Incorrect oxygen/lambda sensor?

kkelly77 · 2015-03-09 11:15:44

I'm trying to source a replacement oxygen sensor for a 2007 Kia Sportage diesel. The original only has 2 wires, yet everywhere that sells sensors for this car are all 4 wire. Does this mean my car has the wrong sensor fitted? It's located in the Cat/DPF unit. Thanks.

It appears the 2 wire connection is original and not a bodge job to make it fit. A few photos:

So apparently this is the DPF pressure sensor and I'm an idiot
