Is your quote fair?
A quote between $170 and $331 is inside the band where half of all Dodge Ram 1500 oxygen sensor replacements landed. Below it is not automatically a bargain (one downstream sensor in the open); above it is not automatically gouging (upstream air-fuel sensor, seized sensor extracted, two or more replaced) — but both ends deserve a question.
What moves the price
- Upstream vs. downstream — upstream air-fuel sensors cost more than downstream oxygen sensors.
- Seized threads — a sensor rusted into the exhaust adds time.
- One or several — V-engines carry four; shops replace what the codes name.
