Default I'm having both of my pre-cat O2 sensors replaced under warranty this Thursday...(m)

... can I expect any noticable performance differences (e.g. would these have caused any performance problems)? I've only had the car for 2 months and, as far as I can tell, these sensors have probably been bad (or dying) that entire time. There is no CEL, but my VAG-COM shows 2 codes (B1, S1 Internal Resistance Too High, Intermittent; B2, S1 Internal Resistance Too High, Intermittent); I forget if it was "...too high" or "...too low", but you get the idea.

Default Nope, not with those intermittent codes - the O2 sensors were still switching/reading OK

I think that reistance is related to the effectiveness of the heating element, not the signal itself.
