Violated by winter..
 

Well I was driving to work the other day when it was snowing and I hit a huge piece of ice, then my check engine light came on. I knew exactly what it was... The Primary O2 Sensor that plugs into the header, but what I didnt know is exactly what had happend to it... Well crawled under there to check it out and the connector on the Sensor side that connects to the sensor extension cable had the wires ripped out of it when I hit the peice of ice..The sensor is probably still fine just no way to plug it in:mad:, anyone know how much one of those sensors cost? I know they arent cheap.. Hopefully I can get them from the Auto store and not have to go to honda to get one..

Anyone have any thoughts on my situation???:rolleyes:

Well Autozone is telling me $219 for the sensor... WTF is that all about..

Wow, that's really expensive.

Have you tried places like www.car-parts.com or www.recycler.com yet?

Good luck.

Havent tried recycler yet.. Found a bosche sensor for $50 at The Parts Bin

as in bosch ??

I dont think you should do that RR..

:o

Its not a spark plug... ;)

Friend of mine put in in his teg and it worked fine.. I havent been able to find many other options..

whats wrong with bosch spark plugs :mad:
im running them w/o a problem, for now....cuz they were easiest to get ;)

I see.. Well if you must, then do it.
What about the warranty though?

what warranty?? On my car? I havent had a warranty on my car for over a year now.. but the sensor comes witha 12 month warranty..

try calling http://www.importautosalvage.com/ they might have something for you..

I was talking about voiding the 5 year warranty.

But if yours is finished, then no worries.

Mine was only a 36/36K warranty..

Since its only 1/4 if the price of the original you might as well give it a try..

If f'cks up, you can return it..

Exactly my thoughts..

I'd give it a shot, and if it works, great. If not, you're not out too much money, and you could possibly return it.
