Hella 014494561 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor - Rear

HELLA EGT Sensor for Volkswagen Touareg

HELA 014494561 is an Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor built for real-time exhaust temperature monitoring in diesel emissions systems. It is a direct-fit, bolted sensor with a 2-pole connector and a 580 mm cable, made for rear placement on the exhaust after the diesel particulate filter.

Compatible with 2006-2008 Volkswagen Touareg, rear, this sensor supports accurate temperature feedback for the turbocharger, DPF, and emissions control system. HELLA 014494561 is a practical OE-style replacement for drivers servicing the Volkswagen Touareg exhaust temperature circuit.

Key Features

• Part number: 014494561
• Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor for diesel emissions monitoring
• Rear location, after diesel particulate filter
• Bolted mounting type for secure installation
• 2 poles for the specified electrical connection
• 580 mm cable length
• Fits 2006-2008 Volkswagen Touareg, rear

Product Details

HELLA’s HELLA product line focuses on OE-level electrical and emissions components, and this EGT sensor follows that approach with application-specific fitment and temperature sensing accuracy. In the Volkswagen Touareg, the sensor measures exhaust heat downstream of the DPF so the engine management system can respond to elevated temperatures and maintain emissions-system control. If you are replacing a failed rear exhaust temperature sensor on a 2006-2008 Volkswagen Touareg, part number 014494561 is the direct reference to verify.

This part cross-references Four Seasons 76409 for the same application.

What This Sensor Helps Address

• Faulty exhaust gas temperature readings
• Diesel particulate filter temperature monitoring issues
• Turbo and emissions-system heat protection concerns
• Check engine lights related to EGT sensor failure
• Rear exhaust sensor replacement on the Volkswagen Touareg

Installation Notes

Confirm rear, after-DPF placement before ordering. This sensor uses a bolted mounting type, a 2-pole connection, and a 580 mm lead length, so match the connector and routing to the original unit on the vehicle. Verify the application against the existing sensor location on the 2006-2008 Volkswagen Touareg before installation.

Quality Assurance

HELLA manufactures OE-level replacement electrical and emissions components, and this sensor is built to meet the fit and function expected for the specified application. Part number 014494561 should be matched to the vehicle’s rear exhaust temperature sensor position for correct service replacement.
