I wish I knew that a couple weeks ago....I just payed $160 for my sensor. Didn't have time to test it myself or do the labor....cost me $300 out the door. But hey...at least the 951 is back on the streets!!

I've never seen these sensors on a Benz, they do have one that looks similar on the newer cars but the connectors are diff.
AWESOME!
I'm unable to check up on how much they are (I'm assuming these run for less than ours do) but hoping for the best! Hopefully they'll wind up being a VW or Audi part too.
