Are Bosch o2 sensors good?

Greetings,

I just bought a Bosch o2 sensor for my car which is bad on gas now (running real rich) and I just want to know if they are any good. I heard from some it’s not all that and I just want to know if anyone had a good or bad experience with them.

Thanks in advance…

was wondering about the same thing.

its bad on gas now? why did you switch it in the first place was it bad on gas or running rich before and its worse or no different? ive never ran one in my teg which badly needs to be changed but anyway ive seen cars run fine on bosch o2 sensors before. its possible its wrong o2 sensor sometimes people at parts stores dont check to make sure the right box was in the right place so id check the numbers on it

I have one on mine. Works fine. Not the best, don’t last as long. Denso is much much better.

is it the plug-in version or the one you have to cut and crimp? the bosch cut and crimp type didnt work for me. it gave me bad gas mileage and also a bogging problem at around 3k rpm. so i changed it to the bosch plug-in type and cleared it all up. hope that helps.

then it was definitely your wiring since the sensors are the same thing.

yup. could be his wiring too.

Bosch O2 sensors don’t last long and fuel metering is bad. I only use Denso o2 sensors with OE connector on my 2 CB7 and the’ve been very good. I’ll be putting it on my DA when I replace my headers…

I have to give props to Denso, they make a better product. I got mine for $25.
I’ve used Bosch a few times. They seem to be less responsive and burn out quicker. Its what I throw on GMs that I don’t care about.

How about you start a new thread for that instead of listing it within a help thread about o2 sensors?
