Signs of a faulty part

If you notice any of the following, the part likely needs replacement:

  • Check Engine light with an exhaust temperature fault code

Installation information

Screws into the exhaust system with a sealing washer — use anti-seize compound on the threads to prevent seizing for future replacement.

Frequently asked questions

If the ECU can’t verify exhaust temperature is within safe limits (due to a faulty sensor or genuinely excessive heat), it may reduce power as a protective measure to avoid damaging the turbo, catalytic converter, or DPF.
