Global Parts 1812248 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor

Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor for Audi and Volkswagen

Global Parts 1812248 is an exhaust gas temperature (EGT) sensor built for direct replacement service on select Audi and Volkswagen diesel applications. It sends accurate temperature data to the ECM, helping the engine management system maintain proper control of exhaust, fuel, timing, and cooling functions.

Compatible with 2015-2016 Audi A3, before particulate filter, and 2015 Volkswagen Golf and Golf SportWagen, before filter, this sensor is a fitment-specific replacement for common OE-style service needs. The Global Parts 1812248 part number is also referenced in cross-application listings for related OE replacement searches.

Detailed Description

Global Parts 1812248 is an EGT sensor used to monitor exhaust temperature and relay that data to the engine control module. The sensor supports precise engine management by helping the ECM respond to changing exhaust conditions, which can influence fuel delivery, timing strategy, and cooling control. Its blade terminals, 2-wire layout, and oval female connector are specified for OE-style replacement service. This part cross-references Standard Ignition ETS140 and Walker Products 273-10381 for the same application. Search terms such as Audi A3 exhaust gas temperature sensor before particulate filter and Volkswagen Golf exhaust temperature sensor before filter align with this application.

What It Helps Address

• Fault codes related to exhaust gas temperature sensing
• Incorrect ECM temperature input from a failing sensor
• Driveability issues tied to exhaust management data
• Emission control system monitoring concerns
• Service replacement for damaged or worn sensor connectors

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector shape, terminal count, and wire configuration before installation. Confirm the sensor location matches the listed application: before the particulate filter on Audi A3 and before the filter on Volkswagen Golf and Golf SportWagen. Compare the removed part to Global Parts 1812248 and check OE reference numbers during service to confirm the correct exhaust gas temperature sensor.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts engine management sensors are engineered to provide accurate ECM input and are direct replacement sensors that meet OE specifications. The design focus is on proper fit, electrical connection, and sensor performance for emission control service.
