Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure the engine is completely cool to prevent burns. Locate the old sensor—typically found near the top of the cylinder head or timing cover—and disconnect the electrical harness before unscrewing the mounting bolt. When installing the Febi 196122, ensure the O-ring or seal is properly seated to prevent oil leaks. Use a torque wrench to tighten the bolt according to your vehicle's service manual specifications. Compatibility is non-negotiable; verify that your vehicle's make, model, and engine code match the specific application list for part 196122. Keep the sensor surface clean of debris or metallic particles during handling to avoid signal interference.
