replacing bank 1 post cat oxygen sensor myself

Dave07997S · 04-19-2013, 02:03 PM

how far up is the harness for this? Any help greatly appreciated. I don't think I should have to drop the xpipe...

Harness is no problem. Clearance to pull the O2 sensor out will be a little tight. I had my xpipe down when I removed the sensors and haven't tried to do it when Xpipe was installed.

Real easy task, connecting plug is very accessible and visible. 10 min task

I just did my bank 2 pre-cat 02 a couple weeks ago...pretty easy. Not exactly 10 minutes for a first timer (I tend to take my time), but no more than 30 when you count setup time (jacking car up, jack stands set up, etc). You have to drop the metal shield to get to the xpipe and sensors. That's about 10 bolts I think...but once you get that off it's fairly easy access.
