Robert Bosch LLC announced that it added 212 aftermarket parts to its portfolio in 2022, covering nearly 64 million vehicles in operation across North America.
The new Bosch products, which cover domestic, European and Asian passenger and commercial vehicles, include 74 braking parts; 52 fuel and water pumps; 14 ignition coils; 27 cooling fans, rotating machines, spark plugs and ESP units; 38 sensors; and seven fuel injectors.
Bosch Braking
Bosch released 74 high-quality braking parts for dozens of vehicle makes and models in 2022, including the increasingly important Bosch Police Pursuit brake pads, manufactured to meet the high demands of safety, reliability and stopping consistency for law enforcement.
Additional brake parts released in 2022 include the new QuietCast disc brake pads and Bosch Blue disc brake pads for late-model Asian, European, domestic and heavy-duty vehicles.
Bosch Cooling Fans
Six cooling fans have been released in 2022, covering nearly 1.2 million vehicles. The cooling fans are built to operate at high temperatures and under high loads that are common in traffic and towing conditions. Also, they provide sufficient flow while the vehicle is idle while operating with minimal noise, according to Bosch. The cooling fans are designed for domestic vehicles that may no longer be serviced under warranty but are prime candidates for serviceability in the IAM (independent aftermarket).
Bosch ESP Units
Bosch released two new ADAS and Body Electronics Line ESP hydraulic units, which cover a variety of European applications for Audi vehicles. Bosch ESP hydraulic units are a direct replacement for the original units, ensuring customers get high-quality parts each time. They offer easy installation without the need for any additional modifications to the original fitment.
Bosch Fuel Injectors
Seven Bosch GDI fuel injectors were released this year. They’re direct replacements for many domestic, Asian and European vehicles. The Bosch GDI fuel injector is a key enabler for engine downsizing, while maintaining desired horsepower. Additionally, the injectors provide exact flow and original spray pattern for optimal performance while enhancing a homogenous and lean-burn performance, according to the company.
Bosch Fuel and Water Pumps
Bosch released 52 new fuel-pump parts in 2022, including the Bosch auxiliary water pump, which is equipped with a sealed pump chamber, an independent heating system and an EV- and hybrid-compatible cabin heat- control system.
Additionally, Bosch released new GDI high-pressure pumps, Bosch electric fuels pumps, Bosch auxiliary water pumps and more, all to ensure a long, reliable service life. Bosch’s “Better Than OE Design,” ensures each part is tested to the same rigorous quality standards as OE fuel pumps to improve upon ease of installation and drivability of a vehicle, according to the company.
Bosch Ignition Coils
Bosch released 14 original-equipment ignition coils in 2022, featuring precise, corrosion-resistant connections to provide an extensive service life. The Bosch ignition coil is known for its wide coverage of Ford makes and models and is built to meet and exceed OEM specifications to improve upon the original component.
Bosch Rotating Machines
Bosch released 10 rotating machines in 2022 to cover nearly 1.2 million vehicles in the United States and Canada. All rotating machines are designed for fewer returns and warranty claims to maintain durability. Additionally, the rotating machines are full-load tested to guarantee compliance with strict Bosch performance specifications. The Bosch rotating machines have robust domestic and European coverage.
Bosch Sensors
Bosch has released 38 new oxygen sensors, designed to improve fuel economy while reducing harmful emissions. Bosch oxygen sensors are easy to install and meet or exceed OE performance specifications.
Additionally, Bosch released one new crankshaft sensor, which is designed to accurately detect engine speed – the main control variable for the ignition timing – and one new MAF (mass airflow) sensor, covering late-model Volkswagen and Porsche vehicles, to ensure low levels of harmful emissions.
Bosch Spark Plugs
Bosch has released nine new EVO, Bosch and Bosch Copper with Nickel spark plugs in 2022, all designed to ensure a reliable ignition throughout its service life – even under extreme pressure conditions in modern engines. Through improved design and development materials, the spark plugs are engineered to reduce the chance for damage and optimize vehicle function in the most extreme conditions.
