04-13 error code - need help

Hey guys,

So my mom's car is popping up with a 04-13 error code which is an upstream oxygen sensor circuit slow reponse fault (left bank). How do I fix this? Replace the O2 sensor? What is the difference between the left bank and right bank? Also, which sensor is it, before the cat or after the cat? There is a price difference between the two according to Autozone. Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Mike

Thanks. But which one should I be replacing? The one before or after the cat? Or both? Also, I'm still lost on the left and right bank thing as there are only 2 O2 sensors.

Also, what is the torque spec for the O2 sensors?
