Audi Fuel Tank Sending Unit - Genuine Audi 4H0919673P

Product Information

A fuel tank sending unit is a component located inside the fuel tank that measures the amount of fuel remaining and sends this information to the fuel gauge on the dashboard. The sending unit consists of a float, a metal rod, and a variable resistor. As the fuel level changes, the float moves up or down, causing the resistance to vary, which changes the signal sent to the gauge, indicating the fuel level.

• Inaccurate Fuel Gauge Readings: A failing sending unit often causes the fuel gauge to show incorrect fuel levels, such as always reading full, empty, or fluctuating unpredictably
• Stuck Fuel Gauge: If the float or sensor mechanism gets stuck, the fuel gauge may remain in one position, regardless of the actual fuel level
• Fuel Gauge Reads Empty with Fuel in Tank: A sending unit failure may cause the gauge to read empty, even though there is fuel remaining, leading to unnecessary refueling or inconvenience

About Genuine Audi

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your Audi are not necessarily manufactured by Audi. No cause for concern, as Audi designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for Audi for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine Audi parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of an Audi logo.
