Fitment Level: OE Match / Platform Verified

Compatible with BMW diesel emission aftertreatment systems using OEM references:

• 13628517184
• 8595482-04 (market/internal marking variant used in some aftermarket catalogs)
• 0281006379
• Bosch PM sensor family 0 281 006 379

Typical applications include BMW diesel platforms such as:

• BMW 1 Series F20 / F21 116d / 118d / 120d diesel
• BMW 3 Series F30 / F31 / F34 316d / 318d / 320d diesel
• BMW X1 E84 / early F48 diesel variants
• BMW X3 F25 18d / 20d diesel
• Engines: N47 diesel family (Euro 5 / early Euro 6 systems)

This sensor is used in diesel particulate matter monitoring systems, where it measures soot concentration downstream of the diesel particulate filter (DPF). The ECU uses this signal to:

• monitor DPF efficiency in real time
• control regeneration cycles more accurately than pressure-only systems
• detect soot breakthrough or filter degradation
• trigger fault codes when electrode signal drift occurs (common failure mode in this generation)

⚠️ Important:
This is a DPF particulate matter (PM) sensor, not a NOx or temperature sensor.
It directly measures soot concentration after the DPF and is a key diagnostic component in BMW N47 diesel emissions systems.

Fitment must always be confirmed strictly by OEM number (13628517184 / 0281006379), as this early-generation PM sensor is frequently superseded by newer BMW designs depending on ECU update level.
