Vemo V10-72-0045 Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor

Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor for Audi Diesel Applications

The Vemo V10-72-0045 is an exhaust gas temperature (EGT) sensor built for diesel emission control systems that monitor exhaust heat before the soot particulate filter. It uses a D-shape connector, 2 poles, and an M14 x 1.5 thread for OE-style replacement on select Audi models.

Use this VEMO sensor when servicing vehicles that call for OE number 8K0 906 088. It is specified for Audi A6 Quattro, A7 Quattro, A8 Quattro, and Q5 applications where accurate exhaust temperature feedback is required ahead of the diesel particulate filter.

Detailed Description

VEMO V10-72-0045 is an OE-style exhaust gas temperature sensor for diesel exhaust aftertreatment systems. Its straight design, 125 mm body length, and 605 mm overall length support direct replacement where the original sensor is mounted before the diesel particulate filter. The sensor is engineered around the OE reference 8K0 906 088 and is listed for Audi A6 Quattro, Audi A7 Quattro, Audi A8 Quattro, and Audi Q5 diesel applications.

VEMO’s VEMO line focuses on replacement electrical and emission-control components built to match original equipment specifications. For buyers searching by part number, V10-72-0045 and V10-72-0045 are the identifiers to verify against the vehicle’s OE listing before ordering.

This part cross-references OE number 8K0 906 088 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Fault codes related to exhaust gas temperature sensor performance
• Incorrect exhaust temperature readings before the diesel particulate filter
• Emission system warning lights tied to aftertreatment monitoring
• Diesel particulate filter regeneration issues caused by inaccurate temperature input
• Replacement needs for a damaged or aging OE sensor

Installation Notes and Tips

• Confirm the OE number 8K0 906 088 and connector shape before installation.
• Verify the sensor mounts before the soot particulate filter on the vehicle.
• Use the specified tightening torque of 45 Nm during installation.
• Check cable routing and connector seating to avoid heat-related damage.
• Clear diagnostic trouble codes and confirm sensor readings after installation.
