04L906261G Volkswagen SENSOR

This little guy basically measures the amount of oxygen in your exhaust gases. It sends that information to your car’s computer, telling it how well the engine is burning fuel. It’s checking if there’s too much or too little oxygen after combustion. There are usually a few of these – one before the catalytic converter and one after, and sometimes more on newer vehicles. Think of it as a key component in the feedback loop for your engine’s fuel mixture. The computer uses the sensor's readings to adjust the amount of fuel being injected into the engine. It's constantly tweaking things to try and hit that sweet spot for efficient combustion. It doesn’t directly make anything happen, it just reports information, but that information is vital. If this sensor goes bad, your car's computer can’t accurately determine the air – fuel mixture. That leads to a whole bunch of problems. You'll likely see your gas mileage drop, because the engine is running richer or leaner than it should. It can also cause rough idling, hesitation during acceleration, and even damage to the catalytic converter—that’s a pricey repair. Sometimes it'll even trigger the check engine light. You’ll notice if it’s really gone bad, usually by a decrease in fuel economy and performance. You can find these pretty easily at places like Fixparts Online, and swapping it out is often a fairly straightforward job, depending on the location of the sensor. Eco-friendly and safe: Sensor (MPN 04L906261G) comes with a 12-month warranty!
