The part number V10-72-1013 is also referenced by interchange listings including Bosch 0261210298 and Standard Ignition PC687.

Use this sensor when servicing a vehicle that requires the OE number 077905381G and the listed 3-pin connector configuration. The packaging uses iSP foil material, and the part dimensions are provided to help verify space and connector routing before installation.

What This Part Helps Address

• Crankshaft position sensor fault codes
• Intermittent no-start conditions related to crank signal loss
• Rough running caused by inaccurate engine speed input
• Stalling or hesitation tied to crankshaft signal interruption
• Check engine light concerns linked to crank sensor performance

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the OE number 077905381G, connector style, and lead length before installation. Compare the removed sensor to the Vemo V10-72-1013 to verify mounting and harness routing on the Audi Q7, Audi RS6, or Volkswagen Touareg application. Inspect the connector terminals and wiring path for damage before connecting the new sensor.

For best results, clear stored fault codes after installation and verify that the engine starts, idles, and accelerates normally. Always match the vehicle by year, make, model, and listed notes rather than by appearance alone.
