Installation Notes and Tips
Verify connector count, harness length, and OE part number before installation. This sensor uses 2 connectors, a 1310 mm harness, and 12V electric operation, so matching the original configuration is important for proper fitment. Confirm the vehicle application by year and model before ordering, especially on 2008-2016 Audi Q7 and 2009-2010 Volkswagen Touareg vehicles.
For best results, inspect the surrounding exhaust wiring and mounting points during replacement. If the original sensor has been exposed to high heat for an extended period, check the connector terminals and harness routing for damage before installing the new unit.
