Pre-Cat 02 error question

I was wondering, I have the following codes:

275D - Lambda control stop error bank 1
275E - Lambda control stop error bank 2

I know this is my pre-cat 02 sensors going bad. I was wondering is it okay to drive my car until the new ones come in?

Thanks in advance

Both at the same time? That is a little strange. Your fuel economy will probably suffer, but if it was drastically off you would get decreased power warning.

+1... Noticed you have an Evolve E600; maybe it (or the tune) is related to the sudden demise of both wideband O2s? Also, any work done on the car recently? I once had a car that the O2 wiring harnesses got damaged during a clutch change (pinched wires).

my car went into limp mode on my way home. I babied it all the way home with people reving at me and downshifting on my on the highway ha.

I purchased all four 02 sensors as when I put my evolve x-pipe on they were very dirty. I have a feeling that when I took them out I might of damaged them. But who knows. I am not sure when the 02s were changed, so I am glad I am able to do it now

Sometimes it’s the harness plug losing contact. Try bending the prongs and reinserting the plugs.
