06 Impalla SS; O2 sensor locations... My bro has an 06 Impalla SS, with 30K miles on it, bone stock. Car has been running a little rough, and got a check engine light today. We pulled the codes with VCM Scanner from HP Tuners, and this is what we got:
P0300 - Engine misfire
P0301 - Missfire in cylinder 1
Also, this is what we are getting for Bank 1 and Bank 2 injectors:
INJ B1 - 2.6
O2 B1 - 117
INJ B2 - 0
O2 B2 - 0
LT B1 - 7.8
ST B1 - -0.8
ST B2 - (-100)
LT B2 - (-100)
Now this would tell me that bank 2 O2 sensor is dead. I was looking for the O2 sensor locations on this thing, and I can't find them. Should there be 1 for each bank of cylinders? I have seen a few posts here about doing the plugs and wires. Is that necessary with only 30K miles?

yeah, there is no "bank 2" on our cars... there is only 1 bank...
one exhaust pipe, one cat conv.... so only one bank...
bank 1 sensor 1 is the O2 sensor before the cat... bank 1 sensor 2 is the O2 sensor after the cat...
if we had dual exhaust, then we would have a bank 1 and a bank 2... but we don't...
so you will never get any data for anything you log for bank 2...

i have a 08 impala ss and already have a catback exhaust and am about to order a DP with out a cat should eliminate the rear o2 or keep it i also have a intune tuner so i should be able to turn the cat off i hope i do not want a idiot light. thanks
intune wont turn off the light, you can clear it but it will come right back youll need to get it tuned out.
