Thumbs up O2 sensor... Denso, Bosch, ?

Okay after fixing that EGR tube leak I have an O2 sensor SES for the Bank 1, Sensor 1 still... I replaced these quite some time ago so I'm wondering if they're time is just up again and the EGR problem killed them? Seems odd tho' that the EGR is on the passanger side and the SES is for Bank 1 which is Driver's side I recall.

That or I have an injector hanging/not opening. I have just over 200k mi on this car currently. Could be time to have the injectors cleaned well or sent out to have them done.



Thoughts/Opinions?

OEM is the best choice.

See my tutorials if you want to save a few bucks, the universal O2 sensors work just fine in my LS: http://www.lexls.com/tutorials/EFI/

Otherwise, buy OEM sensors, but it will be a LOT more $$$.

Buy them for less than the dealer here
O2 sensors.com
or
spark plugs.com

Bosch has always thrown bad signals every time I've used them.
I usually take them out and replace w/ OEM.

I don't know about the rest
