I need Help !!
This is crazy I cant believe an o2 sensor for this car is 400 plus dollars !!
I have researched this and find that Bosch list one #13246 that has a 5 wire on it and also has NTK stamped on it
possibly L1H1 ??? it has some kind of resistor on it on the Plug even though it plugs into factory plug , Makes check engine light come on and when check code no code is issued, put old one it and cleared ECU and it runs fine. But this thing hase 142 K on it ! would like to put new one on without spending 400 bucks.
Also found That NTK makes the L1H1 and sells it to bosch so why could I not wire the old sensor plug to the new L1h1 ? you know solder it and do it right. to avoid that resistor \.

Or does anyone know where I can buy an NTk L1H1 or L2H2 5 wire oxygen sensor cheaper then 200-400 Bucks ? I cant see for the life of me why this sensor is SOOOOO high !!!!! only the vx seems to need this expensive Sensor

thanks for any info anyone can share on this

Replacement oxygen sensors

This is just Advance Auto Parts. I dunno if you have one out there but apparently there are cheaer replacements than what you have been quoted. I know the Bosch is a 5 wire, but you may have to check to make sure on the others. Beck/Arnley looks like a pretty inexpensive one but check to see if they have a 5 wire.
