Fitment Level: OE Match / Platform Verified

Compatible with BMW / MINI diesel emission aftertreatment systems using OEM references:

• 8596295-02
• 8596295-03 (related revision in same family)
• 0281007235
• 0281007236
• Bosch PM sensor family 0 281 007 235 / 0 281 007 236

Typical applications include:

• BMW 1 Series F40 116d / 118d / 120d diesel
• BMW 2 Series F44 Gran Coupé diesel
• BMW X1 F48 diesel (LCI models)
• BMW X2 F39 diesel
• MINI F55 / F56 / F54 / F60 diesel
• Engines: BMW B37 / B47 diesel families (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:

• evaluate DPF efficiency in real time
• control regeneration timing more precisely than pressure-only systems
• detect soot breakthrough or sensor electrode degradation
• improve emissions compliance in Euro 6 B-series diesel engines

⚠️ 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 critical feedback component in BMW B37/B47 diesel emissions systems.

Fitment must always be confirmed strictly by OEM number (8596295-02 / 0281007235), as BMW/MINI compact diesel platforms share multiple revisions depending on production date and ECU software level.
