DTC O2 sensor code (m)

I have piggie pipes and a Borla catback. I got the Bank 2 Sensor 1 code, replaced it, and same code came back again.

Any ideas?

Are you sure you replaced the correct sensor?

What code specifically? Slow response? Resistance too low? Implausible signal?

you know, the dealer has been known to make mistakes...

if you replace the 02 sensor, and clear the code, it shouldn't come back.

maybe the cats are no good and not catalyzing anymore?

dealer screw up most likely.

Re: DTC O2 sensor code (m)

Really need to know which code exactly it is just like Mat said. Especially if it is an O2 sensor bank X system too lean. Typically that will be caused by a vacumn leak.
