P0160 code(heated 02 sensor) Well I got a code that popped up the other day which was P0160. Which is according to stengel.site is
P0160 Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) Circuit Insufficient Activity Bank 2Sensor 2. I'm also getting p0171/p0174 but that happened after I put on the vararm airbride, and ported throttle body and removed maf screen. I read up you get those lean codes when you add that airbride though.
I noticed that before I got the code and would get on the car I would get a funky smell coming from the cat area like almost rotten egg/sulfur smell. My city gas mileage is now 14-15mpg but highway still about 28-30mpg. A few weeks later this code came up. So I am assuming one of the 02's are going out already? Car is a 01 C5 with 58K. Which of the four 02's is it? Also I was wondering if it's one of my front 02's can I use one of my rear 02's since I will be having those deleted with the tune I'm getting from ECS and just plug the rears? Thanks
