Audi VW Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor - Rein ELT0067

Product Information

An Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) Sensor is a sensor in a vehicle’s exhaust system that measures the temperature of exhaust gases as they exit the engine. This information is essential for engine control systems, as it helps optimize fuel-air mixtures, prevent overheating, and ensure the catalytic converter and other emissions components operate within safe temperature ranges. EGT sensors are commonly found in diesel engines and high-performance vehicles, where exhaust temperature management is critical.

• Poor Fuel Economy: A faulty EGT sensor can give inaccurate temperature readings, leading the engine control module (ECM) to adjust the fuel-air mixture improperly. This can result in inefficient combustion, leading to higher fuel consumption and reduced fuel economy
• Check Engine Light: A failing EGT sensor often triggers the Check Engine light on the dashboard, as the ECM detects abnormal temperature readings or inconsistencies. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) specific to the EGT sensor may also be logged in the vehicle’s system
• Engine Performance Issues: If the ECM receives incorrect temperature data from the EGT sensor, it may reduce engine power to prevent potential overheating, especially during heavy acceleration or high-load situations. This can cause reduced power, sluggish acceleration, or even limp mode activation

About Rein

Founded in 2007, CRP Automotive introduced the Rein Automotive line of OE-quality replacement parts to the aftermarket. And in just two short years, Rein Automotive has become very popular among both warehouse distributors and professional repair technicians. Rein is the German word for “pure”, and has come to be synonymous with quality in the automotive aftermarket. A true dealer alternative.

The Rein brand includes a growing number of “better than OE” parts for selected applications. These parts address known weaknesses and premature failures of factory parts. Many of these replacement and service solutions have been developed with the help of our Innovation Council, a hand-picked group of experienced professional repair technicians and shop owners throughout North America.

All Rein Automotive OE-quality parts are backed by the CRP Automotive standard, and are backed with a ISO 9001:2015 quality management system certification. Each year, CRP Automotive ships thousands of Rein Automotive brand products. And with widespread NAFTA market distribution through strategically placed warehouses in Cranbury, New Jersey and Puebla, Mexico - OE-quality products like Rein Automotive are delivered to customers both faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.

In 2017 Rein partnered with FCP Euro in competing a W204 C300 AER car for the 2017 season. The partnership focused FCP Euro to dive deep into the Rein catalog offering, and hundreds of new products were added and integrated into our catalog. Hundreds of new packages were created not only using the full part pine up of Rein products, but also the entire family of CRP products like Pentosin.

Rein is also an innovative brand, winning numerous trade awards — including multiple new product innovation awards at the annual AAPEX trade show.
