Edit: Oh and it'll be stuck on there pretty good. Invest in a high quality O2 socket and some anti-seize for the new one.
Roger that man, thank you soo much bro, done deal. I swear man, I owe you a beer.

It's dead, Jim.

That is basically COST for that sensor. I got mine for $184 each and that WAS cost.

You won't find a better deal!

No worries, glad I could help.

Just don't ever use an impact on your exhaust without taking out those sensors first. And never touch the sensor to anything.

hehe yeah. Onboard wideband sensors are relatively new in the industry, the older sensors that are more commonly used aren't nearly as sensitive to vibration, debris etc.

Our cars hardly even seem to care if the downstream sensors work or not (they are narrowband). As far as my car knows, my cats are working just perfectly and they haven't been on the car in almost a year... lmao.

If you know anyone at a dealer they get them for $150 and some change.

eastwest2300 12-28-2012 08:51 AM

yeah man, as soon as we finished the install, turned on the car.. they came right on. I was told to stick some steel wool inside the j-bung of each cat. That unfortunately didnt clear any codes.. ughhh.
whoever installed it probably damaged the sensor

Prices must have come down, thank God for that.

Oh snap, my bad, I paid $140 for mine @ cost, just looked up my records.

Still, Z1's price is great unless you have dahookup at a stealership.

Hes always been great with any of my sales. Highly recommended.

I guess thats why ive never had this happen to us. Weve worked on lots of different vehicles including multiple 370s and never had this happen. Im still sketchy on it being the actual cause but meh. EW let me know if you need any help you have my number.
