I have a bad o2 sensor. I ordered the rear one, but I think it may be the front sensor. Is there any way I could use a rear sensor on the front?

wow the crazyness continues. I had the rear O2 sensor at home while I was at school, I cam back today and my dad threw it away. So the good news is he's buying me teh front sensor that I need. Which part number is the best, do-it-yourself O2 sensor? There's a $56 and a $85 on autopartswarehouse.

Well if your dad is springing for it I'd go with the $85 one wink.gif. But seriously I think the $85 is OEM and the cheaper one is aftermarket, so I would still go with the $85 one. The way I look at it is you don't really know what your getting with a cheap knock off, but with the OEM sensor you have lasted you 150K so an OEM replacement should last you about as long. Just my 2 cents though.

BTW, who throws away a brand new O2 sensor in the box???????????????
