[QUOTE="haywire, post: 626010, member: 16474"] Changed o2 sensors (both pre-cats) Already did the o2 sensors bro this morning before 8 while the engine is cold. Thanks for the tools. Definitely I need to buy these. For others, my car has had the o2 sensor alarm since I got the car when scanned with PA Soft, but before this it only warns of the electricity voltage or something like that and the sensor is still working. On Tuesday finally both the pre-cat o2 sensors gave up life. At first I had an Engine Check Light on, without any difference to how the engine runs. Scanned the car and confirmed its the o2 sensors. Went to see huskar3399 above to borrow his o2 sensor removal tool and planned to do it in Batu Pahat this raya season, but since yesterday the car started running rough and when scanned the cylinder 1,2, and 3 are misfiring. So this morning I decided to change the o2 sensor, before going through the traffic jam to Batu Pahat tonight. The o2 sensor were not new, they were from Harbhajan's car. 7.15 am this morning [IMG]http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7273/7798683432_0ef4747983_c.jpg[/IMG] Tools borrowed from huskar3399 (thanks!)
