A shop told me that my O2 sensor was burned out.
Which I belive them cause my engine light is on and
they ran a diagnosis through the computer . Does anyone have one they could spare or where I can buy a aftermarket one. I really
dont want to spend 100 bucks on a stock one just to burn it up again. Any Ideas???

O2 sensors are a wear items on cars. How many miles do you have? If you have anywhere from 60k-80k then its about time to replace it. I would buy an OEM unit rather than trying to rig a aftermarket part in place. The odds of burning out another one are slim.

Check out www.parts4vws.com. They have pretty good prices and can get OEM stuff.

I highly recommend doing online business with the link he posted. You can also call up 1552 Design or Cars and Concepts to see what they can do for you.
