im in need of a new o2 sensor and was wondering if an o2 sensor from Autozone would be good? I'm in desperate need of a new o2 sensor and don't want to cash out the $100 for a new o2 from the dealership. So I wanted to know if an o2 from Autozone would be good...

thanks in advance

$100, are you serious? go to a parts store and get one for like $30...they all do the same thing.

most of our sponcers have cheap. 100 bucks is way over priced.

usually any 1 wire universal is fine. I think the last Bosch 1 wire universal I bought was under $20.

it really depends how long and how well you want it to work. If you want longevity and reliability, then nothing beats OEM, if you want something that will suffice then yeah an autozone O2 will work fine

Actually, make sure you get the Bosch OEM-style oxygen sensor. The aftermarket style sensor will not work as well becuase of the inferior shape or the head and fins...
