This ensures compatibility and performance consistency for emission control systems in Audi and Volkswagen vehicles. The 17206 part number belongs to this line, offering a balance of quality and fitment accuracy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details and Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Bosch oxygen sensor features a heated design to reduce warm-up time and improve sensor response. The wide-band sensor type allows for precise measurement of oxygen levels in the exhaust, which is critical for engine management systems. The sensor includes a 24.6-inch wiring harness with five wires terminated in blade-style terminals, connected via an oblong male connector. The sensor mounts using an 18 mm threaded fitting and requires a 22 mm hex tool for installation. The metal housing provides durability under high-temperature conditions, and the overall length from sealing surface to connector end is approximately 26.8 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Common Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement oxygen sensor for Audi A3 models requiring part number 17206\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for Volkswagen Golf, Golf Alltrack, Golf SportWagen, GTI, and Jetta models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHelps resolve issues such as poor fuel economy, rough idling, and failed emissions tests\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses check engine light triggers related to oxygen sensor faults\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports proper engine performance and reduced exhaust emissions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnsure the vehicle is cool before removing the old oxygen sensor to avoid burns. Use a 22 mm oxygen sensor socket or wrench for removal and installation. Verify the wiring harness length and connector type match the vehicle’s factory sensor to ensure proper fitment. Do not overtighten the sensor to prevent thread damage.
