They have got 35% off at GFS this weekend (again) and wanted to know if the cheaper ones are any good as they are half the price. http://www.gsfcarparts.com/parts/fuel-emissions/mixture-formation/lambda-sensor

Go with a genuine Bosch one if you can get one ________________________________________ Cherry Red Rallye .... On going OEM spec resto China Blue GTi6 .... Weekend toy Black 208 GTi ....
