FAQs
Is this sensor compatible with all Audi vehicles?
No, it is designed for specific Audi models that use OEM references 4M0927803B, 4M0927803C, or 4M0927803D.
Does this sensor work on the rear axle?
No, the XABS1287 is specifically engineered for front axle installation.
Do I need to replace both front sensors at once?
While not strictly required, it is often recommended to replace them in pairs to ensure even performance and prevent imminent failure of the older unit.
What does the 'D-shape' connector mean?
The connector housing is shaped like a capital 'D' to ensure it can only be plugged in one orientation, preventing incorrect wiring.
Can I drive with a faulty ABS sensor?
While the car will still brake, the ABS, traction control, and stability systems will be disabled, which significantly increases risk in emergency situations.
Troubleshooting
ABS warning light remains on after installation
Clear the fault codes using an OBD-II diagnostic tool, as the system may store the error until manually reset.
Intermittent signal failure
Check the connector for debris or corrosion; ensure the 2-pin plug is fully seated and clicked into place.
Sensor not fitting into the axle bore
Remove rust or oxidation build-up from the mounting hole using a wire brush before attempting re-insertion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the XABS1287, first elevate the vehicle and remove the wheel to access the front axle sensor port. Disconnect the old sensor by pressing the release tab on the D-shape connector. Clean the mounting area thoroughly of rust and debris to ensure the new sensor sits flush at the 47mm fitting depth. Insert the new sensor and secure it according to the vehicle's torque specifications for the mounting bolt.
Compatibility Note: This sensor is compatible with various Audi models replacing OEM parts 4M0927803B, 4M0927803C, and 4M0927803D. Always cross-reference your VIN with the part number before installation. For care, avoid using high-pressure sprayers directly on the sensor connector during vehicle washing to maintain the seal's integrity.
