wideband sensor replacements
 
Where do you guys buy your replacement sensors from? Didn't some VW's come with the 5 wire LSU WBO2 sensors?

I know where to order online, but I'm trying to see if I could get them at a parts store. Anyone know the part number? I need one for my PLX m300.

I can't find any 98 golfs with 1.8t. All have 2.0's according to vatozones website.

Ok, well found Bosch #17014. $79.99 at autozone.

I'm looking to see if I can get anything cheaper.

Yeah, but I need it now. I was supposed to tune a car today but couldn't because my heater circuit is fucked. :-\ I must have dropped it or hit it against something because now it serves as a rattle. :l

I know I can get it online for cheap.

NAPA will have them in stock most likely. I've gotten them from there when I needed one ASAP.

Got the 17014 from one of the bigger auto parts suppliers here, Triangle Auto Supply. $83 and some change. That's the cheapest I could find it.

Broke it in by tuning a 15psi vitara with a turbo comparable to an hx40. :y

17014 is the same as the VW part. They both have the same Bosch number on them, the 17014 doesn't come with the VW number on it.

$52 locally through advanced, last I checked.

Lucky bastard. Everywhere I called it was $79.99.

How often do you guys replace them? Mine was well over due. It probably had a hard 12 months of actual usage.

3-5 times a year. Exposure to racegas kills them quick.
