Cel P0153
Went to the parts store this morning and purchased a Actron scanner for $50 on sale and plugged in to see why my CEL light went on, and got code P0153. The book that comes with the scanner has a list of codes and it reads:
"P0153 O2 Sensor CKT Slow Response (Bank 2 Sensor 1)" After doing a search on the forum I guess this means the pre-cat left sensor. I plan on just replacing, I was just curious the details of the "slow response" if anyone has any knowledge...?? Perfectlap, looks like you are getting this for the second time, any words of wisdom? |
My understanding is that thsese 100K mile parts sometimes go early. I'm not yet at 50K miles But time is a factor too, my car is on year seven. The CEL code means the sensor is fading.
$170 I had a local mechanic replace the original with a Walker and it didn't cure the CEL. He's the only mechanic in my area that will touch a Pcar for these trivial 5 minute jobs that are quickly done with a lift. All other mechanics look at the car and say no way. I'm going to order the BOSCH and see if that helps. |
Because of the age of your car, it probably is the oxygen sensor(s) going. But, it could also be a number of other issues including, bad cat, MAF, or a vacuum leak somewhere after the MAF. Best of luck, I am sure not fond of the CEL's....

Potentially stupid question:
I cleared the code my newly purchased diagnostic tool, if the problem persists wont the CEL continue to stay on? |
