Improve vehicle durability and reliability with Delphi Planar Sensors
Small part, big benefits. Simple design, revolutionary technology. That’s what you will be offering to your customers with Delphi planar sensors, the latest product line delivering OE performance that ensures improved reliability and durability for any vehicle. Delphi planar sensors equip the vehicle with a proven design that’s built to last up to 15-years/150,000 miles.
Worn-out or contaminated sensors can cause engines to run too rich, burning additional fuel and sending excess harmful emissions into the atmosphere. Replacing worn-out sensors with new Delphi planar sensors delivers increased efficiency with the industry"s fastest light-off time (LOT), putting the engine under fuel control operation quicker. By replacing the sensors, this then can help reduce harmful cold-start emissions by 40 to 50 percent, as well as improve fuel economy.
Delphi confidently stands behind its claims, having tested the reliability of its sensors by putting them through thousands of hours of more than 30 OE-demanded tests – including two dozen durability tests – to ensure they will last even under the toughest conditions. They passed. It"s this kind of testing that helps ensure that Delphi sensors can endure for the long haul.
The ability to deliver such quality, reliability and durability stems in part from Delphi"s decades of experience as an OE supplier of gas engine management systems. Since 1978, Delphi has manufactured more than 200 million oxygen sensors. Today, one out of every eight vehicles built globally carries a Delphi oxygen sensor. And unlike many other suppliers, all of Delphi"s oxygen sensors meet the high OE manufacturing quality standards.
Beyond their proven high-quality performance, Delphi"s planar oxygen sensors feature a patented protective sensor coating that leads the industry in contamination resistance to silicone, phosphorous and other fuel/oil additives such as E85.
Also, a unique multi-layer construction, made of zirconia and alumina, makes Delphi’s sensor elements ready and able to withstand thermal shocks and engine vibrations. In addition, Delphi"s proprietary “dry to touch” anti-seize compound aids in faster, no mess installations.
More than 70 percent of the vehicles on the road today can be upgraded to planar sensor technology. And, considering the fact that more than 3 percent of all vehicles require a replacement oxygen sensor annually, perhaps it"s time you provide your customer with one of the most durable sensors in the aftermarket. It’s a great line – with great features – so the opportunity is yours for the taking.
Boost Your Vehicle’s Performance With Delphi Fuel Injectors
Is your vehicle not performing as well as it used to?
Problems such as stalling, hesitation and poor acceleration are likely signs that your fuel injectors may need to be replaced. Fuel injector repairs are common as vehicles age and can take a toll on your vehicle’s performance if they are not replaced. So, it makes sense that when your vehicle needs new injectors, you ask only for the best. In this case – Delphi original equipment (OE) parts.
Delphi recently put its replacement fuel injectors to the test against the competition. The results show Delphi injectors excelled in several key areas, including:
- Flow curve, which measures the volume of fuel that an injector can spray into the engine within a certain amount of time for maximum acceleration and power.
- Voltage, which controls how injectors perform under different vehicle operating conditions, such as cold starting.
- Performance, which measures how quickly injector spray valves open and close to allow fuel to pass through to the engine.
- Spray test, which gauges spray direction and accuracy. The more streamlined an injector’s fuel spray, the more effectively fuel is mixed for combustion in the engine.
- Material composition, which tests the durability of the materials used to build injectors under extreme temperatures and also measures their resistance to corrosion.
In other words, Delphi replacement injectors operate better, respond faster and last longer than the competition. They are engineered and built for quality. Best yet, Delphi injectors are preferred by service technicians because they are identical to the injector that originally came in your vehicle.
It is also important to note that Delphi replacement injectors are designed to ensure that vehicle performance meets federal and state emission standards. When fuel doesn’t properly flow and mix with oxygen for smooth combustion, harmful toxins can be released into the air. With features such as a more direct fuel spray for fewer leakages, Delphi injectors can help vehicle owners pass emissions tests.
The future for automobiles is rapidly changing. More and more ethanol-powered vehicles are appearing on the road daily, and upcoming vehicles will need to adapt to these changes. Several of Delphi’s fuel injectors are already ethanol-friendly, meaning they have increased resistance to corrosion and allow for increased fuel flow for optimal performance. We are currently taking strides toward expanding our ethanol-compatible line.
Delphi injectors can help maximize your vehicle’s performance and engine life, making them a great choice part for any vehicle.

Release date: November 4, 2008
LAS VEGAS, Nev. — Delphi is launching new service and training product lines that are comprehensive in coverage and competitive in price, designed specifically for aftermarket shops that are looking to increase productivity and shop revenue. The announcement was made today at a press conference held at the Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) in Las Vegas.
“Our latest service product line provides both front-of-shop and back-of-shop solutions. Offered at a lower price, these tools can help increase service revenue despite economic downturns and decreases in capital,” said Gary Abusamra, vice president, global service operations, Delphi Product & Service Solutions. “With features that aide quick diagnosis, our products enable technicians to run as efficiently as possible, regardless of how many cars come into the shop.”
Service Products
DS650 is Delphi"s new, affordable front-of-shop solution for the independent aftermarket, aimed at maximizing a shops" profit by helping the service writer identify, extract and sell services. DS650 is easy to set up and comes with the software, vehicle interface, user guide and a cable that can be connected directly to the shop’s own personal computer. There is also an option to wirelessly integrate into the shop management system to provide increased efficiency for the vehicle check-in process.
A comprehensive product, DS650 focuses on the service write-up process. The software includes the Service Bay Quality Control Test (SBQC), which enables the service writer to perform an OBDII health check on the vehicle. Access to original equipment service bulletins is also provided. AutoIQ™ allows service writers to educate their customers by providing an easy-to-understand overview of the complex electronic systems installed on their vehicles, ultimately leading to increased customer confidence. In combination with the configurable vehicle walkaround visual inspection, the service writer has the necessary tools to efficiently sell valuable services when the customer drives into the service bay.
DS850 is Delphi"s new back-of-shop workflow management and vehicle diagnostic system. Similar to DS650, it is affordable because it can easily connect to an existing personal computer, making it simple for shop’s to integrate the software into their systems. In addition to the features offered with DS650 – SBQC, OBDII health check, service bulletins and AutoIQ – DS850 also comes with the DS450 OBDII scan tool, diagnostic information, access to a library of online training to keep the service technician’s skills honed, plus additional enhancements to complement the software.
Additionally, the DS450, which was previously only offered in a service product package, is now available for the first time as a stand-alone product. The bi-directional PC-based scan tool allows technicians to quickly access diagnostic trouble codes, data in a variety of formats, and command actuators, while viewing the results in the data view. The DS450 includes Mode $9 diagnostics, a diagnostic mode built into the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) in newer vehicles, presented in an easy-to-read, user-friendly format. The intuitive interface and reports enable the technician to educate the customer, increase revenue and build confidence. Snapshot/freeze-frame data views also help technicians diagnose intermittent problems.
The DS650, DS850 and DS450 provide full Asian vehicle manufacturer coverage, in addition to General Motors, Ford and Chrysler coverage. The entire DS product line adheres to AAIA’s i.SHOP connectivity standards, which enable seamless data integration with i.SHOP-compliant shop management systems, further enhancing shop efficiencies.
Training and Education Products
In addition to the new service products, Delphi continues its commitment to training and education, announcing the availability of 19 new or updated courses. The new courses were developed in response to the demand for OE-level training. Many focus on new technology and advanced vehicle systems diagnostics, such as gasoline direct injection. As an OE supplier, Delphi is designing and building vehicle systems that will mature into the aftermarket, and we are focused on helping technicians learn how they work, and how to effectively test and diagnose them. Covering a wide breadth of information crucial for the technician operating in today’s ever-changing automotive landscape, these products are now available to technicians through Delphi Product & Service Solutions.
Featured in the training product portfolio is “Introduction to Hybrid Electric Vehicles,” a new course on hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) technology. The course was developed as a collaboration between Delphi’s OE engineers, who are developing technology for today’s vehicles, and Delphi’s aftermarket service specialists. The course prepares diagnosticians with information they must know before attempting maintenance or diagnostics on hybrid vehicles.
The upward trend of fuel prices and an increased interest in reducing vehicle emissions has had a significant impact on consumer interest in hybrids. Vehicle manufacturers are producing more models of HEVs and sales are projected to more than double within 10 years.
“HEVs are gaining popularity. As the hybrid vehicle population ages and wears, more and more will come into the aftermarket for service,” said Abusamra. “As shops see more of their customers transitioning from internal combustion engines to HEVs, technicians must have the knowledge to diagnose and service these vehicles properly, in order to retain customers and help keep their shops profitable.”
Delphi"s hybrid training also shows that not all hybrids are created equal. There are many different types of systems with varying levels of complexity, and new HEV-related terminology that hasn’t yet become standard in the aftermarket. Delphi provides information on these systems – including Parallel, Series Parallel, Belt Alternator Starter and Plug-In — revealing that hybrid vehicles aren’t a mystery and independent shops can be competitive with service, diagnostics and repair of these vehicles. A demonstration training course and Self-Study Program are currently available. Instructor-led courses will be available in early 2009.
Delphi is also introducing a new training course targeted to the new family of diesel vehicles equipped with Common Rail Direct Injection. The hybrid and diesel titles, plus 17 more courses are available from Delphi to help keep technicians current on these and other new technologies. Delphi is a certified Continuing Automotive Service Education (CASE) provider.

Delphi Targets GM SUV Owners With Premium Navigation
Delphi has introduced the Delphi TNR800 (Touch Screen Navigation Radio) to the consumer market, combining advanced DVD-based navigation with AM/FM/CD without giving up the convenience, control and functionality of other connected accessories.
The Delphi TNR800 is uniquely designed for seamless integration and functionality in most 2003-2006 GM light trucks and SUVs including the Chevy Tahoe, Suburban, Trailblazer, Avalanche, Silverado; Hummer H2; GMC Envoy, Yukon, Denali; Buick Rainier; and, Cadillac Escalade. Collectively, these North American vehicles are the best selling in their class, but less than 10 percent were equipped with factory navigation.
The Delphi TNR800 has nearly all the advantages of the original equipment navigation system for these vehicles, including a large, 6.5" easy-to-read touch-screen display that makes inputting destinations or points of interest a simple task. Plus, it provides intelligent map and voice-prompt navigation cues to effortlessly help drivers and passengers get from point A to point B. Unlike conventional aftermarket navigation systems, the TNR800 retains the control and functionality of any installed original equipment accessories like XM™ Satellite Radio, On-Star™ and CD changer.
In fact, drivers can control key entertainment functions of the TNR800 through the steering wheel controls. And, because of its vehicle-specific design, the TNR800 can harness speed information, available through the vehicle’s computer system, to more accurately navigate a driver through urban environments where large buildings and bridges could obstruct the Global Positioning System satellites.
“Vehicle navigation systems have quickly become an everyday necessity for many consumers,” said Joe Damato, Director of Consumer Electronics for Delphi Product and Service Solutions. “Delphi’s new TNR800 offers GM owners without factory installed navigation system a product that delivers excellent navigation performance without the typical hassles of integrating devices that alter their vehicle interior or limit the control and functionality of important factory-installed options.”
The system uses an on-board computer that interacts with the Global Positioning System, vehicle sensors and a DVD map database to help guide travelers using voice prompts to their destination. Plus, it helps pinpoint locations along the way and re-maps directions should a turn be missed. Used as a “personal travel assistant,” it can help minimize travel time, make travel more convenient and increase driver and passenger peace of mind.
In fact, in a recent J.D. Power and Associates" 2005 Navigation Usage and Satisfaction Study, consumers rated several vehicles equipped with Delphi’s original equipment navigation system consistently higher than average in the areas of information screen ratings and overall appearance.
The TNR800 comes with single DVD-ROM containing “Navteq"s” popular and well-respected map database for both the US and Canada, enabling the system to provide a large network of turn-by-turn routable roads. The disc also provides more than 11 million POIs (points of interest) and can be sorted into different categories to make finding the nearest gas station, ATM or restaurant quick and simple.
The TNR800 is offered in three kit configurations. The luxury kit (NA-40005) supports all 2003-2006 Cadillac Escalade and GMC Denali. The non-luxury kit (NA-40010) supports 2003-2006 Chevy Tahoe, Suburban, Avalanche, Silverado; Hummer H2; GMC, Sierra and Yukon. An additional non-luxury kit (NA-40001) was designed to meet the needs of the 2003-2007 GMC Envoy, Chevy Trailblazer, and Buick Rainer. Each kit comes with all needed components for quick and clean installation including the Navigation Radio, GPS antenna, DVD maps (US and Canada), vehicle speed sensor (VSS) wire and splice kit, owner’s manual and installation guide.
“Mobile electronics professionals will delight over how easy and fast the TNR800 will install in these vehicles,” said Adiel Avelar, Navigation Business Line Manager. “All existing mounting hardware and wiring connections are the same used for the factory-installed radio and do not require special mounting kits, trim plates or expensive and unreliable translation boxes for the vehicle bus to maintain important features and control of factory accessories.”
The TNR800 offers a two year parts and labor warranty and has a Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $1,999. For more information about the TNR800 or its authorized distributors, please call 877-667-8700.
