Attack those o2's first. those should take care of those misfire codes.

 

2end that and mabey new pluges and boots

 

Previous owner put new denso plugs in right before he sold it. He said he also replaced the rear sensors. So i guess i'll try replacing the front ones. Anybody in the GA area want to help me with that? Also where should i get new sensors from?

 

Dont call for densos. throw those out. get bosch platins I believe

 

any other advice or ideas? Is the dealer the best place to get those o2's?

 

Also, anyone know what the P1602 is referring to? and what about the P1569?

 

You can do them yourself. but its a bitch for the top ones. otherwise its pretty pricy

 

The last owner said he just replaced the back ones...so it looks like i will be replacing the front ones now. Any idea about how long it should take me? Any special tools i might need?

 

I had the same problemin my1st year of ownership. I had severale misfires always on the same
bank of cyl. Also throwing codes for O2 sensors. It was EGT sensor for the cyl bank involved.
EGT sensor is pricey approx 300 $ not to difficult to change on pass side but harder on drivers side. If you plan to change O2 sensor at the front, the best way i tryied so far is a 10" ext. with a flex coupler and the O2 lambdatool (30$)sold at ECTuning. It's not easy but it's makable within an hour of work.

Good luck & keep us posted for your conclusion.
