Been running this sensor forever ...Denso and AutoZone site and store both say "This item discontinued" ? What's plan B ?

 
Check your local NAPA and have them check nation wide. The MN warehouse had a shit load about 2 months ago. I bought 14 of them for around $19.00 each.

Once those are gone I'm thinking heated 02 I guess?

Thanks ..i did see one on ebay... what is "NM" warehouse?
 
Sorry, Minnesota Napa Warehouse. I'm in Iowa and my local branch checked and at the time they had about 150 of them. This was around July/August .
 
Got 2 from Rock Auto, but I think they are out now. They will take your email and alert you if/when they get more in.

Nappa say's ,Denso shows it discontinued as does AutoZone,,both showing zero in stock across the country... so now what do we do?
 
Just ordered (2) of them from Napa and they showed up on Friday. Shipped from Napa warehouse in Florida
 
Sorry if i gave bad info...i just called my local Nappa in Newark,DE...guy said i can order on line,as they don't stock them,which i did. Guess my call last week was answered by a rookie?

Glad to hear you found some, make sure to get a few extras.

Getting the right person behind the counter of any parts store seems to be a challenge. Our local NAPA has the best track record out of any of the major chain parts stores.
 
Sorry guys, I might've bought the last 1 Napa had, I tried to get 2 but they only said 1 was available, $24. Luckily these last a long time so I don't see needing one for many years.
 
Just went on NAPA Prolink. It showed 3 at Jacksonville FL. Distribution center and 1 at Des Moines DC. $18.68
 
im not 100% on this but the guy at AutoZone did say that they are discontinued? and with finding very few available around the country ..not sure what to think.
 
There's plenty of cheap Chinese copies on Ebay, $8 each. o_O ;)
Who knows they may even work!? :p
 
Napa called Sunday morning, they're out of the Denso I ordered online, Bosch and NGK were options to swap.

I had asked my local Nappa guy if any part # supersede the Denso..he said no? loosing faith in this store : / I would be ok with an NGK..if they supplied a part # let us know please.
 
They've been disco'd for a while now. I knew something was up about a year ago when Nick, AZGN, bought my last two off my eBay store.
I have a bunch of the single wire weatherpack plugs for the orange ECM wires. I tried to find out what sender the 234-1001 uses and put the correctly GM plug on it a while back.
but then I saw a squirrel run past something shiny.

 

NTK Oxygen Sensor 21002​


Bosch Exact Fit Oxygen Sensor 12014​


These might be our sensors moving forwards.
 
Also the buick also calls for AFS 22 Gnx & AFS 20 for regular turbo buick both getting scarce ....however Rockauto has the bosch , ntk but also an in between that looks like it should work AFS 21.....
