[S2_VR_]

oh ok, thanks buddy... is there more than 1 on a 5.0L??

[Vee-ard]

no, the V8 5.0L only has one as far as i know, the V6 has two though.

[S2_VR_]

cool, are they worth much?? in good nick.......how much would ya pay for a new one??

[VrWagz1]

i think they are around $60-$80 new. Second hand i would pay $10 posted to me if its known to be working.

Brand new straight from Holden spare parts: $89.

Aftermarket universal gay sensor: $70.

[Vee-ard]

I know which one I'd choose.

[delcowizzid]

i use trident ones all the time about 50-60 bucks they work fine

[Cobez]

I know which one I'd choose.

Knoath! The genuine Holden ones are AC DELCO sensors.

[maldotcom2]

Is there really much difference between generic and genuine O2 sensors?

[Cobez]

Probably not a heap, but i'd rather pay a little extra for a genuine one. For $19 extra, it's not that much. Plus most of the aftermarket ones you have to wire in and solder, the genuine ones have plugs. Unplug old, plug in new and done.

AC delco for me all the way, when it comes to important stuff you want the real deal, sensors, spark parts (dizzy cap/rotor/leads) etc. You can't go wrong with AC delco or Bosch. That's the only stuff I run

[Cobez]

Second that ^^^ My dizzy cap etc, O2 sensor, etc are all AC Delco. Straight from Holdens mouth. Plus warranty will be easier to claim if the part is faulty.

Aftermarket stuff might be a little harder.
