In addition to what Blue62 said about simple tests with a multimeter for the P0134, you can also try swapping the O2 sensors from one side to the other and see if the problem moves.

Are you familiar with the reference of 'bank 1, sensor 1'? That's the most forward O2 sensor on the right side.
I agree that you could test the O2 sensor by swapping it from one side to the other.
But that is a lot of work compared to testing it and associated wiring with a multimeter which only takes a few minutes. And no wrenching involved

Assuming that Laredo has a multimeter and is familiar with the pin-out, yes. Even swapping the sensor requires possessing a proper wrench and that may not be the case, but is easier to figure out if unfamiliar.
