Walker Products 250-23048 oxygen sensor for the 1985-1989 Volkswagen Jetta 4-cylinder 1.8L, the 1990-1992 Jetta 4-cylinder 2.0L and other vehicles measures the oxygen in the exhaust gas to show how efficiently the engine burns fuel. This upstream sensor is a narrow-band, 3-W direct-fit unit.

  • Made for its specific application and fitment position, with the diagnostic feedback the ECU needs
  • Coating protects the electrode surfaces from contamination and erosion by combustion residue and particulates in the exhaust gases
  • Measures oxygen levels to fine-tune the air-fuel mixture, which helps fuel economy
  • Electrodes made of a gas-permeable platinum layer
  • Monitors exhaust gases to help reduce pollutants

Quick facts

  • Part: Walker Products 250-23048 oxygen sensor
  • Fits: the 1985-1989 Volkswagen Jetta 4-cylinder 1.8L, the 1990-1992 Jetta 4-cylinder 2.0L and other vehicles
  • Position: Upstream
  • Condition: New

A failing sensor can show up as rough running, higher fuel consumption, more exhaust emissions or a lit malfunction indicator light. Before you replace it, rule out physical damage to the sensor's wiring harness and connector, since those signs can have other causes.

Fits

It is listed for a wide range of Volkswagen, Audi, Jaguar, Saab and Alfa Romeo models, including the 1990 Volkswagen Passat 4-cylinder 2.0L, and as a VW Golf oxygen sensor for the 1985-1989 Golf 4-cylinder 1.8L and the 1990-1992 Golf 4-cylinder 2.0L. This listing is one sensor; the 1990-1992 Jetta 4-cylinder 2.0L takes one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the right oxygen sensor for a 1990-1992 VW Jetta 4-cylinder 2.0L?

Yes. Walker Products 250-23048 is an upstream oxygen sensor listed for the 1990-1992 Volkswagen Jetta 4-cylinder 2.0L. For a different car, look it up on the Buyer's Guide tab.

Will this oxygen sensor fit a 1990 Volkswagen Passat 4-cylinder 2.0L?

Yes. Walker Products 250-23048 is listed for the 1990 Volkswagen Passat 4-cylinder 2.0L, and that car takes one sensor.

Is this Walker Products oxygen sensor upstream or downstream?

It is an upstream sensor. Walker Products 250-23048 is a narrow-band, 3-W direct-fit unit.

Can a failed narrow-band sensor raise fuel consumption?

Yes, it can. The sensor measures oxygen in the exhaust to fine-tune the air-fuel mixture, and a failed one might also bring rough running, more emissions or a lit warning light.

What does the coating on this oxygen sensor do?

The coating keeps combustion residue and particulates in the exhaust gases from contaminating or eroding the electrode surfaces. Those electrodes are made of a gas-permeable platinum layer.
