BOSCH NARROWBAND SENSORS

Just on the off-chance any of you are looking to purchase a narrowband sensor......AMAZON are selling the decent quality bosch sensors for £22.75......That's half the price of the next cheapest (I can find)...just ordered two (as I'm stuffing in a V8) :-)

I bought fake Delphi suspension parts a couple of years back --- visually looked very good with all the stamps and detailed s but they only lasted a few months. Gendan.co.uk will sell you a 4 wire universal Zirconia sensor for £35 --- probably branded Fuel Parts Just Lambda charge about the same for a Walker (US brand) sensor.

Must confess, I was advised by the ECU supplier to get a decent quality Lambda sensor, and in their opinion the BOSCH was one they have used to good effect...in the same line they advised on purchasing 'cheap' copies as they have seen them consistently fail and not give correct readings.

Not saying the Delphi one is a copy of course, could be absolutely fine.

You can't be sure of anything's origins these days.

There's been warnings in the engineering industry about 'SKF' bearings. Boxes same as genuines, printing, everything. Only way to tell the difference is to dismantle and do a metallurgy check.

Sometimes I get to wondering where the originals come from, and that the chinese makers are selling the seconds out the back door. I know that's what's happening with air valves.

Cheers,
Nev.

With OEM installation always replace like with like NGK/NTK sensor with NGK/NTK and Bosch with Bosch as it can cause major issues.
