Bosch Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor P/N:0986259017
Bosch 0986259150 exhaust gas temperature (egt) sensor for the 2011-2012 Volkswagen Touareg V6 3.0L measures exhaust heat and sends the reading to the ECU. The ECU uses that data to time regeneration and SCR dosing and to help protect the turbo, catalytic converter and DPF from thermal overload.
A warning light or a regeneration cycle that does not finish can mean the exhaust temperature reading is off. These signs alone do not prove the sensor is the problem, because wiring damage at the connector is another common cause.
This sensor fits the 2011-2012 Volkswagen Touareg V6 3.0L, which takes one. The listing is a single sensor.
