BROADVIEW, Ill. – Robert Bosch LLC has introduced 40 new part numbers to expand its braking, engine management sensor and Long Haul (HD) Starter lines.
 
Twenty-one new brake pad numbers have been added to the Bosch QuietCast and Bosch Blue Disc Brake Pad lines. Seven of these new additions are for premium grade Bosch QuietCast brake pads. Overall, these additions expand the availability of Bosch braking components for late-model domestic and Asian applications by 1.3 million units in operation (UIO). While all-new QuietCast SKUs come with hardware kits, the Bosch Blue sets are offered both with and without hardware kits.
 
Engine Management Sensors
The 16 new sensor part numbers from the Bosch Engine Management group extend Bosch coverage by 1.4 million late-model domestic and European vehicles in operation.  These are true, direct-fit sensors for applications ranging from Ford Fusion to Cadillac STS, and from Fiat 500 to Porsche Cayman.
           
Long Haul Starters
The Bosch Rotating Machines group has released three new Long Haul Starters that replace 186 competitive part numbers. Engineered with many technical features, Bosch Long Haul Starters are designed to outlast and outperform most OE starters in heavy-duty on-road commercial applications.
