Mercedes Sprinter EGR Temperature Sensor – Genuine Mercedes-Benz | VS30 2.0L Diesel | #0009055502 (2019+)

A failed EGR temperature sensor on a VS30 Sprinter blinds the ECU to what's happening inside the exhaust gas recirculation circuit — triggering fault codes, pushing the van into limp mode, and causing emissions system behavior the ECU can no longer monitor or correct. This is the Genuine Mercedes-Benz OEM EGR temperature sensor for VS30 Sprinters equipped with the 2.0L diesel engine, a direct replacement that restores accurate exhaust gas temperature feedback and proper EGR system control.

What This Part Does

The EGR temperature sensor monitors the temperature of exhaust gases as they flow through the EGR circuit back into the intake manifold. This data feeds directly to the ECU, which uses it to regulate EGR valve opening, adjust injection timing, and manage combustion temperatures to minimize NOx emissions while maintaining efficiency. On the OM654's advanced emissions architecture — which includes a high-pressure EGR circuit, low-pressure EGR circuit, DPF, and SCR catalyst — accurate temperature data at the EGR stage is critical for keeping the entire aftertreatment system functioning within its designed operating window. When the sensor drifts out of calibration, returns an implausible signal, or fails outright, the ECU logs faults and may restrict engine output to protect the emissions system.

Common Symptoms of a Failing EGR Temperature Sensor

• Check engine light with fault codes related to EGR temperature or EGR system performance
• Engine entering limp mode or reduced power mode, particularly under load
• Rough idle or inconsistent throttle response tied to EGR system faults
• Increased black smoke under acceleration from improper EGR regulation
• EGR-related fault codes that return after clearing without other identified causes

When to Replace

Replace when the sensor is confirmed faulty by scan tool with active or stored EGR temperature fault codes, and other EGR system components (valve, cooler, lines) have been ruled out as the source. Also replace as part of an EGR system overhaul — a worn sensor on a freshly cleaned or replaced EGR valve will continue to generate faults and prevent accurate system calibration.

VS30 2.0L Specific — VIN Verification Required

This EGR temperature sensor is for VS30 Sprinters equipped with the 2.0L diesel engine. It is not compatible with VS30 models equipped with the 3.0L OM642 or NCV3 Sprinters equipped with the 2.1L OM651. Always verify your engine code and VIN before ordering.
