Detailed Description

Delphi SS11473 is engineered for vehicles that rely on precise camshaft position feedback for engine management. Delphi validates its sensors to OE standards and calibrates them for accurate readings, helping maintain consistent signal quality for the engine control system. This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC984 for the same application.

Common search applications include Audi A3 camshaft position sensor replacement, Volkswagen GTI camshaft position sensor, and Audi Q7 engine camshaft position sensor. It also serves Audi A4, A6, S3, and Volkswagen Golf R fitments where the original sensor matches this connector and terminal configuration. The Delphi SS11473 part number is also used by buyers searching for an OE-style camshaft sensor replacement for Audi and Volkswagen turbo and performance applications.

What It Helps Address

• Camshaft position signal faults
• Check engine light conditions related to cam sensor input
• Hard starting caused by incorrect camshaft timing feedback
• Rough idle or drivability issues tied to sensor signal loss
• Intermittent engine performance problems from a failing camshaft sensor

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and vehicle fitment before installation. This sensor uses a 3-pin male terminal layout with an oval connector and does not include a wiring harness or mounting bracket. Confirm the original part number and application match before replacing the sensor on Audi A3, Audi Q7, Volkswagen Golf, or other listed vehicles.

Quality Assurance

Delphi tests and calibrates its sensors to OE standards using development and validation methods focused on accurate readings and reduced comeback risk. The SS11473 is backed by Delphi’s sensor engineering process for consistent replacement performance.
