Default O2 sensors info

well guys just replaced my upstream o2 sensor on driver side with a new Bosch sensor that was highly reccommened on the forum. Beware of the fact that the write up on here says plug and play but it may not be the case for your car as it wasn't for mine. I had to re-use my old plug and splice into the new wiring for the new sensor to plug it in. May happen to you or may not...but at any rate the car runs like new now so I'm happy about that part! Purring gently!

Good job & good result!

Normally the Denso sensors are used so there's the chance that with different makers you may have to manually splice wires in-I did this once on an old BMW.

Anyway, good to hear your cat is back to rude health again

well a Denso is what was on the car when I pulled it out I could read it. The only reason I went with BOSCH was because someone on the forum wrote up that it was plug and play and simple...next time I will replace with DENSO for sure. I hate that splice crap....
