I have a 95 240sx se auto,

Front o2 sensor needs replacement. ECU turns engine light on after 3 weeks following a reset.

No drivability issues at all, get 35 mpg.

O2 sensor light came on after changing to a KN air filter.

Should I even bother changing the O2 sensor.

Can I put in aftermarket and save $30 as opposed to OEM.

Thanks for your help.

yes you can. I put a bosch o2 sensor from autozone and it was just as good as the factory one. Be careful though not all oxygen sensors are alike. Some blow very quickly. Bosch worked for me though.

Autozone wants like 70 bucks for an 02 sensor (Bosch).

Yup 35 mpg;

Canadian gallon ( Imperial ) is 4.54 liters, while US Gal is 3.8 liters ; as far as I know a mile in Canada is a mile in the US.
