Detailed Description

Delphi AS10311 is an ignition knock sensor for vehicles that rely on precise detonation monitoring to help the engine control system adjust ignition timing. This sensor is listed for Volkswagen Beetle, Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Passat, and Audi TT RS Quattro applications, making it a focused replacement for select European platforms. The AS10311 uses a male oval connector with three terminals and is supplied as the sensor only.

Delphi validates its sensor lineup to OE standards and calibrates each unit for accurate readings. That OE-focused process helps maintain consistent signal quality and reduces the chance of repeat repairs. This part cross-references Standard Ignition KS315 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Knock sensor fault codes
• Engine pinging or detonation-related drivability issues
• Incorrect ignition timing response
• Rough running caused by inaccurate knock feedback
• Check engine light conditions tied to knock sensor failure

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and sensor location before installation. The Delphi AS10311 does not include mounting hardware, so reuse or source any required fasteners separately. Confirm the vehicle application by year, make, and model before ordering, especially on Volkswagen Beetle, Volkswagen Jetta, and Audi TT RS Quattro platforms.

Quality Assurance

Delphi backs this sensor with OE development and product validation methods, and each unit is tested and calibrated to OE standards for consistent performance.
