Bosch Oxygen Sensor P/N:15358
Bosch 17230 oxygen sensor for the 2011-2012 BMW X3 6-cylinder 3.0L and other vehicles measures the oxygen in the exhaust so the engine computer can adjust the air-fuel ratio. This Bosch O2 sensor is an upstream, wide-band type.
A check engine light, rough running or poor fuel economy can mean a worn oxygen sensor, and an exhaust leak or damaged wiring can bring on those symptoms as well. Before replacing anything, look over the harness and connector for cracks or melted insulation, with the engine off and cool. If the sensor is the cause, this one replaces it.
This oxygen sensor fits the 2011-2012 BMW X3 6-cylinder 3.0L and the 2011 BMW 528i 6-cylinder 3.0L. The listing is one sensor, and the 2011-2012 BMW X3 6-cylinder 3.0L takes one.
