3 wire. Geniune part is the way to go, your bosch universal item has lasted less than a year if it's gone already.

I fitted the last universal one, not that long ago! Genuine one is cheaper in the long term. If you have a bung at the top of the downpipe, you can alter the wiring very slightly so the socket for the sensor will reach, and fit the cheaper genuine one in the downpipe.

I dont think its gone yet but you said it was dodgy and ive got the engine out at the moment and wanted to replace it amongst other things.

Do you know how much the sensor is that fits in the downpipe ?
