FAQs
What does an exhaust temperature sensor do?
It measures the temperature of gases exiting the engine before they reach the turbocharger. This data is used by the engine control unit (ECU) for performance management and to prevent overheating of the turbocharger.
Which vehicles is the CI XEPS191 compatible with?
It is specifically designed for VW CRAFTER 30-35 Bus (2E_) 2.0 TDI models from 05/2011 to 05/2016 with engine code CKTB, and replaces OE part numbers 03L906088DC and 03L906088JL.
What is the thread size of this sensor?
The thread size is M14 x 1.5.
How long is the cable on this sensor?
The cable length is 460 mm.
What is the spanner size needed for installation?
A 17mm spanner is required.
Can I install this sensor myself?
Installation involves working in the exhaust system and connecting electrical components. While possible for those with mechanical experience, professional installation is recommended if you are unsure.
What are the OE numbers this sensor replaces?
It replaces OE part numbers 03L906088DC and 03L906088JL.
Troubleshooting
Check Engine Light (CEL) related to exhaust temperature
Verify sensor connection, ensure it's correctly threaded, and check for any physical damage. Confirm compatibility with your vehicle's OE part number and engine code. A CEL may also indicate other exhaust system issues or ECU faults.
Inaccurate temperature readings
Inspect the sensor for obstructions or contamination. Ensure the electrical connector is clean and making good contact. If the issue persists, the sensor may be faulty and require replacement.
Difficulty installing sensor
Ensure you are using the correct thread size (M14 x 1.5) and that the mounting port is clean. Do not overtighten the sensor, as this can damage the threads or the sensor itself. If resistance is met, double-check compatibility.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Ensures accurate exhaust temperature data for performance tuning.
- Helps prevent turbocharger damage from excessive heat.
- Direct replacement for specific OE part numbers, simplifying installation.
- Robust design for longevity in demanding exhaust conditions.
- Standard thread and connector types for broad compatibility within its designated applications.
Cons
- Limited vehicle application; not a universal sensor.
- Installation may require professional expertise due to its location in the exhaust system.
- Requires precise knowledge of OE part numbers for correct selection.
- Potential need for ECU recalibration after installation for optimal performance.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Verification: Before installation, confirm that your vehicle's Original Equipment (OE) part numbers match either `03L906088DC` or `03L906088JL`. Additionally, ensure your vehicle is a VW CRAFTER 30-35 Bus (2E_) 2.0 TDI manufactured between 05/2011 and 05/2016, and uses the CKTB engine code.
Installation: Installation typically requires access to the exhaust manifold before the turbocharger. The sensor screws into place using its M14 x 1.5 thread, requiring a 17mm spanner. The 2-pin, black D-shaped connector should be firmly attached to its corresponding harness.
Wiring: Connect the 460mm cable to the vehicle's wiring harness. Proper routing of the cable is important to avoid heat damage or physical stress.
Care: This sensor is designed for high-temperature environments and generally requires no routine maintenance. However, during exhaust system inspections, check the sensor's electrical connector for corrosion or damage. Ensure the sensor housing remains free from significant physical impact.
