which o2 sensor should i get?

[wardog]

Im in the process of ordering a universal 3 wire o2 sensor i have 3 choices there is an NTK, BORG WARNER and a BECK/ANLEY they come out for early VW
1. Has anybody had any problems with any of these?
2. Which one do you guy think i should get , i found them for about the same price 24 shipped. I also found the adaptor for the o2 sensor for about 14 shipped too..

Let me know what u guys think?

I've always used Bosch/Denso o2 sensors and never had any problems.

Denso OEM

Denso only unless you like buying them over and over again.

www.densoproducts.com

Search for a 1990 one. $38.

^ And 100.00 for a plug-n-play one. :nono:

/\ Or $35 and 5 minutes worth of soldering new plugs from Auto Zone? It's still flanged for our car, unless I'm reading it wrong? :dunno:

You're not reading wrong. The bosch/cheapo/enter brand here doesn't last nearly as long as OEM denso.

You missed my point. The plug-n-play bosch is almost $70.00 more just because of that, it's plug-n-play.

WTF $100????? Umm i paid $45 for my denso plug and play O2 sensor.

^That's what the link provided in this thread said, just going by what they have...

So the 35 dllr denso come with the toyota flange for the dp right? people that has bought the denso im i right? :1zhelp:

 

[bountykilla0118]

Last time i checked all the 02 sensors came with a flange..... i think you are asking if it comes with the stock plug to plug into the stock harness. Do you not have any auto places around you like NAPA or Parts Plus if so call around for a OEM replacement with three wires for you car.
