Exhaust Gas Temperature (Egt) Sensor for 2014-2016 Audi A6 Quattro & More - Bosch 0986259158

Bosch 0986259158 exhaust gas temperature (egt) sensor for the 2014-2016 Audi A6 Quattro V6 3.0L and other vehicles measures exhaust temperature ahead of the particulate filter and reports it to the ECU. The ECU uses that data to help time regeneration events and urea dosing for the SCR and DPF systems.

• Sends precise temperature data to the ECU so SCR and DPF systems run within their optimal range
• Monitors DOC/DPF inlet and outlet temperatures to confirm the regeneration window and complete soot burn-off
• Tracks SCR inlet temperature so dosing happens in the proper thermal window, helping prevent urea-derived deposits
• Stainless steel housing, ceramic insulators and glass-to-metal hermetic seals for exhaust streams above 1,600°F
• Integrated with ECU software via CAN-bus to supply real-time data for onboard diagnostics
• Standardized mounting threads and a connector made for quick installation
