Default CEL - again after fitting a new primary O2 sensor....

Looks like I got a faulty sensor unless there is anything alse which can cause the 17521 code?

I am still on the lookout for the EGT sensor but this does not seem to trigger the CEL?

I guess I am right in taking B1 as 'my' drivers side (RHD) or US Passenger side?

That is what I thought. The sensor I fitted is a Bosch 4 wire which looks similar to the one I removed but I had to switch the connector over as it had just long tails.

Are all 4 wire zirconia the same in their heating element and output voltages?

No. O2 sensors are vastly different. Universal sensors are not. Make sure you select the correct part number. Like spark plugs, just because they look the same and fit does not mean they are the same or even similar.
