MAP Sensor

The Bosch Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor, part number 0281002976, is an OE-quality replacement engineered to meet or exceed original equipment specifications for performance, driveability, economy, and emissions. Manufactured in Germany, this sensor features an extremely sturdy design with a special coating, providing resistance to harmful chemicals found within the intake manifold. Bosch consistently improves its MAP sensor designs by incorporating the latest chip technology to ensure reliable and accurate measurements. A Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor is a critical component of a vehicle's engine management system. It precisely measures the pressure within the intake manifold, transmitting this data to the Engine Control Unit (ECU). The ECU uses this information to calculate air density and determine the optimal air-fuel mixture, which is essential for maximizing engine performance, improving fuel efficiency, and controlling emissions. Symptoms of a failing MAP sensor can include a triggered Check Engine Light, reduced engine power, sluggish acceleration, rough idling, and difficulty starting. Specifically, it fits various models including the Audi TTS Quattro (2009-2015), Volkswagen Jetta TDI (2009-2014), Audi Q7 TDI (2013-2015), Porsche Cayenne Diesel (2013-2016), and Volkswagen Beetle (2013+). Please verify fitment for your specific year, make, model, and engine configuration before purchase.
