Philadelphia Car Meets
Hey Chu, I just had to pick one up this week. You can get the Bosch universal for $60 at Autozone or Advanced Auto. I'm sure Pep Boys is around the same price. Works exactly like the OEM but you have to splice it into the stock O2 wiring harness . It's not hard at all and you don't need any special tools except for a wire stripper. The part # is 15730
Yeah, it works just fine. They come with a splice box. Basically you strip about 3/8 of insulation from the wires, push them into the ends of a splicer and seal them up in a little black box. It took me less than a half hour and cost $200 less than the OEM. I logged all day yesterday and did a solid 75 miles of driving and all the readings are right with the OEM sensor. For the first time in the months I've been trying to zero out my injectors, the fuel trims finally pulled back inline and I'm not getting a no reading code from the O2. It's a Bosch too so it's a high quality sensor.

So, when are we having another cruise? I'm pretty sure there's a meet (of all car types) at the IMAX parking lot in KofP tomorrow night if anybody's interested in going. They've been pretty cool about people meeting up there, as long as nobody gets too rowdy.
Edited my post since John pointed out that I have a slow reading code, but not the dead sensor one. I'm 99% sure thats tuning related since it only pops up at cruise speed. Either way the O2 sensor itself is not the issue and it's a good one.
Marc, disregard my suggestion for the helicopter museum. Apparently they're closed today. My son was really looking forward to it and he's pretty upset now. I feel bad because he's been really good too.
Anyone going to the Eagles game tomorrow? I'll be down there about 9am for tailgating. Anyone is welcome to join....we'll have the good stuff....no burgers and dogs...lol!
Let me know...

Ah, that's an awesome track. I got to go there for Saab's TurboX academy last year- nothing like 3 days on asphalt in Georgia in July. My shoes were stuck to the ground half the time
Do me a favor, snag me that TDI front clip- I need some front downforce.

Yeah but according to Accuweather it won't be raining all day, should be just overcast most of the time but roads will be wet
.
KOP IMAX is minutes from me, it would nice to meet up in that spot. Champs and Bahama Breeze have decent bars. But it may rain a bit in the evening. What would be even better is to take it to the KOP Mall Court parking lot middle level near Bloomingdales to get shelter and lighting plus a lot of space
. There is hardly anyone parking in that area especially on the back end of the parking lot toward the far wall. But then you have only California Pizza Kitchen's
and Morton's Steak House bars available, there used to be more places there to get a drink near Cheesecake Factory but they were switched over to retail space.
Let me know if anyone goes, would be nice to hang out and see some folks over a beer. PM or reply.

we met there before. mall security is annoying. last time we were all meeting up there to go somewhere they called the police. nothing happened just a cop sat there watching us. we're obviously car enthusiasts. no drug dealers/users. and what are we going to do? race in the parking garage?
