I need a new lambda sensor.
in work we have problems when fitting aftermarket sensors ( usually on vauxhalls)
however, from autovaux they do an OE delco sensor for £13..
is this likely to be any good? (1/4 the price of one from vaux)

most common one is NGK, but i know what you mean i fitted an NGK and 4 months down the line it brought up a fault with it, stuck it on the emissions tester at work and the emissions was through the roof, swapped it with a standard original vauxhall one, and it went back to the pass readings. For £13 its worth the risk, it may pay off and be better than paying £40 for one.

Yeah, i always use Ngk (Ntk) or bosch in customers cars.... but not sure i want to risk it in mine lol.
the worst ones we get are fuelparts... seem to last a week then pack up.
anyone know who manufacture the original vaux ones?

My OE lambda sensor has Bosch written on it.
