the plate does not turn into red rust. It is still worth keeping the alloy and the separate steel mounting hardware clean, especially after winter salt or muddy trips.
Almont has specialised in vehicle protection since 1992, with input from vehicle preparers involved in the Dakar Rally and other rally-raid events. Its protection is designed and manufactured in Spain. You are choosing specialist underbody protection for the parts of your vehicle that have to face the rough ground first.

For a 2.0 TDI, add the separate Amarok gearbox guard. For a second-generation truck, choose the 2023-onwards Amarok front guard instead.
Pressure wash the protection at least once a year, or two or three times a year if you regularly drive in mud or road salt. Check bolt tightness annually and follow the fitting instructions when refitting a plate after maintenance.
PDWAV6A8 is the 3.0 V6 TDI guard. PDWA8A8 is for the 2.0 TDI.
No. That generation uses the separate front guard linked in the description.
The protection plate, matching steel mounting supports, pre-installed fixings, certificate and instruction manual, and Almont sticker. Other guards linked on this page are separate purchases.
The duralumin plate will not form red rust when scratched. Wash off mud and road salt to help prevent other corrosion and to look after the separate steel brackets and fixings.
Almont provides three years of cover against cracking of the plate. Dents, deformation and damage to the vehicle are excluded.
