Oxygen Sensor for 1996-1999 Volkswagen Jetta & More - Bosch 13740

Bosch 13740 oxygen sensor for the 1996-1999 Volkswagen Jetta V6 2.8L and other vehicles measures the oxygen in the exhaust and reports it to the ECU. Those air-fuel-ratio readings help the ECU keep combustion stable and help reduce emissions.

• Narrow-band heated design with precise air-fuel-ratio measurements
• Integrated heater element brings the sensor to operating temperature in under 10 seconds
• Built to withstand exhaust streams up to 1,880°F, with a TSP coating that resists vibration, corrosion and contamination
• Ceramic elements and optimized heater control for consistent output under thermal and vibration loads

A worn oxygen sensor can show up as a check engine light, poorer fuel economy or a rough idle. Those signs alone do not prove the sensor is the problem, since an exhaust leak can also skew the readings.
