Yes, I think so too, I found some Bosch equivalents online with a specification that implied a resistive protection.

Personally, I would only buy genuine ones. They can't be that expensive.

True, it's just that I've found the local VAG parts people not particularly helpful when just supplied with a part number; they insist on a VIN and identifying the required part in their online database, which for a nearly 20-year-old D2 they really struggle with and lose interest.
It took me ages to just get a standard green Coolant Temperature Sensor out of them, especially as the retaining clip and O-ring had to be identified and purchased separately!
