Yeah, my truck has 134k miles and O2 sensors looked stock. Ask me if I would ever change them again LOL . What a pain in the ****!!! Hated every part of it, at least on passenger side, other one was piece of cake

Fought with my passenger side when I changed mine a yr ago but realized afterwards that removing that tire makes it way more accessible especially for the plug. You can reach right in there. remove the splash guard too

Yeah, I squeezed my hand thru the splash guard to be able to grab the plug, that was the hard part. Removing the actual sensor from the cat wasn't terrible. Anyways, i hated every part of it. I rather change plugs and coils that do this again

Well, I think I got excited too soon about my truck's idling issue being gone. After driving it for a couple of days its back to what it was before. I disconnected the battery when i replaced the O2 sensors so im guessing that after the "idling relearn process" it went back to its old ways. Now I wonder what the real problem is

Did you ever end up finding your problem?

Still dealing with this issue. Can't figure it out. It's driving me nuts. Only thing i haven't done is a compression test. Don't know if it's worth the pain
