Why do you need a new one? Are you sure yours doesn't need to be cleaned?

Good deal. That usually takes care of it unless the little wires are damaged.

Hope you're right.
Wires were perfectly intact.

OE or OEM only. For engine sensors, I stick to OE or OEM. So either directly from a GM dealer website, or an ACDelco branded part specific to this car.

I never cheap out on sensors; I've read a thousand and one horror stories of people going through a bucket of cheap sensors, each failing somehow, until they plug in an OEM unit and it works fine.
