bad gas mileage. it basically puts the car in limp mode(running rich) so that it will make it to where ever it needs to be.

i picked up a universal o2 sensor for like 40 bucks. splice two wires and its done. (but its a bitch to get the old one out)
unfortunatly it seems that the newer the car, the more expensive the o2 sensors get. |
