★ Top Answer
In a 2006 VW Passat, the oxygen sensors are located near the catalytic converter on the passenger side of the engine compartment. You'll have to get underneath the car to spot them, as they are screwed into the exhaust with wires connected to them. These sensors analyze the exhaust fumes to determine the air-fuel mixture, providing vital data to the ECU on fuel and air requirements. This optimization not only enhances engine performance but also boosts fuel efficiency. If you observe any issues with your engine's performance, it could indicate a faulty oxygen sensor or loose wiring.
