## Description

Bosch Original Equipment Crankshaft Position Sensors provide accurate detection of engine speed - engine speed is the main control variable for ignition timing. Bosch Original Equipment Crankshaft Position Sensors aren't just a quality replacement component, they're the same sensor your vehicle was equipped with when manufactured - minus the expense of brand name packaging. Robust design features precise digital measurement of rotational speeds, high resistance against external interference, and a wide temperature range that withstands extreme hot and cold operating conditions. Bosch Crankshaft Position Sensors deliver the precision operation and long service life your vehicle needs for superior performance, lowest emissions, and optimum fuel mileage.

Review: For my classic Porsche 928 - This will be the third of these sensors in the car. The original sensor and installation include a model-specific connector, and the need to pass that connector through a grommet in the tub. The grommet sits in an, um, interesting position that normally demands lowering the exhaust to access. Using this 15735 sensor allows me to pass another wire from inside the cabin, and use it to "snake" the cable from the sensor back inside, where it's very convenient to splice the new sensor cable to the original via a more common connector. It also saves some $$ along the way vs. buying the specific sensor from Porsche. I my 25-plus years with the car, these sensors have worked perfectly. The improvement in fuel economy alone pays for a new sensor in well under 50K miles. Doing the same math with the Porsche-supplied sensor more than doubles the payback period, effectively costing more than just the difference in sensor price. If you are comfortable managing the new connector install, there's a significant economic benefit in using this sensor. I've been religious in keeping the car to original spec all its life; I'm fairly sure no concours judge will ding me points for an extra connector in the sensor cable. Hasn't happened yet anyway. Buy this one and save money. Simple as that.
Review: Works 100% - BMW N52 - Bank 1 or Bank 2 before the catalytic converter - Replacing either of the "upstream" heated o2 sensors (= lambda sensors) looks to be and should be a pretty easy job on most N51 or N52-powered BMW cars. You should remove the plastic engine cover and the whole cabin air filter/cowl covering, but that's about all it takes to get access to the rear bank o2 sensor that sits just below a little metal shelf/cover of sorts. The wiring for both sensors wraps around back of the valve cover and joins two connectors on top of it. I spent way too much time trying to remove that little metal cover just above the bank 2 o2 sensor because of a tiny rusted bolt (E8 Torx) caused by 17+ years of heat and exposure. Eventually I just bent the cover upward enough to allow an offset-style o2 sensor socket to slip past it with the cable in it and I was able to unscrew the bad upstream o2 sensor easily. With the little cover out of the way, the whole job should take you less than an hour to replace one, or maybe even both of these sensors on the N52 engine. The new sensor has some appropriate anti-seize on its threads already. After you install it/them, reset your diagnostic codes and you're on your way - my last one lasted 150,000 miles.
