DENSO Aftermarket Sales has further extended its OE quality Lambda Sensors programme, with the addition of 13 new part numbers covering dozens of popular applications for Opel, Hyundai, Kia, Audi and Mitsubishi vehicles.

The range extension, which covers 43 OE part numbers, results in a European vehicle parc coverage of more than 68 percent.  The complete programme, now comprising 412 part numbers and 5,394 vehicle types, is listed on the TecDoc and MAM cataloguing systems.

DENSO’s Lambda Sensor range for the European aftermarket is based on the company’s great  experience as one of the world’s foremost manufacturers of original car parts; including Lambda Sensors, which are fitted as Original Equipment by leading marques including Toyota, Honda, Jaguar, Volvo, Mazda, Subaru, Landrover, Daimler Chrysler, General Motors and Opel/Vauxhall.  Each of DENSO’s aftermarket Lambda Sensors is manufactured to the same, OE standards to ensure  long, reliable operation and high levels of customer satisfaction.

The aftermarket range features heated and unheated Lambda Sensors (switching type), A/F sensors (linear type), Lean Burn sensors and Titania sensors; both direct fit and universal.  These include regulating sensors (fitted before the catalyst) and diagnostic sensors (fitted after the catalyst).  Many of the types of Lambda Sensors offered as part of the programme are unique to DENSO and not offered by other major brands. 

Today, almost every car has two lambda sensors installed: one control sensor and one diagnostic sensor for the catalytic convertor. High demand and on-going changes in emissions regulations means that there is extensive sales potential for garages, and parts suppliers in this growing sector.
