I picked up a a blue tooth obd2 reader off amazon and bought an app called torque. Less than 30 for both and I just leave it on the car. Does anything u can think of. Codes, monitors, diagnostics etc. Never gotten so much for so little coin.

You know you need a o2 sensor socket to take it off or a flare nut wrench big enough to grab the socket. The socket/wrench should be a 7/8. Cut the wires and get the other one on using the open end. You can try a pipe wrench but the more you damage the nut the worse its goin to be to get off.

You just got lucky its wasn't that tight them or heated stuck. I did mine the same way with a open end wrench but unlike trex his is stuck good, which happens 90% of the time. I got one too if your goin to jy tomorrow we can swap it there.

thanks i like doing these little things that help it run nice... wanna venture under the hood next and replace spark plugs and wires, and might end up getting the other o2 sensor anyways, they say there good for about 120,000-150,000 miles im at 160

so my unlock button dosnt unlock anything any more im guessing a fuse, havent checked yet but will soon, makes a click noise towards the dash area when i press it... it did work once today when i tried it randomly, but hasnt worked for a few days
