Recently my front O2 sensor in my 1998 lude has gone bad. I took it off and gave it a good clean (back to its original color) and it was fine for about 100-150 more miles then it says it is bad again (check engine light came on again). It is a 4 plug so will I just be able to get another 4 plug O2 sensor from a civic/accord/any car with a 4 plug O2 sensor if the length permits and will it work properly again? Just wondering or I could just buy a brand new one, but those run kind of high. Thanks.

buying used o2 sensors is kind of.. worthless IMO

i'd buy a cheapo bosch for $20-30 before I'd buy a used one

 

Dude, you drive a Honda. Go to Advanced and get one.


Mine was $219

 

my corrado's o2 was roughly the same price.

 

might be covered under warrenty or try going to any honda dealership and give them your vin number and ask for any recalls or open campains. i lucky had a extended warrently on my car and they gave me a new exhaust manifold (cracked around o2 sensor), new o2 sensor, and free tune up.

 

warranty is out of the questions, mine expired long ago, plus a new one for mine, cheapest is 90 bucks for the plug one, then the other one where i have to cut the wires is around 50 bucks, dude I do not drive that cheap of a car to get a 20-30 doller one, I pay the price for driving a lude but I am happy with the results I get from it
