This part cross-references Mitsubishi MD091056 and Toyota 8342016020 for the same application.

VEMO is the brand line used for this replacement sensor family, and the catalog data shows broad coverage for vehicles including Mitsubishi Eclipse, Montero, and Galant; Toyota Tacoma and Tundra; and Mazda 626 and Miata. The part number V37-72-0002 is useful when verifying the correct sensor against OE listings and interchange references.

What It Helps Fix

• Incorrect coolant temperature readings
• Hard starting or rough cold operation caused by bad temperature input
