Hi,

Rebuilding my 1989 911 3.2 and need to replace the CHT sensor that I cut the wire on during engine disassembly.

When I was researching upgrading to the 2 wire units with ground, people were saying they were roughly $100, so I wasn’t concerned about cost. Now I see the Bosch are unavailable, and the Porsche ones are $250-300.

Has anyone successfully tried the URO? They are < $100.

Really frustrating, as my one wire was working fine. I wish I would have done a recent price check before cutting wire.

I have also heard of people using 964 CHT in 3.2 Carreras. Can anyone confirm they have successfully done this? 1/3 of the price. Alternatively, does anyone have the temp/resistance curve of the 964 sensor? The 3.2 Carrera map is in the forums.

Thanks,

Mark

When someone makes a part supporting our cars, maybe give it a try. That way, they still keep making parts for our cars. If its bad, can you return it?

Hi guys, here's some additional info about our history. https://apaindustries.com/company/about

We're definitely an American company, with our headquarters and engineering lab located in Southern California. Our parts are manufactured in many countries, including Taiwan, China, Thailand, South Korea, India, Pakistan, Germany, and the USA.

It's an oversimplification, but we basically have three tiers of parts. The first tier consists of sourced economical parts that are the exact same parts you'd get from other aftermarket brands, but we try to offer a lower price. The middle tier are parts we've developed in-house, which are typically higher quality than our competition but are still very competitively priced. An example would be many of our idlers and pulleys, which are equipped with high-quality, name-brand NTN or NSK bearings whenever possible. The top tier are our URO Premium items, which we painstakingly develop to be higher quality in materials and/or design than OEM, but sell for roughly the same price as OEM.

Examples of URO Premium would include the BMW water pump pulley mentioned above, which is made of aluminum instead of the fragile OEM plastic, or a variety of plastic cooling system connectors which we upgrade to aluminum. Or repair kits that allow you to repair an assembly instead of replacing it, such as some automatic shifter assembly components for Mercedes, or a vacuum seal kit that allows you to repair your expensive Mercedes or Volvo brake booster (installation video shown here). Or our Intake Manifold Repair Kit for Mercedes M272 V6 or M273 V8 engines, etc.
