Replacement O2's I went to the dealer today intending on buying replacement front O2's. They told me the Bank 2 sensors were both the same (F&R), and the Bank 1 sensors were the same (F&R), but that the part numbers for each side were different.
I thought we used the same part number for the front O2's, and a different part number for the rears? The rear's are disabled, and I'm just looking for the appropriate O2's for the pre-cat locations.
I had read some other threads indicating that with a higher duration ( I have a 228/228) cam it may help to use a rear O2 sensor in the front - but that seems to contradict the info given by the dealer..
