Detailed Description

This Walker 273-10094 EGT sensor is specified for exhaust-side temperature sensing before the turbocharger on select Volkswagen Beetle, Jetta, Golf, and Audi A3 diesel applications. If you are replacing a failing exhaust gas temperature sensor on a 2013-2014 Volkswagen Beetle, 2009-2014 Volkswagen Jetta, 2010-2011 Volkswagen Golf, or 2010 Audi A3, this part provides the correct connector style, thread size, and harness configuration for the listed applications. This part cross-references Continental 49289 for the same application.

Common Issues It May Address

• Fault codes related to exhaust gas temperature sensor performance
• Incorrect exhaust temperature readings before the turbocharger
• Driveability concerns tied to sensor signal loss
• Emission control system faults on listed Volkswagen and Audi diesel models
• Replacement of a damaged or heat-affected exhaust sensor connector or harness

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the connector shape, terminal style, thread diameter, and harness length against the original sensor before installation. Because this sensor mounts in the exhaust, allow the system to cool fully before service and inspect the surrounding wiring for heat damage, corrosion, or contamination. Confirm the application notes for the before-turbocharger location on the specific vehicle.
