    Make sure you get the right sensor. I have no experience with the aftermarket ones, but I do know Audi parts department had to use my VIN to get me the right ones. There are different frequencies that are used.

    You are right. The one I got was a Beru. Here is a pict of the one that fit my 2009.

    Do you know what valvestem size fits these sensors?? Beru makes 4 different valve stem sizes. You need both the sensor and valvestem for the system to work.
    PS thanks for the pic...
