Low-cost hot-film air-mass sensors from the Bosch Exchange rangeFactory reconditioned parts in OEM quality

· The Bosch Exchange range now includes 33 types for Volkswagen, Audi,
Skoda, Seat, Opel and Nissan

Low-cost hot-film air-mass sensors (HFM) from
the factory reconditioned parts range ''Bosch
Exchange'' are now also available for cars of the
brands Opel and Nissan. Previously, the range
only included cars of the brands Volkswagen,
Audi, Skoda and Seat. Bosch Exchange parts are made
with the same high quality standards that apply to new parts for original
equipment. Used parts are completely dismantled during the overhaul, are
cleaned, tested and defective components are replaced. Bosch offers the
same warranty for factory reconditioned parts as for new parts. The
Exchange hot-film air-mass sensors are available through wholesale.

Hot-film air-mass sensors have been installed in many passenger cars for
some years now. They measure the intake air for an optimal adjustment of
the fuel amount to be injected. The exchange hot-film air-mass sensors
provide an economic repair in line with the current car value of older
vehicles, since their price is significantly lower than that of new
parts. By extending the range to now 33 different hot-film air-mass
sensors for passenger cars with gasoline and diesel engines, the makes
Opel and Nissan as well as those of the Volkswagen Group are covered.
This includes all engine variants equipped originally with the
corresponding Bosch systems.

According to the rules of the exchange program, Bosch takes back
defective hot-film air-mass sensors and reimburses the deposit.
Conditions are that the old part meets the requirements for return - for
example, cylinder housing, mesh and plug-in connection must not be
damaged - and the workshop sends it back in the original package.
