    Currently in need of a Merc NoX sensor, coming in here at € 600-700, so wondering if there's anywhere else in EU I could get a GENUINE one at a better price.

    I already did the non-genuine replacement trip and it didn't last and caused more errors, so only interested in genuine merc part.

    Have you tried pricing in NI? Could be worth a "field trip" to collect it although I am guessing you are looking for EU to try to avoid that. 🙂

    I remember large differences in parts prices between Irish and UK Suzuki dealers when I was looking for parts a few years ago. That was pre-Brexit though.

    replacing with an unknown is no guarantee of a cure.

    You’d probably pick one up for close to €50. Its a no brainer if your saving over €600

    try a german car parts specialist like OTTO - a good quality spurious part is worth a go

    Already did a new non-OEM part and all it didn't work out : I suspect, being reverse-engineered, that their firmware is buggy. Sensor randomly stops communicating, stops sending data etc. Car has been in 3 or 4 times now and I'll have spent the price of OEM parts in labour shortly.
