Product Details

VEMO V20-72-1369 is an engine crankshaft position sensor used to monitor crankshaft position and rotational speed for the engine control system. This sensor is listed for 2001-2002 BMW Z3, 2001-2006 BMW M3, and 2006-2008 BMW Z4, with application notes for the BMW M3 excluding Sequential M transmission Drivelogic. The part number V20-72-1369 and OE cross-reference 12147830789 help confirm the correct replacement for the listed BMW models.

The VEMO brand line focuses on OE-style replacement components for European vehicles, and this sensor follows that approach with application-specific fitment and listed physical dimensions. For buyers searching for a BMW crankshaft position sensor, BMW M3 crankshaft sensor, or BMW Z4 crankshaft position sensor, this part provides a direct reference point for matching the vehicle application.

This part cross-references Standard Ignition PC576 for the same application.

Common Issues This Sensor Can Address

  • Crankshaft position signal loss
  • Engine stalling or intermittent no-start conditions
  • Rough running caused by incorrect engine speed input
  • Check engine light related to crankshaft position sensor faults
  • Hard starting when the engine control module cannot read crankshaft position correctly

Installation Notes

Verify the OE number 12147830789 and confirm the vehicle year, model, and transmission notes before installation. Compare the connector routing, sensor length, and mounting location to the removed part to ensure the VEMO V20-72-1369 matches the original configuration. For BMW M3 applications, confirm the vehicle is not equipped with Sequential M transmission Drivelogic.
