Default Oxygen Sensors

Has anyone had any experience using aftermarket oxygen sensors? Just wondering because of the cost difference.

What sort of prices have you found and where have you been looking? How many miles on your truck?
Most aftermarket work fine, don't buy the O2's that you have to rewire and add your plug on to.
Check prices at Atlantic British, Rover Connection or DAP.

Thanks Mike. The ones I've found had only one wire and no connector. They were being sold as "universal". My Disco has over 200k on it and I'm looking for a more affordable solution than the $129 a piece sensors from Atlantic British.

4X $95 at Rover Connection.
Go down and talk with your local auto parts store, see if they can cross match yours to some of the other vehicles out there. I have heard that other people have shopped around and found them in th $60 range.
At 200,000 miles you are loosing money on every tank of gas do to the poor running O2's in your truck.

Might sound stupid, but have you tried the dealer. I was quoted $235.00 a pieceat NAPA. Called the dealer and ended up paying $85.00 for the OEM ones. And that's canadian money. You might be looking at $75.00 american.

Thanks again Mike, I'll do some investigation. The 02's have taken a back seat to all of the other repairs that have come up recently. Darover, I'll give a dealer a call. Who knows, maybe I'll luck out like you did.
