Hella 014494531 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor

HELLA Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor

HELLA 014494531 is an Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor built for real-time exhaust temperature monitoring. It uses a 2-pole design with a 1000 mm cable and bolted mounting for OE-style service on select Audi, Volkswagen, and related applications.

For drivers searching for an Audi A7 Quattro EGT sensor, Audi Q5 exhaust gas temperature sensor, or Volkswagen Touareg temperature sensor replacement, this HELLA unit is built to match the original sensor layout and signal requirements.

Key Features

• Part number: 014494531
• Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor for emission control systems
• 2 poles for direct electrical connection
• 1000 mm cable length for factory-style routing
• Bolted mounting type
• OE-level fit and sensor precision from HELLA

Product Details

HELLA’s HELLA product line focuses on OE-style electrical and emissions components built for accurate system communication. This EGT sensor monitors exhaust heat in real time so the engine control system can respond to rising temperatures before they affect the turbocharger, diesel particulate filter, or emissions hardware. The HELLA 014494531 is a practical replacement for vehicles that need a bolted, 2-pole exhaust temperature sensor with a 1000 mm lead.

This part cross-references Continental 49263 for the same application.

• Emissions system warning lights tied to sensor failure

Installation Notes

Confirm the mounting style, pole count, and cable length before installation. This sensor uses a bolted mount and 2-pin connection, so the replacement should match the original connector and routing path. On listed Audi Q7 applications, verify the noted location before turbocharger and the production-date notes before ordering.
