One of my O2 sensors went out and I see Advanced Auto carries NGK, Denso and Bosch. All sensors are listed at the same price. Has anyone had bad luck with a certain brand or should all of these be about the same?

Ive used Bosch before and never had a problem with them. I think your best bet though is to get ACDelco.

Second the AC Delco choice, which was probably the OEM part. The OEM part is required to be warrantied for 100,000 miles, therefore manufacturing specifications are tighter.

Get AC Delco OEM ones. I tried Bosch and they set off lean codes.

OE parts are all but mandatory when it comes to sensors and electrical bits in my opinion. Too many bad experiences with 3rd party stuff.

Yeah not worried about increasing horsepower, just want sensors that will work correctly and last for a while. The computer actually said that Denso was the OEM sensor. I didn't have the chance today to get under the truck to see if i could see a brand written on them.

I would stick with AC Delco or Denso. I have heard about and experienced bad results with Bosch ignition parts and sensors on GM vehicles.

The OEM sensors on my Yukon were Denso when I pulled off the pre-cat units last year. I replaced them with Bosch exact fit which I bought on Amazon for half the cost of the Advance Auto price. No codes or issues. Bosch is an OEM sensor supplier for nearly every European manufacturer.

      OEM Trailer Hitch Receiver - Impact tightened by shop

      Great info to have, I printed out what you had in your document as well as Newdudes post as I could see this mistake with the hardware happening very often if not realizing what type of special bolts are being used and just guess on bolt size for torque or the good enough "easy" method as per whack in the used bolts with an impact and send it !.

      Auto start stop disable

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed the Auto stop eliminator on my 21 Sierra SLT shortly after I got it. They have a detailed video instruction on how, took me about 20-30 minutes to do. I was apprehensive too to start tearing apart a new truck but it was pretty easy install. Like you mentioned get some trim tools. I went to Harbor freight and picked up a set. If you can find some install videos/instructions to give you and idea for a plan of attack you should be fine.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      If all oil manufacturers had to meet a higher standard for not just the initial filtering of the oil but that they had to improve on their formulation so that the oil cleaned the engine such as the Valvoline R&P or the new Mobil product ( assuming it works similar of course ), and the oil was changed on an interval based on good UOA data, there shouldn't be any gremlins running around like miniture rats on top of your heads to be washed down into the oil pan below 😁

      OCI, not when but why?

      A while back on another thread there were comments and thoughts on air filters and I know that can tend to be a bit of a hot topic because of outfits that have a vested interest in selling aftermarket air boxes fitted with the gauze type of oiled elements touting the lower air restriction. However and unfortunately I don't know where I have seen the test results in the past about the amount of dirt through a test procedure that these style of filters do pass more dirt through than a properly designed ( not some cheap Chinese knock off ) paper/synesthetic media filter can do. Lake Speed had a conversation on that topic with one of the employees at Donaldson and there seemed to be a consensus of these oiled filters falling short in the absolute percentage of dirt holdback.    Which all ties back into how good the air filter is on the engine at keeping dirt out as that is going to reflect as a contaminant introduced into the oil as well as cylinder wear even if some of that dirt does find its way out of the exhaust rather then the crank case. Put another way that one can throw the kitchen sink at filtering the oil and using a bypass system which I fully expect will do nothing but good for the oils contamination but if the air filter system isn't doing its job then its preventing the engine from reaching the best wear/lasting case scenario instead.    Now perhaps this topic is or isn't for this particular thread but Grumpy Bear or anyone else for that matter, do you have access to some scientific trust worthy testing on engine air filter types to get some proper comparison data to post up.
