Hey guys,
Been suggested that I put in a new oxygen sensor in my AUII SR. From what I've read here it should be about $80 I just rang a dealer and was quoted $394.15 just for the part!!!!!!!! Is this correct or am I supposed to get an aftermarket one. Any info/brand/part no's would be really great. Thanks guys |

Do you know what the part no is or what I should be looking for. I would hate to buy the wrong thing.

How long should these last before you replace them ?
Are they easy to get on and off ?

Just get an aftermarket one, there's a few different brands, I paid $95 for a Bisch one here in Brisbane (not off ebay), I'm not sure where you're located though. Piece of cake to change, you just need a decent size spanner (can't remember exactly, maybe a 22?).

I got mine from Lee's Spare Parts & Performance, every part I've been after so far he's been the cheapest by far, good bloke too, very helpful. He's down in Underwood, check out www.performanceparts.com.au, the address and phone number and everything is there. Cheers, Matt.
