I just put in the universal Bosch O2 sensor about 9 months ago and it works great! You just have to make sure you wire it correctly. I saved a ton of money on buying the universal one instead of the oem one.

$126?!?!?!?! That must be one HE!! of an 02 Sensor!!

I got mine for my 2nd gen Runner for about 80 bucks from the stealer.

Elton

I just bought a knock sensor off of ebay for my 3.0. I paid $15 for it, I hope it works cause its gonna be a pain in the buttocks to put in.

Elton

i found one at sparkplugs.com for $68.25 its a denso dreict fit for 89 22re will this work ? o and should i get a set NGK IX iridium $6.95 each

Sorry to deviate from the original thread but..........

Have you searched on this subject and seen the post about micro grounding the knock sensor?? I can't recall fully but the fix was to either micro ground the head or the sensors harness. Solved the knock sensor fault.
The reason I ask is I'm in the same boat on my Runner. I think I'm goina try the grounding mod before attempting the sensor replacement. I'll just have to refind that thread before doin' it though as it was a month or so ago that I read it and I'm not exactly sure what forum it was on.

dang! you guys are better pricehunters than me...i thought i was doing well with a new toyota oem o2 sensor from the dealer for $105!

Fink

Man...I guess the prices went up or something cause mine wasn't nearly as expensive as the ones you guys are finding, except the ones online, I'm talking from the dealer...whew!
