Default part compatibility for oxygen sensor Bank 1 sensor 2

I have a 2001 Lexus GS430. Is Bosch 13544 good replacement for my car's oxygen sensor Bank 1 sensor 2?

Dont mess with anything other than OEM. The specifications are way too tight. If you want you can try, but the consensus is that stick with OEM.

No need for OEM...waaayyy too expensive. Denso aftermarket A/F sensors are fine. Have installed many over the years and all performed well except one which lasted only 50k miles.

Yes, Denso makes OEM sensors for Toyota but Denso aftermarket sensors are not necessarily the same. Many, many manufacturers who make OEM parts also have healthy aftermarket business with parts made to a lesser spec.

Sensors are one of those things you should pay the extra $$$ to get a part that works.
