Bosch O2 Sensor

[ricecube77]

Are these a good/better replacement for the O.E. junk O2 sensor in a P10?

Just purchached the Bosch # 13039 sensor ... got the order number from a nice guuy on Se-R list ... just wondering if Bosch is better/worse than O.E. nissan equipment

hey ricecube77 how much you paid for the 02 sensor?

[ricecube77]

70 bucks flat and some change.. like 5 cents or so.

Got it off Carparts.com

supposedly i'll get it in 3-4 days... once i stick it into my car i'll post back and give everyone details

Much cheaper than Courtesy Nissan's 95 bucks and my houston Infiniti dealer's 148...

Hey Phil, any change or increase in gas mileage?

Will see when i get it Howard. 99% of the people say its my dead O2 sensor, and without a Consult or anything i can't really tell. The other 1% (West Houston Infiniti) says its a dirty TB, clogged Injectors, etc etc etcc....... they gave me the run around.

I'll drop by an email and post a reply..... hopefully Bosch won't fail me.. or Carparts.com )

SCREW YOU WEST HOUSTON INFINITI.

Thx

I know it's a little too late Phil, but Infiniti of Scottsdale sells O2 sensors for $110. Don't know about S&H.

Bosch O2 sensor was 70 flat and some change from carparts.com

[GtRider]

so did u see any increase in gas milage with the Bosch 02 sensor?

[ricecube77]

Well..

For the week after i put in the NEW o2 sensor.. i got approximately 1 MPG more.. HAHA

I went to George's geekout with the problem... several guys thouoght it was either the O2 sensor or a clogged EGR Tube. The O2 sensor was new.. so i pointed to the EGR Tube. But.. after using the gunk engine cleaner and changing oil + filter... on the way home i noticed my milage shot up. Maybg changing the oil (HOT HOT... Dammit George ) along with the o2 sensor helped.

P.S. Oil = good.

Do SR engine's eat oil or something?>

[ricecube77]

No. I guess the old oil i had was junky crap. I even had the copper sealer ring on my bolt FUSED flat. Don't ask...

From now on im doing stuff myself. Screw Firestone oil changes
