Delphi TS30258 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor - After Particulate Filter

Overview of Delphi TS30258 Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor

The Delphi TS30258 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor is engineered for precise temperature monitoring in Audi vehicles, including the A6 Quattro, A7 Quattro, A8 Quattro, and Q5 models. Designed to withstand high temperatures up to 850°C, this sensor ensures reliable performance in demanding emission control systems.

• Maximum temperature rating of 850°C for durability in extreme conditions
• 8.27-inch wiring harness length for flexible installation
• Blade-type terminals with two male terminals for secure electrical connection
• Oval-shaped female connector for compatibility and ease of connection
• Threaded nut mounting type for stable and secure sensor placement
• Includes exhaust gas temperature sensor and instruction sheet for installation guidance
• Positioned after the particulate filter for accurate exhaust monitoring

Detailed Product Description

The Delphi TS30258 sensor is specifically designed to monitor exhaust gas temperatures in Audi models such as the A6 Quattro, A7 Quattro, A8 Quattro, and Q5. Its robust construction supports a maximum temperature of 850 degrees Celsius, making it suitable for high-heat environments typically found after the particulate filter. The sensor features a threaded nut mounting type, ensuring a secure fit in the exhaust system. The 8.27-inch wiring harness length provides sufficient reach for installation without excess slack. The blade terminal type with two male terminals and an oval-shaped female connector ensures a reliable electrical connection, minimizing the risk of signal loss or failure.

Common Applications and Issues Addressed
