This speed sensor is an electronic component that measures the rotational speed of the engine or transmission output shaft, providing critical data to the engine control unit (ECU) for performance management. It is manufactured to Volvo's stringent quality requirements, ensuring accurate readings unlike a faulty sensor that can cause erratic performance. Symptoms of a failing speed sensor include intermittent engine stalling, rough idling, inaccurate speedometer readings, and the illumination of the check engine light.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Inspect mating surfaces for wear before fitting. Use torque specs from service manual. Replace gaskets and seals as a set — reusing compressed gaskets causes oil leaks. Clean all oil passages with compressed air.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
An initial indication of a failing speed sensor can be intermittent engine performance issues, such as hesitation or a brief loss of power. This may progress to the engine stalling unexpectedly, particularly when decelerating or at idle, and the 'check engine' light illuminating. If left unaddressed, it can lead to drivability problems and potentially prevent the engine from starting.
Ensure the sensor mounting surface is clean and free of metal shavings or debris that could interfere with its magnetic pickup. When tightening the sensor, do not overtighten, as this can damage the sensor housing or threads.
When replacing a speed sensor, it is advisable to inspect the wiring harness and connectors for any signs of damage or corrosion.
