Febi 08466 Engine Oil Pressure Sensor

Engine Oil Pressure Sensor for Audi and Volkswagen

The Febi 08466 engine oil pressure sensor is a direct-fit style replacement for vehicles that use a single-connection, M10 x 1 threaded pressure switch with a 0.15 to 0.35 bar switching range. It is built for accurate oil pressure warning signal control in applications such as Audi A4, Audi A6, and Volkswagen Golf models.

Key Features

• Engine oil pressure sensor / pressure switch for oil warning systems
• Switching pressure range: 0.15 bar to 0.35 bar
• Outside thread: M10 x 1 with 13 mm thread length
• Single electrical connection for straightforward replacement
• 24 mm wrench size for service access
• Yellow galvanized surface with blue color coding
• Febi part number 08466 for catalog and fitment lookup

Detailed Description

Febi 08466 is an engine oil pressure sensor used to monitor oil pressure and trigger the vehicle’s warning circuit when pressure falls outside the specified range. The sensor features a 46 mm overall length, 2.54 mm inner diameter, and a yellow galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. Its single-connection design and M10 x 1 thread make it a practical replacement for many older Audi and Volkswagen platforms.

This part cross-references OE-style numbers such as 021 919 081 C and 028 919 081 D for the same application. It is listed for a wide range of Audi A4, Audi A6, Audi 80, Audi 100, and Volkswagen Golf applications, making Febi 08466 a relevant choice when servicing oil pressure warning circuits on these vehicles.
