FAQs

Which Volvo models is this exhaust pressure sensor compatible with?

This sensor is compatible with Volvo S60, S80, S90, V40, V60, V70, V90, XC40, and the Polestar 1 (PHEV AWD Coupe) from 09/2019 to 12/2021 (engine codes ERAD2.2 L/R and B 4204 T22).

What OEM part numbers does this Bosch sensor replace?

It replaces OEM part numbers 31370160, 31697984, and 78HL132540043BBA.

Is this a new or used part?

This is a new part.

What is the main function of an exhaust pressure sensor?

It measures the pressure within the exhaust system and sends this data to the vehicle's Engine Control Unit (ECU), which uses it for optimizing engine performance, fuel efficiency, and emissions control.

Can I install this sensor myself?

While possible for experienced DIY mechanics, installation often requires specific tools and knowledge of exhaust systems. Professional installation is recommended for most users to ensure correct fitment and function.

What should I do if my check engine light comes on after installing the sensor?

First, ensure the electrical connector is securely attached. Then, use an OBD-II scanner to clear any diagnostic trouble codes. If the light persists, consult a mechanic to diagnose the issue further.

Troubleshooting

Check Engine Light remains on after installation

Ensure the electrical connector is fully seated and secure. Verify that all diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) have been cleared using an OBD-II scanner. The issue may lie with another component, or the sensor may be faulty (rare for a new part).

Vehicle running poorly or showing reduced power

Double-check the sensor's installation and electrical connection. Confirm the correct part number was installed for the specific vehicle model. Inspect the exhaust system for leaks near the sensor.

Sensor not recognized by ECU

Verify vehicle compatibility once more. Check the wiring harness for any damage. If the issue persists, the sensor may need to be returned for testing.

Installation:

Installation of an exhaust pressure sensor typically involves:

  1. Locating the existing sensor in the exhaust system.
  2. Disconnecting the electrical connector.
  3. Carefully unscrewing and removing the old sensor.
  4. Applying thread sealant (if recommended by vehicle manufacturer) to the new sensor.
  5. Installing the new Bosch sensor, ensuring it is securely threaded.
  6. Reconnecting the electrical connector.
  7. Clearing any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) with an OBD-II scanner.

Due to the location and nature of exhaust system components, professional installation by a qualified mechanic is often recommended.

Care:

As an electronic sensor, the exhaust pressure sensor requires no routine user maintenance. Its longevity depends on proper installation and the overall condition of the exhaust system and electrical connections. Avoid harsh cleaning agents near the sensor and ensure surrounding components are secure.
