soo i just bought a LaBree HFC nd have my car taken appart bought new gaskets and thinking of jus replacing both the O2 censors....soo i called auto-zone napa kragen and they are all 200 or soo each one...anyone know a place were they might be cheaper? not in a huge hurry but i want to get this done asap so i can get back on the streets....

thanx for any help and input...

 

is there anything wrong with the present o2 sensors? if not, then why not save that 200 or so until needed.

 

well the censors have over 100k on em soo its a bitch to get to da second 1 by da downpipe soo yea might as well while i have it taken appart....

 

ecstuning.com will save you $50 and they will be OEM replacements unlike autozone. at 100k miles its not a bad thing to do. O2 sensors are a maintenance item and need replacement every once in a while. you only need to replace the pre-cat sensor unless the other one is specificly throwing a CEL.

 

Hey Nova...just wondering if you've had a CEL come on since you put on the HFC from LaBree.

I installed a LaBree HFC about 6 or 8 weeks ago and it's been fine up until today when my CEL came on.

The only thing that has changed was that last weekend I installed a new high flow exhaust manifold from ATP. Now the CEL is on and the code reads:

P0422
Main Catalyst
Below Threshold
(Bank 1)

Anyone?

 

Nova - if you are going to change them, ecstuning.com sounds like a good way to go.

Ryan (threadjacker)- are you chipped? I had the same issue and I needed a re-flash and now I have no more issues.

 

Sorry...didn't mean to highjack the thread...I just saw that he was using a LaBree HFC.

No, I'm not chipped. I'll shoot you a PM so we can talk about what you did to fix the issue.

 

umm is it your sensors?
i havent replaced them they are still fine didnt get a cel...
yes i just got chipped from speedtuning and everythings fine...

 

if you want a cheep O2 sensor and you have a ATW engine, then you could get one of the volkswagen ones that was on recall. its about $30.

I dont know if it will work in both positions however.

 

my question is, was it the 250 dollar one they sell?
