The G247 –Rail Fuel Pressure (High-side) Sensor.
We have had several inquires about many Audi/Volkswagen BPY 2.0L vehicles having 'Lean running' issues and 'Lean fault codes'.
So I would like to take the time to help shed some light on one of the possible causes and some
things to look at when attempting to diagnose these HPF systems.
- First step is to check your MVB Group [032], if you see a lean condition on both fields (1) and (2), then consider
the fact that you may have the wrong G247-Rail Fuel Pressure Sensor installed.

- If this is a replacement engine, check the G247 sensor!!! You may have the wrong G247-Rail Fuel Pressure Sensor installed.
This can happen even with a new engine as the new engine could be shipped with the last sensor in
production for that engine code.. Both VW and Audi had documents about this.
In this example: The NAR Passat (3C)…
NAR Passat(3C) w/BPY engines - - up to >>> 3C_6_300 000
Original G247 Sensor 06D 906 051 A (drops in 2010) (This sensor is Black in color)
Above supersedes to 06H 906 051 A (drops in 2013) (This sensor is Black in color, may have a Blue ring)
Above supersedes to 06J 906 051 C (This sensor is Black in color)
or
NAR Passat(3C) w/BPY engines - - from 3C_7_000 001 >>>
Original G247 Sensor 06J 906 051 B (drops in 2010) (This sensor is Black in color)
Above supersedes to 06J 906 051 D (This sensor is Orange in color)
Note: The above part numbers are not interchangeable with replacements,
they are intended for forward or linear supersessions only!
IMPORTANT! - The above is information is deemed reliable but is NOT 100% Guaranteed.
You MUST consult with your local parts department and provide them with the VIN of the vehicle in question.
Also note we have been made aware that some aftermarket parts suppliers have been selling the
OEM (Real VW/Audi parts) G247 Sensors but they have not cataloged the above part numbers correctly.
- So it is possible you will receive the incorrect part and experience 'Lean' faults. Size of the thrust sensor does not matter in this case.
Hope this helps and double check your parts!
