Delphi TS30184 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor - Before Particulate Filter

Overview of Delphi TS30184 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor

The Delphi TS30184 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor is designed for precise temperature monitoring in the exhaust system of select Audi and Volkswagen models. Engineered to withstand temperatures up to 850°C, this sensor ensures reliable performance in demanding conditions.

• Maximum temperature rating of 850°C for high-heat environments
• 15.35-inch wiring harness length for flexible installation
• Threaded nut mounting type for secure attachment
• Blade terminal type with 2 terminals (male) and oval female connector
• Positioned before the particulate filter for accurate exhaust gas temperature readings

Technical Details and Compatibility

The TS30184 sensor features a durable design with a threaded nut mounting system, allowing for stable installation in the exhaust stream before the particulate filter. Its 15.35-inch wiring harness provides sufficient length for routing within the engine bay, while the blade terminals and oval female connector ensure a secure electrical connection. This sensor is specifically compatible with Audi Q7 and Volkswagen Touareg models, making it a suitable replacement part for emission control systems in these vehicles.

Function and Applications

This exhaust gas temperature sensor is critical for monitoring the temperature of exhaust gases before they reach the particulate filter. Accurate temperature data helps the vehicle's engine control unit (ECU) optimize combustion and emissions control. The TS30184 sensor can help address issues such as:

• Inaccurate exhaust temperature readings leading to inefficient emissions control
• Faulty sensor signals causing engine warning lights
• Potential damage to the particulate filter due to improper temperature monitoring
• Reduced fuel efficiency related to emission system malfunctions

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the Delphi TS30184 sensor requires removal of the old sensor positioned before the particulate filter. Ensure the threaded nut mounting is securely tightened to prevent exhaust leaks. Verify the blade terminals and oval female connector are properly connected to avoid electrical faults. It is recommended to follow the included instruction sheet for detailed installation guidance and torque specifications.

Quality Assurance and Warranty

Delphi manufactures the TS30184 sensor to meet OEM standards for durability and performance. The sensor is built to withstand exhaust temperatures up to 850°C, ensuring long-term reliability. While specific warranty details may vary, Delphi typically offers coverage against manufacturing defects. Refer to the product documentation for exact warranty terms.
