Default o2 sensor switch and test.

I have the Oxygen Sensor Circuit Slow Response on bank 1 sensor 1. I deleted the codes and I switched the 2 front sensors with eachother. Im trying to find out if the sensor is bad. I have the car idleing now. How long is it gonna take before a code comes up so I can tell if its the sensor or not? Do I need to drive the car 100 friggin miles or what? lol

May not do it again until there's been some drive cycles.. Or, it may be cured when U unplugged them, and replugged them.. As in a bad connection....

I had this problem a month ago so I replaced the o2s with the extras I had. Everything was great for a month. Yesterday I noticed a small inconsistancy with the idle so I pluged in the obd and the code is back. I wouldnt care about the codes but my idle is a little funny. Not alot,infact some people might not even notice but I know its there.

ok I drove the car like 10 miles and now im getting a p0153. The same code as p0133 except its the opposite side. That must mean the sensor is bad. I think im headed for a viscious cyle though cause I just swapped them out a few weeks ago also. I dont wanna have to keep buying o2s every few weeks.

Anyone?
