yes this is a common problem, my o2 sensor went out at like 65k, it was the front right on, i got mine for 60 bux and didthe install myself, it is very very easy, dont dare pay a dealer to do it!! get the haynes manual and ull be set. i repeat, unless you have figured which end of a pen to write with, do it yourself

Where do you get them for $60? I'm going to get a Y pipe and I'm going to replace the fronts while I'm down there.
