bosch o2 sensors?

[mngoat]

Was just wondering, I have a AEM gauge that needs a new sensors, looks like you can replace with a few models from napa. Read in the AEM manual that states:

"Each AEM UEGO sensor is individually calibrated and a resistor integral at the connector body is laser trimmed with this value. This process replaces the traditional “free air” calibration procedure when changing sensors and implements a sensor specific calibration for unparalleled accuracy."


Based on this info should a person replace with one directly from AEM? or are the ones from auto store good enough. Talk with Justin Sibler briefly and he said I could replace with auto one but thought I'd double check based on the new info i found in the manual. Thanks.

AEM is a very bad quality,

get one from other manufacturer you will be happy

I also had very bad luck with egt' s myself on my 09 bd pg turbo. Not sure which brand they were but they came with my bd kit.
One stopped working and both came out at several times.
When they came out it caused boost leaks...

Go to an auto parts store and get an O2 sensor for a 2002 jet 1.8 turbo upstream of cat.

Both oriellys and autozone are Bosch sensors. 17014 is the part number.

Thanks...I picked up a 17014 from oriellys. Looks like the connector is wrong. Looks like a 17018 or 17205 have the proper connector. Thanks again.

I just picked one up today, too. I'll have to check the connector now. I picked up the part number off a turbo car website.....

Sorry about the misinformation. It looks like it is the 17205 or 17018 like mentioned above.

The first sensor is $112.99 at Orielly's and Autozone....$66.98 in the above 1st link.
The second sensor is $66.99 at Orielly's and Autozone....$62.98 in the above 2nd link.

Both sensors appear to cross reference to AEM part number 30-2001.

Looks like the 17205 matches my original sensor, the 17018 has the same connector but the end of the sensor is slightly different. Don't know if this matters or not. I think I'll just order from link above. Worth saving the 45 bucks. Thanks for the links.
