OBD gave P0135 trouble code (Oxygen Sensor heater circuit problem or such). Dealer quoted incredible price for sensor (recommended to replace both, there is pair of them for each side of engine). Online can find variety of sensors from Universal to Direct Fit, much cheaper. Question: are those sensors OK? way2old Veteran / Moderator Nov 29, 2007, 2:06 PM Post #2 of 4 (2310 views) Re: Oxygen Sensors: manufacturer versus universal Sign In I have had both good and bad experiences with aftermarket sensors. Guess it is a crap shoot. Usually if you can find a name brand, they last longer than the generic. So it is your call. Might last 10 years or 10 days. Good luck. Maybe some of the independant owners will help you more on this. They usually use more aftermarket than we do. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds BKL New User Nov 29, 2007, 4:11 PM Post #3 of 4 (2301 views) Re: Oxygen Sensors: manufacturer versus universal Sign In Thanks way2old! Anyone else had experience with aftermarket oxygen sensors? Appreciate! DanD Veteran / Moderator Nov 29, 2007, 4:20 PM Post #4 of 4 (2300 views) Re: Oxygen Sensors: manufacturer versus universal Sign In I agree; it is a crapshoot with after market components. This is my thinking on electronic after market items. If whomever reproduced/cloned this piece did so with a “first” design it should work? But if this component and the original manufacturer found a fault in it (first design) and replaced with a second, then you’re screwed. Nothing wrong with the after market’s clone but it just does not work because of an oops. After market isn’t going to recall their item and legally don’t have to unless it is a safety issue. Dan.
