Just got a quote of $350+ to replace an O2 sensor at the dealers. And had it been the other sensor it would have been $450+. I guess they told me that to make me feel better.

My Porsche sensor cost $110 and $49 labor to install.

Generic sensors cost $25.

My Porsche has been cheaper to maintain than my Honda or Accura over the last 2 years by a bundle.

So the Honda is cheaper to maintain mantra isn't always true.
