DENSO Auto Parts Oxygen Sensor P/N:234-4250
DENSO Auto Parts 234-4278 oxygen sensor for the 2009-2011 Mazda RX-8 rotary 1.3L measures the oxygen in the exhaust at the downstream position. The heated, narrow-band sensor is built and tested to strict OE standards.
A check engine light with an oxygen sensor code, or a drop in fuel economy, can mean the sensor is worn. Before you replace it, rule out wiring damage and an exhaust leak near the sensor, since either can throw a similar code.
This direct-fit Mazda RX-8 oxygen sensor is for the 2009-2011 model years with the R2-1.3L rotary engine. The 2009-2011 Mazda RX-8 rotary 1.3L takes one, and this listing is one sensor.
