Help - Oxygen Sensor damaged

[hops]

Need your advise guys. I have a honda city 2004 model. Nabaha ako nung friday. Umilaw yung malfunction indicator lamp. i brought it to the casa the ff day. I found out today that the oxygen sensor needs to be replaced. 12k daw parts plus labor.

Should I go through with it? or shoud i pull it out and try other repair shops?

Hoping for your replies. Thank you.

Can i have this replaced outside service centers? say rapide or serviteK? can i buy the sensor in banawe where it will be much cheaper? or it would be safer to have it replaced in the casa since its an electronic item?

located ang oxygen sensor sa tanbutso ng car. kahit ikaw kaya mong palitan yon if 100% na sira yung oxygen sensor and walang problema sa wiring. alamin mo lang kung aling oxygen sensor yung papalitan? kung bank 1 sensor 1 ba or bank 1 sensor 2. sa mga american car na V8 4 pieces ang oxygen sensor sa mga 4 cylinder sometimes 1 minsan 2. sa mga american car like GM and Ford walang effect yung oxygen sensor sa peformance ng engine kahit naka-cancel na, d ko lang alam sa honda. oxygen sensor ang pinagkukunan ng reference signal ng computer para madetect kung good or bad ang emission.

There are two (on 4 cyl) - one before, and one after catalytic converter. You need a special socket to replace it but first I suggest you determine which one is bad by checking the code number.
Oh, those parts store casa guy that tell you that an O2 sensor is bad perhaps never mention that there are more than one. Don't get me started! With that 12 grand price tag plus labor is way, way, way too much beyond my expectation, even though Im not not really familiar about pricing in the philippines...this is absurb.

mahal ang o2 sensor. i've checked out its price here. i dont know for honda, but for mitsu lancer its 9k. as for the labor of around 3k, mahal sya para sa labor.

since nasa dealer ka na ipa erase mo muna at drive mo for few days

baka bumalik sa normal ang sensor

may mga universal sensors na puwede mong subukan kung gusto mo

baka mag work

One way of reviving O2 sensor is to run your car in a H-way for about an hour at cruising speed.
