    I have a PLX wideband that uses a Bosch sensor. I was looking for the cheapest place to find one and noticed they come on the Volkswagon Jettas from 99-05. After looking on Rockauto, I noticed that Denso makes a Wideband sensor that has the same connector as the Bosch.

    Anyone ever tried one of these with their PLX or Innovate wideband controllers or will it not work?

    Edit- I noticed that ACDelco makes one also. 2133894

    Denso-

    Part# 2345117


    OE Style
    • Double Protection Cover— Maintains proper unit temperature for quicker response times and protects the ceramic element against silicone and lead poisoning.
    • Aluminum-Oxide Trap Layer— Keeps silicone and lead outside the ceramic element through DENSO's exclusive design, preventing damage to the platinum electrode.
    • Stainless Steel Housing— Resists corrosion and contamination with a rugged, watertight body.
    • Porous PTFE Filter— Allows atmospheric oxygen to enter the sensor without permitting water or engine contaminants to seep into the casing.

    Wouldn't it read the same considering it is made for a stock car? The Bosch sensor, ACdelco and Denso are all on Rockauto as the same sensor for the Volkswagon Jetta.

    Just might have to try it.

    I would look into the specific output curve before buying one.
