Preference for O2 Sensor Brand?
Does anyone have suggestions for the best brand of o2 sensor? NGK or Denso? What are your experiences with each?

I have a Bosch and it has worked for the past err... 80 miles? I haven't been driving my 4R for the past few days. I would've gone with an OEM one, but I didn't have input on the buy, my dad did. Why does everyone seem to avoid Bosch like a plague?

Soak the studs & nuts in PB Blaster, wait an hour, give it a shot. Repeate as required.
BE CAREFUL - you can EASILY snap those studs off. If you do, then it's a trip to an exhaust shop to get it dealt with.

Has anyone tried gettin' their 02 sensor replaced for free from dealer? It says it in the owners manual that u can get it replaced for free, parts and labor...i think it's on page 156 in owners manual..

Basically there's a mileage limit on that concept of "free". Call the service dept first before you go in.
edit: searching on "o2 free" turns up:

There are other discussions as well... Searching's cool. Searching's neat. Searching's the place to be.
