Default lambda sensor part number

I am trying to get a new lambda sensor but halfords and my local auto shop don't have the right type for my car, and subaru can't find the item unless I give them the code (or my chassis number but it's an import).

So can someone please let me know what thye part number is for a 1994 WRX wagon lambda sensor. I guess it would be the same as all impreza turbos from 1994-1996.

Cheers

if know one knows perhaps someone with a UK turbo MY93-MY96 can PM me their chassis number so I can use it for ordering the part, please.

I finally found a company selling lambda sensors for the 94-96 WRX (Graham Goode) and it is 249 quid!!!!!

Do I really need to spend this much. I could probably get a second hand part from Grade-a or API but then I might get the same problem not long down the line. Any ideas??

Thats around the price i paid for a one for my 93 WRX import (3 wire black,red and white)
Dig deep and buy new. It will be worth the cost

Not sure if its the same and by the price I suspect not but I bought a lamda sensor from my local factors for an MY00 Impreza for £45.

cats-direct.com will sensors but whether it fits your car I don't know, sorry.

249 quid what a rip off !! How do they get away with it?? We supply generic lambdas for £88.00 plus VAT, WITH I might add, the wiring diagram for an Impreza.

No, it won't do, the MY 2000 one is different.

Call me if I can help

I ended up forking out for the £250 OE sensor, we'd ( me and my garage ) had tried various generic lambda's but none would generate the proper voltages. It's odd, some car's/sensors seem to work fine, and yet some won't. Without logging the voltages to confirm, I would always be cautious of the generic solutions.

Ironically, the first OE sensor we got from Japan also produced some crazy voltages : so even the proper sensors can play up.

This thread may help - http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=312913

I got my replacement Bosch Lambda from "jgevers" (see above thread) and he was incredibly helpful/knowledgeable.
