VW Fuel Level Sensor - Genuine VW 5Q0919673AK

Product Information

A fuel level sensor is a component located inside the fuel tank that measures the amount of fuel and sends this information to the vehicle’s fuel gauge or electronic control unit. It typically uses a float connected to a variable resistor to detect fuel levels. By providing accurate readings, the sensor helps drivers monitor fuel usage, prevent unexpected empty tanks, and supports fuel management systems.

• Inaccurate or fluctuating fuel gauge readings, regardless of actual fuel level.
• Fuel gauge stuck on full or empty, caused by sensor malfunction.
• Check Engine Light illumination, often due to a fault detected in the fuel sending circuit.

About Genuine VW Audi

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VAG to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VAG” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VAG, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VAG Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VAG are not necessarily manufactured by VAG. No cause for concern, as VAG designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VAG 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 VAG parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VAG logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming direct from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
